Hey Ghot. That's the procedure I've gone through several times with no success. But right after I posted this, I noticed a notification on that old system from Windows Update that had the Radeon...

In an old PC I built some time back, I swapped out an old Nvidia card for an equally old AMD Radeon HD 5570 to take advantage of it's HDMI input. But W10 consistently fails to install the AMD...

Thank you for confirming the GT 1030 card will work with my G41 MB, and for the gpu.userbenchmark info link bobkn.

I edited my original post to reflect that I'm only seeing the jittery / sluggish...

I wonder if anyone here who still dabbles with older systems might be able to offer advice on upgrading my graphics card. I built an HTPC in 2012 with a MSI G41M-P28 MB (see specs here) that has...

Oh! There was one thing in one of those URLs you linked that I did find potentially helpful to set dalchina:

Turn On or Off Windows Update Restart Notifications in Windows 10

As I 1st wrote at the top of my 1st post, this is on a W10 Pro system. And as I wrote, I've only just set that 'Notify before download' option in the Configure Automatic Updates policy. But the...

I've had this problem in the past on a system running W10 Home. But it's happened 3 times now in the past month on a W10 Pro system in the middle of running a weeks long task.

Checking the event...

I'm happy to report that I found an Amazon seller that listed a replacement battery for this notebook that meets all of the original specs of my OEM, including the Samsung cells. Out of the box it...

Well since it appears that Toshiba is no longer manufacturing and selling a battery for my L55T-C5290 notebook with parts made by them and / or companies they've contracted, it seems pretty...

I had to snap a few pix with the camera set to macro and blow them up big enough to read. The specs read:

Toshiba Rechargrable Li-ion Battery Pack
Model NO. PA5185U-1BRS
DC 14.8V/14.8V -...

The 1st looks convincing enough from that page, and from their Perris CA warehouse address NavyLCDR. But when you scroll down their contact info, it shows their office address as being in Shenzhen...

So I decided to go ahead and buy a genuine OEM battery for this Toshiba L55T-C5290 notebook. The free utility BatteryMon reports the manufacturer as Samsung SDI model PA5185U-1BRS. But I'll be darned...

That's been my experience with batteries that aren't OEM. Those cheapos can take longer to charge, don't hold a charge as long, and keep the device running for shorter and shorter amounts of time...

The battery in my Toshiba notebook has been fine. Holding a charge for 2 hours or more. The other night running off the AC adapter I noticed the battery level was at a flat 0%.

To see if the...

I have the option to edit posts, and can still edit old posts as long as I've logged in PoorUserName.




Well with my system running 24/7, today I found the notification icon was white...

What does running Winver tell you your version and build are John? I was updated to v1809 build 17763.194 two nights back and so far every aspect of notifications I was having problems with hasn't...

When you search Cortana for Winver what does it tell you your version and build are now John?

Win10 just updated to v1809 build 17763.194 tonight. Previous to this I might go a day without having to restart the service, or have to restart it a couple times a day. I don't see any reference to...

I've just been leaving the services.msc settings menu open, and when notifications don't appear I open 'Windows Push Notifications User Service_xxxxx' settings and start the service again. I see...

I found a post by margrave55 that narrowed down this issue to the service 'Windows Push Notifications User Service_xxxxx' Running the command 'net start WpnUserService_xxxxx' got Action Center...

I've been chasing this issue for months. Your narrowing it down to these services is the 1st solution that worked for me margrave55. Specifically it's the WpnUserService_xxxxx service that keeps...

Okay. That thread I pointed to on Action Center not working was specifically about problems after the 1809 upgrade. And my PC is still running 1803 as my notebook is. So I'll cross off hat as being...

Oh.. I saw this recent thread in these forums here about the Action Center having stopped working, and noticed the current W10 version is 1809. I checked mine, and it's 1803. So I ran a check for...

Thanks for checking that dalchina. Your 'Notifications & actions' settings menu looks different from mine. And the one on my Notebook looks different from the one on my PC, which might look more like...

It wasn't long after I thought this problem was resolved by resetting or reinstalling MS News that I found I would stop getting notifications by the end of the day. I've always left my notebook on...
