Good morning I bought an Asus C204ma Chromebook a day ago. yesterday everything was working fine. today when I click on a page after turning on the computer the page opens but when I click on something it doesn't work. I tried turning it back on, doing a hard reset. I don't know what to do, I hope the problem doesn't come from the device.
So, whenever i play on my chromebook with my controller, It has input delay. It takes 1.5 to 2 seconds to read the input. I've tried resetting the chromebook and the controller, i tried reconnecting it and after about 20 seconds, it has delay again. I need help, i wanna play with my controller :<
Is it possible to run fallout 3 and new Vegas on my Samsung galaxy chromebook 4 11.6 with about 4gb of ram? I plan on using this as an affordable gaming laptop. I don’t play much other than those two games and I would figure that those games shouldn’t do to much for that old Chromebook. Any ideas and tips. Also anyone know where to get those 2 games free 👀
I play GFN with Chromebook.
Problem is you cannot add games to the library since there is no app for chromebook or android(mobile phone).
How I made it wok was to open another previously owned ubisoft game and go to the ubisoft connect app once inside that particular game.
Then I was able to access my accoubt by using the in app web reader and log in with my details.
Last= go to library and then filter by Ubisoft + gqmes and then add games.
Voila.
took my 2 hours. glhf
So hey guys, I'm just seriously out of option now so I'm now asking you guys if you can help me. I've had my HP Chromebook for a good 3 years now, connecting my Bluetooth headphones/speaker, etc. has not been a problem. But recently, whenever I connect my Bluetooth devices, it sounds muffled or low sound and sometimes no sound, and even if I change up the volume, the quality of the sound from the headphones/speaker does not change. There's times when it works and sounds fine but it suddenly cuts off and comes back with a muffled/low volume sound. Now, I have my chromeOS in the latest version, I've factory reset it, and I have tried a lot of troubleshooting that I could think of, but it's still like that. I'd like y'all who maybe faced these kinds of trouble and was able to fix it to help me. Thanks!
PS: the audio is fine when i go into guest mode, but the audio problem eventually comes back when i switch back to my main profile

I bought my Chromebook 2 days ago and now I'm trying to install a few programs, but when I do try it shows the reddit icon and says "you need to authenticate first"
what do I do??
Hello everyone, I am currently trying to connect my switch to my Chromebook and use the Chromebook as a monitor but I can't seem to find a way to do it (using the official dock) I know it's possible but I can't seem to find anything online, if anyone has any idea on how to do this properly, anything would be helpful
Hello, I am trying to solve a minor problem I have encountered on my Acer Chromebook Plus 514.
For some reason, I assume after a software update, the backlit keyboard does not turn off automatically.
Usually, it would do that after the user hasn't typed anything for around ~20 seconds, and it would turn back on when pressing any key again.
It is not an extremely serious issue, but it is a bit odd. And I can't find any setting related to it.
I have a LOT of chromebooks (>15). All but one do not pair with a ps4 dual shock controller anymore. Only the ASUS CX55 continues to correctly fully pair (blue led light on controller, not just white).
I have tried forgetting and pairing again, resetting the controller, installing linux, using a wired usb, switching to beta developer mode. ALL to no avail.
Anyone have similar experience with ps4 controllers or does anyone know of a fix? or why the ASUS CX55 works , but not the CX3402 for example?

This is a list of text-based IF’s (Interactive Fiction) that I and another user from itch.io, xSai or Bladed-Barbwire on Discord, made on itch.io, and I thought I’d share this here with you guys in case anyone is interested. All the credit goes to xSai for coming up with the idea. Also, note that, neither I nor xSai own the rights to any of these IF's; we are just recommending them to people as we believe they deserve more recognition and people might actually end up enjoying them. The list was made on itch.io and so, unfortunately, will have to be accessed from there for anyone wanting to access them from here. The list also had to be split into separate parts as we ran out of characters to use. All the IF’s are completely text-based, a few using some visuals and/or images, but none of them are full Visual Novels. Almost all of the IF's are made in Twine, with a few being made in ChoiceScript, Ren'py, or some other engine. Most of the IF's are free-to-play, some are pay-to-play, and some are free until they're completed and/or a price is decided. Some of the IF's have extra DLC's or bonus side content on their itch.io page or on the author's patreon, which are either free-to-play or pay-to-play. Most of the IF's can be played in a browser (works best in the itch.io app, Chrome, Firefox and some other browsers. Not guaranteed to work in every browser) with some also having a download option, but there are some IF's that only have a download option and no browser one. Most of the IF's can be played on PC and mobile, but some are not compatible for mobile. A lot of the IF's are also unfinished WIP's (Work In Progress); some of them are already completed, close to completion, just started, or may have been discontinued. Some of the links of the IF's also don't work, stop working for a while before working again, or ask for a password to access; perhaps due to being discontinued, shut down for maintenance, or for some other reason. We will continue to keep updating the list as we find more IF’s. We also have a discord server, a subreddit, a tumblr blog, and a cohost page dedicated just for this. If you, or anyone else have any IF’s you want to recommend, feel free to share them on here, the three itch.io topics, the discord server, the subreddit, the tumblr blog, or the cohost page (They have to be text-based IF’s from itch.io and need to have at least some kind of interactivity. IF’s from other sites, Visual Novels, or some other type of game will not be accepted). Or if you just want to talk, or ask me for some suggestions on which IF's to try, then feel free to do that as well. Anyway, thank you for your time, and I hope you have a good day, folks. Cheers!

Hello. Got a Chromebook, looking to setup some retrogaming on it. Because it is a Chromebook, it doesn't have a huge amount of internal drive space to hold everything. Certainly not my other apps plus a good amount of retrograms.
So I need it on an SD card, which I got.
But Retroarch doesn't seem to be looking at my SD card for directories. The only options it has for any directories, including cores, save states, etc, are all to the internal drive.
Can anyone help me slap around Retroarch until it noticed the SD (if it even can) and/or suggest another front end to use? Or other options for this sort of thing you recommend? Thank you.
