    Automatic highlighting in Microsoft Word (2019)

    Hello! I'm writing a paper at the moment and often leave citation placeholders "(cite)" in my document. I just wanted to know, is there a way to configure Word so that every time I write "(cite)" it highlights that text for me? I can do this manually every time but it's very tedious. Any help...

    Solved Strange buzzing from C27F390 monitor when viewing bright/vibrant images

    Hello, Thanks for your reply. I've tried 3 different HDMI cables but the strange issue persisted. In the end I exchanged the monitor for a different brand - still baffled by it, but if someone could close this thread that would be great. Many thanks!

    Solved Strange buzzing from C27F390 monitor when viewing bright/vibrant images

    Hello, I've just bought a C27F390 27" and I really like it. However, the only problem is that when certain colourful or very dark/very bright pictures are on screen, the monitor makes a strange 'buzzing' noise. It's very, very quiet (I suspect a lot of people would struggle to hear it), but...

    Temperamental mouse pad (ASUS ZenBook UX530UQ)

    Hello, I bought a new ASUS ZenBook UX530UQ recently and, in general, I'm really happy with it. There is just one problem, every so often, the mouse pad becomes unresponsive and I've no idea why! It doesn't seem to matter what I'm doing on it. It doesn't happen all the time, but just enough to...

    Plugged in, Charging (not actually charging...)

    Sorry for the slow reply, guys! No, the battery isn't removable unless I actually unscrew it from the motherboard... should I try that? Yeah, drops after a few minutes of use. Ah, man, I was kind of hoping for a less expensive-sounding problem :P I've had a look down the charging port and the...

    Yeah, his came with his ASUS laptop. His laptop is more recent than mine, but both the chargers look identical.

    Plugged in, Charging (not actually charging...)

    Yeah, both. Yeah I wanted to make sure I got an official one just to eliminate the possibility of it being a dodgy 3rd party one. Well bizarrely my housemate has the same charger, so I borrowed his and that made no difference... I wish it was that simple :/

    Just a standard UK mains. It was plugged in all day today. Official ASUS battery.

    Plugged in, Charging (not actually charging...)

    Okay so I've reinstalled that software (the OS drop-down wouldn't work for me so I just installed the most recent one - V3.0.8), but it doesn't seem to have changed anything. Further to this the software actually won't save the settings I try and apply. Bizarrely however, I took my laptop to...

    Plugged in, Charging (not actually charging...)

    Well it's the Windows one, I don't seem to have an ASUS battery icon. - Microsoft AC Adapter - Microsoft ACPI-Compliant Control Method Battery Nope :( Only something about "Power Off Energy Saving" which I disabled/re-enabled but didn't make a difference. The bios is: Aptio Setup Utility...

    Plugged in, Charging (not actually charging...)

    Hi! - Sorry, I've been away. I've investigated the power plans options, but none that would suggest they would ever allow for it to not charge :/

    Plugged in, Charging (not actually charging...)

    Hello again, Thanks for the link. I restarted my laptop in safe mode as you suggested, however the icon in the bottom-right which shows the level of battery charge is not active in this mode, so I was unable to see the battery level. However I've just restarted and the level is the same as it...

    I can't entirely remember. Thank you for the link. I downloaded the chipset driver which prompted a re-boot, but my battery issue remains.
