Question from Shruti: Hi, Rick. I hope you’re doing well.
I have a Dell XPS 13 9370 Ultrabook. Everything was fine until this morning when my screen just turned grey-ish black.
I had dropped my laptop and slightly cracked the top right edge of the screen along with one of the hinges a few months back but everything seemed to still be working fine.
I don’t know why this suddenly happened.
I have important data on this machine so I’d like to know if there is any way to retrieve the data without fixing the screen? [Read more…]

A while back I wrote a post that explains how to add super-fast USB 3.0 ports to an older PC, and that post seemed to resonate with lots of folks.
Well, a lot has changed since then…
Now you can add five much faster USB 3.2 Gen 2 ports to your desktop computer for about what you’d pay for a really good pizza.
Whether you have a Windows desktop PC or a Mac desktop, the procedure is basically the same as long as your machine has an open PCIe expansion slot. And it’s easy…
Simply purchase this 5 Port SB 3.2 Gen 2 adapter card and install it into the empty slot.
If you have a Mac running a recent version of macOS you won’t even have to install a driver for the adapter card.
Windows users will be able to download the latest driver directly from the manufacturer’s website.
Just to clarify, this card will not work in a laptop. However, it will work with any desktop computer that has a compatible (and currently unused) PCIe expansion slot.
If you thought your external USB hard drive or other device was fast, you’ll be completely blown away when you first plug a USB 3.2 Gen 2 device into this expansion card!

Scams and hoaxes of all types pop up every day on Facebook, and some of them have a habit of rearing their ugly heads time and time again.
These recurring hoaxes are often more annoying than dangerous, but it’s still good to avoid them whenever possible.
I have received several messages over the past few days asking about the legitimacy of a recurring hoax that’s currently making the rounds again. [Read more…]

Do you have a WordPress blog that is slow to load in a web browser?
If so, I recommend that you take steps to speed it up right away, for two important reasons:
1 – Most people will only wait a couple of seconds for a web page to load before clicking the back button and going to a different website.
That means if your blog’s pages load slowly it’s a good bet that many of your potential readers aren’t hanging around to read your posts.
2 – Google is now actively penalizing slow loading pages via their search algorithm. That means fewer visitors will find your blog when they search for a term that’s relevant to it.
Luckily, there are several things you can do to speed up your blog so it can reach its full potential: [Read more…]
