Hello all! I have been troubleshooting an issue with my GS Stealth 63 8RE VR laptop for about two months now. The original issue was my ethernet port stopped reading my cable during use, I tried unplugging and plugging back in. I tried restarting the computer. I then tried uninstalling and reinstalling the driver and that made things alot worse. The killer e2500 driver would no longer install (killer network suite would just say no compatible device found) and I was getting nowhere. That went on for about two weeks and one day I turned the computer back on and it was working and the drivers had somehow reinstalled itself.

The USBKill is a device that stress tests hardware. When plugged in power is taken from a USB-Port, multiplied, and discharged into the data-lines, typically disabling an unprotected device.
Used by penetration testers, hardware manufacturers, law-enforcement and industrial clients world-wide, the USBKill has been adopted the industry standard for USB Stress-testing.
The USBKill V4 caters specifically to industry needs: significantly more powerful, more flexible, more covert and more compatible.
A USB killer is a device that is designed to be portable and sends high-voltage power surges repeatedly into the data lines of the device it is connected to, which will damage hardware components on unprotected devices. Companies selling the device state it is designed to test components for protection from power surges and electrostatic discharge.[1][2][3]
In April 2019, a student at College of Saint Rose in Albany, New York pleaded guilty to destroying 66 computers in his college using a USB killer.[7] He also destroyed seven computer monitors and computer-enhanced podiums. He was sentenced to 12 months in prison, followed by a year of supervised release. He was ordered to pay $58,471 in restitution.[7]
When Killer is MIA, on Device Manager toolbar, click View>Show hidden. Do you see any "Unknown Device(s)" listed anywhere in Device Manager? Right-click and uninstall any Unknown(s) and then on toolbar click Action>Scan for new hardware. Does Killer appear and work again?
Hi there - I had the same issue. If you go to device manager, killer wireless, update driver, browse for drivers on my computer, let me pick, and select the Qualcomm option, you should be up and running again
So here is what I am seeing. I did all the things that everyone posted. I installed 22h2. Wireless adapter is not starting now...it isn't gone, it just now has this ! next to it and the details show it is not starting?? I uplugged and held power down. I uninstalled killer wireless and restarted. Nothing is working.
This did it!! Thank you. It does not give an option to remove software, but it does give an option to remove drivers. Put a check mark on that, then scanned for new hardware, it recognized Killer Wireless and I went into Network Center and connected to my wifi. Weird, but hey...it worked!
And that gets to the crux of the painful choices Microsoft and its hardware partners will have to make with Windows 10X devices. Are they willing to compete on cost, selling them for as little as $300 or even less? Or will they build the devices with more powerful hardware and charge a premium?
I have windows 11 preinstalled which is fully functional. Wifi is perfectly working in it. I've the most up to date bios, however in bios there is absolutely no option mentioning wifi, yet it somehow works in win11. My laptop doesn't have any physical wifi switch button (I triple checked that). There is only hotkey to toggle BT but that doesn't affect the Wifi.
So I've installed Zorin as dual boot in addition to that windows 11, and it turns out wifi is not working.
Please help. This is my first linux experience and I don't know much of it yet, but I really want to switch over from windows, and if I find ways for all my necessary software then I'll even start using it in my business. Zorin feels rly great!
Arch totally freezes, when running out of memory. OOM killer doesn't kick in.
This means, every time I fail to properly manually(!) monitor and react to memory usage, my system dies. I experience the same thing on all my 3 separate Arch installations.
I have lots of current experience with Ubuntu and CentoOS/Amazon Linux as well. This problem doesn't exist there, OOM killer is triggered every time the system runs out of memory. Could someone please help me figure out how to configure Arch to do the same thing?
Akuthota bought one of these devices online and delivered its powerful payload to 59 Windows workstations and seven Apple iMacs. He also tried to damage other hardware with it, the complaint against him says.
The hapless vandal must now pay back $58,471 to the college, covering the cost of hardware replacement and staff time. He also faces a maximum of ten years in prison followed by up to three years of supervised release, along with a potential $250,000 penalty.

An advanced credential phishing campaign that recently breached Twilio and other top-tier security companies, for instance, failed against Cloudflare for one reason: Unlike the other targets, Cloudflare used FIDO-compliant hardware tokens that were immune to the phishing technique the attackers used. The victims who were breached all relied on weaker forms of MFA. Advertisement
There has been several times in this life as a technology journalist when expanding my wireless network would have helped what I do. However, as is usually the case, my single wireless connection in my device is the one picking up the other Wi-Fi available, and cannot be used as an access point itself. Similarly, in a home, using a device to temporarily extend a wireless network for a better connection has obvious uses. Rivet Networks, the company behind the Killer networking controllers, now has the hardware and software in place for its Killer AC 1550 module to both connect to an access point and become an access point without an additional radio.
Extending a network without laying cable is typically done through Wi-Fi repeaters, extenders, or powerline adaptors with additional wireless radios. In order to get additional coverage, more radios are needed. Rivet Networks believes that the wireless modules within a PC can help bridge the gap, by making them act as access points to the network without the need for additional hardware.
The Killer optimization tool, to recap, splits traffic into one of six priority levels. Based on a constantly updated whitelist, and a bandwidth learning tool that can detect if a user is in a game or video or download just by looking at the traffic, the Killer hardware will adjust the queue of traffic for higher priority items. By default, the system uses the following six priorities:
The bottom slot only supports 2280 size SSDs, so if you want to use a shorter SSD you need an M.2 extension adapter. The killer feature is this slot is PCI Express Gen 3 x4. That means you can get up to 4 Gigabytes per second through it!
But here I'm more interested in comparing ARM boards. And the Rock 5 is a huge upgrade over the Raspberry Pi 4, in terms of hardware and capability. Everything is faster, and by a lot. There's tons more IO, at the expense of a little extra board space.
But focusing just on the hardware, the Rock 5, at $150 and up, is in a completely different price class. A tiny PC, complete with Power supply, a case, a hard drive, and even a Windows license, costs less than the base model Rock 5. And that's before you even add in necessities for the Rock 5 like a case and power adapter!
Radxa's done a decent job building up the Rock 5 ecosystem around the RK3588. Besides the Raspberry Pi, this is the best experience I've had with an ARM SBC. But it still has a long way to go before I would call it a 'Pi killer'. Docs need to be more beginner-friendly, the community needs to be less insulated in Discord, and the chip needs more mainline support.
The Rock 5b boots, but the LED stays blue and never turns green. But again, it still fully boots. But there is no hardware visible.
When I connect via serial console, you can login. Running lspci shows nothing.
Congrats on the nice new build, i stopped throwing nice PC hardware at WoW ages ago, no matter what i seem to do, they all seem to have trouble holding 60+ FPS while on ultra in raid settings. These days i just replace my GPU every 3ish years and PC every 6 ish years and play on medium/high @ 60fps.
P.S. near instant boot up to desktop is a nice thing too about nvme drives when paired with a fast/ultra boot motherboard feature (which virtually every motherboard should have these days), can get to windows desktop from a cold boot in about 5 seconds.
Crabgrass is an annual weed that mainly grows in the summer when the ground is warm. It will die naturally as soon as the ground frosts. Since crabgrass can spread quickly, you can nip the overgrowth in the bud with a non-selective weed solution that is specifically formulated as a grass killer.
