Win10 is it your mouse or did computer crash?
-
I am on the back porch working remotely (running win10 laptop AMD R7 - 16GB RAM etc.) Suddenly my mouse stopped working. Cursor disappeared. I figured it was the battery. Changed battery and mouse still not working. Unplugged & tried the built-in mouse-pad. Nothing. The mouse didn't stop working...the machine is completely frozen. I hold power button & when it comes back I check event log and see the following: https://i.stack.imgur.com/Y75Gs.png[^] GetCaCaps??? Hmm... I search (duckduckgo) and find this article: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/answers/idea/607697/amd-ryzen-tpm-scep-certificate.html[^] I try to load the article and get an error from searching for an error: https://i.stack.imgur.com/ZKjMS.png[^] Microsoft's site is down for maintenance???!!! Holy crap. It's errors all the way down! :|
Outtasight, man[^] These always come in handy when you're suddenly trying to hold things together. Especially in a crowd. You'll HAVE to install SQL Server Management Studio 2014 Express to keep track of which color organizer you used on which bend of discordia (sp?) but eventually ... yattayattayatta.

Yes I agree & you’re right 100%. It is odd that Microsoft attempts to contact a server on behalf of your computer (in the background, while you’re using the computer) then can’t handle the exception when their site doesn’t respond. It is quite odd that a “professional operating system” which runs on multi core & is multithreaded would lock up the entire system because it couldn’t retrieve a payload (certificate). Just reporting the error & trying again later wouldve been the Linux (non intrusive) way to handle it.

Or if you prefer "old school" (like "arguing" ... as seen in the movie "Paper Chase" circa Yes Albumn "Tales from The Topographic Ocean" etc ... Dear Sirs,[^] While the plans for this trellis were not available ... uzw (asf)◾

What? I don't understand what you mean. Please provide more details on your win10 setup, if possible. I'm guessing you've seen this problem too & have been able to fix it? Thanks

I'm just saying. Dust will be the downfall of the corrugated cardboard industry. If you need an explanation then ... Google "Dust will be the downfall of the corrugated cardboard industry". :)

dirty keyboard? Maybe a tiny bug actually fell between the keys.

That was exactly the answer. I looked more closely at the keyboard and saw the bug[^]. I documented in dev notebook in case it happens to others. Thanks for your help. :thumbsup:
