Re: Flickering screen after CC

Mobile Partner is my Huawei modem internet, yes. I have experienced some wierd things: Websites loading very slow, the connection going out, and just now I went on both chrome and firefox, and the same pages continued to give errors when I tried to get into them. What do you suggest I do, reinstall it, or should I just contact the company right away? Thank you for this because it answered my questions about what I have experienced.

    @drkatrine  I'm not surprised you've been having internet trouble, given the errors.  This is not my area of expertise by any means, but the person I asked said that it should hopefully be enough to uninstall and reinstall the driver.  Here's how:

    • Download the latest version from here:  https://huawei-mobile-partner.en.lo4d.com/windows
    • Take your computer  offline, as in, turn off wifi and/or disconnect the ethernet cable
    • Click on the Windows icon in the lower left corner of your screen, and select Settings > Apps
    • Scroll to where Huawei Mobile Partner (or just Mobile Partner) is listed, and uninstall
    • Reboot your laptop, still with no internet connection
    • Install the new version you downloaded

    If you still see evidence of internet-related issues, like a lost connection or slow loading, let me know.  And of course the same goes for any issues with Sims 3.

    Thank you so much for this!!

    I remembered I have a backup modem from Huawei, so I uninstalled the old Mobile Partner and moved it all to the new Huawei modem. I couldn't install it though. It opens up in a HiLink thing in internet explorer, it's basically the same thing where you can connect your internet and check your messages, just over a browser I guess? So I have had the internet on for a couple of hours now, and I haven't experienced the problems I had before. So far so good. In the bottom right of the screen where we can view our WiFi it says "network: connected" and there's a picture of a computer screen with a cable on the side. I guess it works? It's different from what it did before with the old modem, but so far so good. I will let you know if anything happens, and thank you again SO much for doing this.

    I wrote on another site about problems I experienced with a wierd mechanical stuttering sound coming from the laptop. It came whenever I went into an internet browser, though was a lot worse when going on Google Chrome. People told me it was because Google Chrome is a CPU drainer. However, after putting in the new modem and using that his way instead, the sound is no longer there. I'm thinking the old one was the cause of it considering the errors in dxdiag as well. Now I just hope all the good-ness lasts, lol. Thank you again.

    My internet is incredibly slow sometimes though which is annoying. Will try more stuff tomorrow to see if I can fix it.

    So I fixed it, however I have run into another problem(* all these problems, exuse my language), and I'm so sorry for bothering you all the time.

    The problem is that it dosen't matter what internet I'm on, if it's my own or WiFi from another place, the internet is EXTREMELY slow most of the time. I don't get it. Do you have an idea why this could be happening?

    @drkatrine  You're not bothering me at all.  But I really don't know how to troubleshoot slow internet, other than to take the laptop to various places to see whether it's ever fast (which you've already done).  Try a different browser, just to make sure it's not really that simple.  If that didn't make a difference, I'd run a virus scan just to cover my bases; Malwarebytes is good and has a free version.
