    Dish Network DTVPal DVR Problem

    I have a DTVPal DVR that was made by Dish Network. They stopped producing and servicing this unit.
    The problem I have is that the picture will intermittently distort like it's receiving a weak signal. After so many of these the unit will lockup, and need to be reset. The signal strength is good, and I don't see anything obvious on the mainboard or power supply board.
    I tried heating the boards to see if the problem would get worse, but it didn't. I tried disconnecting the antenna to see if it would do it when just watching a recorded movie, it still does it.
    I've not checked to voltages yet.
    Anyone know what the problem might be?

      Home network connection problem
      by davg
      I just bought a new ThinkPad laptop and I need to connect it to my home network. I have several computers on my network and can see each other in File Explorer and the older ones can communicate with each other (even with the new one) but the ThinkPad can see the other computers but can't communicate with them. I get the (network error 0x80070035 The network path not found). I tried several scenarios that I found on line but none of them worked?? Since the other computers on the network can communicate fine I'm assuming the problem is with the setup of the ThinkPad? All computers are running Windows...

      Hi. I have a problem that has been going on for some time (2-3 years). It's hard to explain what it really is. Sometimes, my computer stops playing music, stops videos (starts buffering on youtube), there is no sound in games and when I minimize the game window and return to the game there is a black screen with window borders...

      LG OLED55B8PLA problem
      by funyy
      Hey there,
      So I got a problem with my LG OLED TV (OLED55B8PLA).

      the problem is that the tv won‘t power on some times, the led stays red and won‘t even blink, just solid red when I try to turn it on. USB devices connected won‘t light up. 1/4 of the screen (left side) shows some green „clouds“ that are getting brighter everytime I turn the tv on and after some tries the tv finally turns on. Sometimes it takes 10 tries and some times 100 or even more tries.

      When the tv is on, everything works fine, hdmi outputs, usb inputs, wifi, bluetooth, etc is working...

      A1708 - Problem With Display - Driving Me Insane
      by Ado02
      I am working on an A1708 MacBook Pro 13 / Mid 2017 with a keyboard problem. I replaced the palmrest and installed a new battery, which is when the fan started.

      When powering on the MacBook, the fan would spin for a few seconds and go off, and nothing would show off on the screen. However, when I disconnected the battery, the laptop would work.

      So, I ordered a new battery, but the problem was the same. I spent hours figuring out the problem, but the logic board eventually stopped working.

      The next step was to order a replacement logic board - but...
