What is the best WYSIWYG HTML editor?

[Jaxon Carter]

I use camtasia because it just works, and I can screen record BUT apparently on a mac it doesn't record audio. Why is this?

Why can't I find a screen recording software for mac that allows me to record in system sound?

How do I find out which wireless card works for my laptop?

I bought a laptop in 2012, but without a wireless adapter. Now I want to buy a wireless card (rather than an USB dongle), but I have no clue how I find a compatible one that both works and fits in.
The manufacturer lists a few, but it has been 5 years now, surely there's something better by now, right?

My chipset seems to be:
intel(r) 7 series/c216

So my Pc wouldn't post, it ended up working again after I took the ram out and put it back in the same slots. Any idea what could have caused it to not work, or is this just shit that happens sometimes?

[Kayden Peterson]

Oh, wow, technology has come so far. I didn't think you could download GPU's yet, only RAM

[Brody Turner]

>living in a country with connection speeds so 3rd world you can't download a new gpu

Which laptop?

First, find out if your laptop has a BIOS whitelist, and if it does, can it be removed. If it does then you can only use the range of cards that the manufacturer used, sometimes even needing the particular variant with their part number.

If no or removable whitelist, you can use anything that fits the same slot, which for you is most likely half mini PCIe, an Intel 7260 is gpod, dual band WiFi 802.11ac, has bluetooth too, reasonably cheap.
