Hi, my computer is having a strange DNS problem and nothing seems to be fixing it. Earlier today it was working fine, until I needed to go on a US only site (I'm from Canada). I was queueing up in Cyber Ghost, but completely forgot about it. I downloaded the Betternet extension for Google Chrome. So now I essentially had 2 VPNs running.
I turned off and uninstalled both VPNs after that.
After that, my pc has dns problems every couple minutes. If I unplug my wifi adapter, or manually change my DNS to something else, it works again for a couple minutes.
When I troubleshoot, it just says that Windows can't communicate with the device or resource (primary dns server).
I've also tried all the ipconfig commands, scanning for malware or viruses, and temorarily removed my motherboard battery to no avail.
My PC is the only thing affected by this.
Is used nslookup in cmd and apparently my default server is
If it helps, my specs are:
Skylake i7 6700k
Asus Viii hero mobo
GTX 1080 Strix
32gb of ram
Think my power supply is 750w bronze
Not sure if my specs help.
