How to remove a USB-C expansion card.
The default card, supporting USB4, 20V/5A charging, and DisplayPort Alt Mode for connecting monitors, all on either side of the notebook.
Does the USB-C together with AMD 7040 Framework Laptop support USB4 Data + 100W + DisplayPort Alt Mode all at once? I would like to connect the laptop to the external monitor, charge it from the monitor, use data devices connected to the monitor, all through the single cable between the monitor and the laptop.
How do I enable the fingerprint reader in Win 10?
If it stops working, how would I get into the computer.
I searched in the forums for “How to enable “and found no directions.
thanks
