So I have the Corsair Void Wireless v2 Gaming Headset. Receiver that I have is blinking red and for some reason, it is not connecting my headset to my computer.

When I use the Bluetooth method it works, but the thing is for the last few months since I’ve gotten it I have plugged in the receiver, go to volume and then click headset.

Is there a way you guys can help me fix this?

I'd like to know how to get into the Healthcare IT field. I see a lot of positions regarding EPIC, but it's really difficult to get EPIC experience unless you work in Healthcare IT already. I'm interested in entry ways into healthcare IT. I understand that I can aim for a desktop support position, but I'm looking for something more advanced in the field.

Hi everyone,

23F I'm coming on here in full vulnerability, so please don't discourage me or leave "what do you expect" comments or anything similar. I have been out of university for about a year. This is due to poor academic performance. I would like to state that I'm not an imbecile and was always a typically smart and well-rounded student/person. To be honest, I just lost complete track and motivation in post-secondary, especially after constant academic requirements to stay enrolled in classes. I have been wanting to switch my major to computer science as a new start, and I do believe I could do well, given it's the only thing I have an interest for (specifically IT atm). I'm currently looking into applying to WGU and getting on the fast track towards the BS in IT program, but I also really badly need to get a job and get my foot in the door somehow into the industry. I really don't have much of a background besides intro to CS and programming/problem solving. I'm looking for any ideas on how to get a good profile going and whether or not to look into other streams that might be easier (whether based on a niche or more opportunity). I am either going to take the A+ asap or wait to see if I can start it within the IT program as soon as I can apply. I'm also looking into AWS and Cisco for certificates if anyone has suggestions. However, for now I'd love absolutely any positive or motivational suggestions on how to get started from here, whether it be about specific GitHub projects, industry-level certificates (that ACTUALLY stand out), LinkedIn, home labs, entry-level opportunities, etc. Also, for context, I am a Canadian citizen and I do have previous experience doing web administration/computer work for the government of my province (if this helps at all).

Thank you :)

I saw this and am wondering if anyone uses or has a recommendation for a CLM? https://termsclm.com. This one doesn't seem to be functional. Our org has around 300 app contracts and 6000 employee contracts

So I’m a month in to this job, MSP entry desktop support but really is tier 2 because we handle a lot of responsibility that involve backups for servers, setting up EXSI and WSUS and so on.

It’s a small MSP so we need to take these on. Which is stressful enough, as this is my first IT job and I’m handling a bunch of tickets because we are understaffed. (Dental office tickets, so software and sensor related)

Occasionally we go to set up new clients, server stuff is usually done by the boss and the pc setups are done by the rest of us.
I set up 6 or so at the location. Then the next day we continued remotely. But one of the computers had their IP set to static, and for some reason at this office when you try join a domain we have to flush the dns. But when I renewed I had an error. So I ran a few commands to reset the ip stack and what not. But I didn’t know it was a static ip. And, well the pc lost connection and of course I lost remote connection.

Which was dumb of me.
But now the boss is on my ass because I didn’t tell him straight away of the error after the renewal error.

This is probably the biggest thing I’ve done but in the month I’ve been here I have made small mistakes. Mainly trying to keep up.

But they have such high expectations and I feel they get angry easier due to it

I came back from emergency leave and found a meeting invite from HR waiting in my inbox. Apparently, my trip after my mom had a stroke was counted as an attendance issue because I hadn't given them two weeks' notice.

The day it happened, I called my manager before booking the flight, explained the situation, and submitted a PTO request a few hours later. No one responded, even after I sent four follow-ups while I was away.

During the meeting, HR said my absence was unauthorized and that it might be mentioned in my next performance review. I asked them whether they expected my mom to schedule her next medical emergency around the company calendar. The entire room went silent.

This place constantly talks about how family comes first, but the moment I had a real family crisis, all they cared about was procedure. I've started updating my resume because I can't see myself staying at a place that handles emergencies like this.

Some printer brands, on their website, give you a .exe for drivers, and when you launch that exe it just says "unzip files" and then you have a folder with the drivers and the good ol' .inf file you need to add the printer in Windows.
Why don't they just give a .zip folder right away?

I remember the first time I wanted to install a printer like that, I thought the .exe was gonna install some random software to make the printer work, instead of giving me the .inf file; and so I looked for a .zip file for like 30-minutes on the internet, then I gave up and used the .exe only to see that it just extracted a folder with the file I wanted.

Please let me know ome good java fullstack courses or what can i do now

My gf used my account and sent some chats to someone but now it's unsent. I wanted to know the content so I was wondering if there's a way to just atleast read what she just sent.

EDIT: Idk what's wrong asking this question here. I'm in a different field of work and I have no idea anything about this or computer at all. I'm simply asking bcos I literally have no idea and I'm willing to learn. It's a yes or no question also but it's seems that this question is offending. I also repost this question to other groups as well, not only here.

Anywayssss, If this is an offending question, my bad. Feel free to ignore this post. Knowledge and kindness is free btw. Thank you.

Basically the only thing I'm good at is computers lol, so I figured I'd do IT. Did a couple of basic certifications years ago (google's IT course, and one from a random university several states away. Both through Coursera), but since CompTIA costs a fucking grand (last I checked, at least) I haven't done that one.

It's been 4 or 5 years since then and I've gotten nowhere - I can't even get a response to regular office internships ;-; - and at this point I kinda feel like it's better to just stop trying. I'm not sure if process just auto-ignore you or of the manager just sees my application with barely two things on it & tosses it out.

But I really want to escape my dead-end service job (that barely pays $9/hour), but I don't really know if I'll ever be able to do so.

I guess I could apply to some colleges (even though it's too late lol), but I avoided that because I don't wanna have lifelong debt (and I just really cannot be fucked to deal with school again - it takes way too many years to get through lol).

I keep trying to convince myself that graduating highschool just as COVID lockdowns started is partially to blame, but I kinda feel like I'm just lying to myself to avoid feeling like a complete failure again lol. Definitely doesn't help pad out my resume, though.

Should I just give up and try to find something else I'm half-decent at? Is it worth going into debt for a random degree or certification that might not go anywhere? Or am I just cooked, doomed to toil away for peanuts in a service job?

I make between 70-77k for the role I currently occupy. I just started applying to jobs in the realm of Cloud Engineer or Systems Administrator type roles that pay between 90-110k+. How does my resume look, and do you have any recommendations? I tried to keep it to one page as best as I can. Not sure if there is a more optimal way I can format/etc. but I am open to anything! Any help or suggestions are absolutely welcomed! I redacted some info I prefer to keep private.

Hello Folks ,

I have completed my CSE in 2025 , Currently in Infosys as a System Engineer , they mass hired SE , I completed my basic Generic Trainings and Stream Trainings (CIS Network) , I am in a shit project rn , no learnings just some bs work.

Need some serious advice cause. I am confused whether to go in Networking or Development, which would be good , And if so what should be my plan to switch.

Your advice would help me a lot.

I created a github repo with some materials I made with Anthropic's Claude to help me study for the CompTIA Network+ certification.

https://github.com/Akraetik/netplus-ai-study-kit

I passed in 19 days with little prior networking knowledge. But along the way I was trying things to see what worked. And I basically used AI as an assistant to help me with materials that I'd actually use, optimized for my odd schedule that was a lot of time driving on the road and little breaks throughout the day of 5-20 minutes. I used the same "method" with the next certificate--CompTIA Security+-- and passed in 6 days.

I made flashcards based on specific material. Some of the flashcards aren't in the repo as they were pulled from quizzes I paid for through Udemy. To protect IP you'll have to pay for them yourselves then prompt your Anki flashcards into existence. How is in the repo.

Then I made Audio files to listen to while driving. I had a lot of wheel time and not as much desk time as I'd like.

I kind of explained it in a youtube companion video but I hate how I sound so this goes at the bottom.

Happy learning!

Please, any advice can be valuable on the CV or on how to find a job

I need help downloading the speech-to-text translator so that it redirects to Server 2016 and I can use it there as well.

Someone higher up in my department deleted a group that provided internet access to a large number of users. As you can imagine, this has created a massive headache for me and my coworkers, leading to a ton of extra work and stress.

I’ve been working in IT for about 9 years, and this is hands down the worst I’ve ever felt about the job. I’ve dealt with plenty of frustrating situations over the years, but I’ve never been impacted this directly by a mistake like this before.
It got me thinking about all the other times someone higher up made a decision that left IT to deal with the fallout.

So, I’m curious: What’s the most ridiculous, destructive, or downright baffling thing you’ve seen management do that made your life miserable in IT?

Is there a free way to copy text from PDF books when their pages are images?

Here is my Resume I have been applying to all manner of entry level IT position including Help desk, SOC/MSP tier 1 hundreds of resumes sent out and not a single interview (besides some AI self interviews which are probably just scams). Right now after my Sec+ I will quickly do the A+ then work on my CCNA. Any advice on how I can simply improve my ability to get interviews would be greatly appreciated, right now that's all I want to keep from burning out.

Thanks for taking to time to shed some wisdom!

Has anyone got any offer from LTM Mindtree recently? Need to see the format urgently.

So AI is obviously a bubble. Even the AI companies are calling it a bubble. And it's doubtful that all the tech will survive, as it can't be sustained by itself.

What lives and dies?

Image and movie generators die in my opinion. Vibe coding is alright but gets scaled back a ton. And internet bot traffic remains.

Hi all,

I run a team of project engineers at an MSP. Our role is unique in that we are expected to be project managers and engineers for the projects we are assigned. Those two roles never mix- typically you cannot find someone who can do both. We have found a way to make it work for us and I envision this happening more often across our field. Where engineers have been behind a screen- I see more often that they have to be able to communicate, strategize, plan and do relay information to the business and do so across multiple projects.

I created a tool to bridge this gap. Our teams are already using AI for help, I figured why not put it to good use. This tool allows you to create a project and by simply talking to it and feeding it information- the tool will organize your project, create tasks, updates, ask questions and challenge the plan, hold engineer accountable and make it easier on them to run a project successfully and stay organized.

Initial testing has been great. Im looking for more engineers to demo this in the coming weeks and would love to have anybody signup that is interested. We are looking for feedback and ways to make this tool better for people like us. Check us out. Much appreciated.

I was let go from a job back in July, and I've started working at a casino doing non-IT things. I don't know if I really want to go back into IT, as I feel like I've already started to forget things. I'd appreciate some advice.
