Sun, 28 Jun 2026 18:53:51 -0700

How do you unblock sites on an HP Chromebook? I’ve been trying for 4 years but I can only seem to unblock one website. More specifically, how do I delete the website blockers? By these, I mean Relay and Lightspeed User Agent. When I go to the part that says to uninstall extension it says that I cannot cause of Admin. How can I fix this?

Asus Laptop FX505D: The Screws in the labtop have fallen out

Sun, 28 Jun 2026 12:44:07 -0700

The screws in the bottom part of the laptops have fallen out. What do I do about this? I'm fairly sure that I should just take it too a local electronic fixing store. But I am unsure how much that would cost. Also I went to home advisor and it said that the job would cost about 300 dollar's and that seemed unreasonable, how much would this really cost?

Toshiba Satellite: Toshiba Satellite P50-A Bios password removal

Sun, 28 Jun 2026 09:24:56 -0700

I have a nearly year old Toshiba Satellite P50-A. Recently I shut down the computer to install windows updates and when I booted up again it went through the Toshiba splash screen and then prompted "Enter password". I know this is the bios password however I am positive I did not set it. I have already tried removing it by taking out the battery and CMOS battery and draining power but that did not work. I also tried using "Toshiba" and "TOSHIBA" as I have seen them listed as backdoor passwords. I cannot find the reset pins anywhere on the motherboard and no one online has had this problem on as new of a laptop as mine. Toshiba no longer covers this under warranty so I need some help! Thanks.

Lenovo ThinkPad T14s Gen 3: The mouse cursor not showing / Thinkpad

Sun, 28 Jun 2026 04:50:41 -0700

Hi,

I'm having a problem with my Lenovo ThinkPad T14s Gen 3. The mouse cursor disappears from the screen, and the touchpad becomes unresponsive, although the right-click button still works.

I was able to fix the issue temporarily by uninstalling the touchpad driver and restarting the laptop. However, after a while, the problem comes back.

Could you please help me identify the cause and suggest a permanent solution?

Thank you.

Lenovo Yoga 920-13IKB: Why is my SSD not detected in BIOS?

Sun, 28 Jun 2026 01:15:11 -0700

I’ve used this laptop for about 3 years up to this point with a few issues (broken fingerprint reader, spotty WiFi card). I turned on my laptop and it read, “Default Boot Device Missing or Boot Failed”. So I entered the BIOS and under the Hard Drive description it says, “Not Detected”. I was able to get my computer to boot after a few restarts, but my computer often blue screens and displays, “Default Boot Device Missing or Boot Failed”. My computer will constantly either not boot when I turn it on, or blue screen. I have seen a few others with this issue, is this issue prevalent in Lenovo Yoga 920-13ikb’s?
