Has the new driver resolved everyone's problems? I've installed 2024.0.8.127 and still seeing a significant number of the devices randomly losing connection, sometimes requiring a restart before connecting again. We have 70 of these V15-iil laptops and I'd say we're still having problems with about 15 of them. Anyone else or have I just got a bad batch Thanks

Could someone provide a link to the version that appears to be working? The last one I tried was from the HP website and I'm still getting reports of them losing connection Thanks

Any got a solution to this? Thanks

Anyone got a driver that works reliably for these, we bought 70 over the summer and the reliability of them isn't going down well. Current driver has the following details: model: Realtek 8822CE Wireless LAN 802.11ac PCI-E NIC Driver Version: 2024.0.8.122 Driver Date: 27/04/2020 Anyone found a better driver?

Anyone know if you can opt out of the free trial when installing the basic version of notebook 19.1? Wouldn't want users to create something they then can't use after the 45 day trial

Thanks for the replies, if someone has already been through a document and redacted the text by covering it with the "text highlighter" tool, so that it looks like it's been covered over, is there a way to "flatten" the document so this can't be undone. Also if the sensitive information is changed with text i.e. "redacted" or "xxxxxx". why would it then need to be exported as a pdf? thanks

Hi All, Is it possible to redact text in a word document so that it can be emailed, without the recipient being able to "undo" the changes. So, I have a document which has sensitive information redacted. So far we have taken a screen shot of the document and then sent that, just wondering if there is a better way for if there is a document with many pages? Thanks, Mike

Also watching "you" after a couple of friends recommending. I'm about 5 episodes in and it's great so far, very well made

Ozark on Netflix would be my recommendation. Two series with I believe a third on it's way, excellent watch

Are these no longer available? I'm at an Academy and although we follow county guidelines, I'm not sure we have access to such document Thanks, Mike

Sorry to bring up an old post, but could anyone provide a 2018 version of this? thanks, Mike

Has no one had anything in way of training regarding this? Just buy the tools and watch a video? Can anyone recommend suppliers for the screens as this will only be worth doing if I can get hold of decent screens cheap enough

Hi All, Just wondering whether anyone on here has tried repairing ipads themselves (specifically screens). Currently any broken screens here are sent away to a repair company, but as we buy in more and more ipads, there are more being sent away. I've thought about suggesting the school send me on training and then I can just do repairs to save money and turn over time, but would like to hear some opinions. TIA Mike

I'd be interested to know if anyone on here has managed to sell / scrap their old kit for money. Our school just get a registered waste collection service to come and pick the lot up for free when we have too much to store but I'm sure they'd use someone else if there's money to be made. Seen a few youtube videos of people taking motherboards in bulk to the scrap and making a fair amount of money but they seem to be either USA or AUS based so not sure of that type of thing is available in the uk. Also as far as servers are concerned is there some requirement of schools having to keep them for a period of time or as long as the information is backed up and then wiped can they be sold too?

we have somewhere around 100 so listing and posting them individually through ebay could be a chore, but better than just binning as seems a waste. I was thinking of possibly doing a job lot but then posting could be an issue. could resellers / repairers / refurbishers be interested in them? or Am I unlikely to get rid of them in one go
