That is a great price! Did they have any stands? Those alone can fetch a reasonable price. I have the sub sat here, used only a few times, but the pin from the plug which went into Output Jack snapped off and is stuck in the hole. PM me if you're interested.

Ah ok, I've found the mail now. I take on board all of the above and won't stress about getting it onto the latest version, just as long as all my data has been cleared, so I will try a fresh install using my Snow Leopard disc a go. If it doesn't work for any reason, I would like to take you...

Hi @Feek, many thanks, but I can't see a PM, should it show in Conversations? I have found a Snow Leopard 10.6.3 disc, so I could try that and see if it will then upgrade to Lion? The iMac is 20-inch, Mid 2007, with 2GB, which supposedly should go up to El-Capitan, however from having a read...

Hi, Yes, so the guide was to do cmd-R on restart, erase HD and then re-install. But I don't have the media to do the install. If I click Install it asks for my Apple ID but then states that the OSX is no longer available to download. Is there another way or a way to create the USB boot...

Hi, I have an old 20" iMac running Lion 10.7.5. Rather than just throw away I thought I'd put it on eBay for £10 and see if it goes. However I want to clear it down first. The guides to clear down a Mac seem to be to erase the HD and then re-install OSX. However it seems the only way to do...

Thanks for the replies and apologies for the not coming back sooner. I've disabled the Wifi on the Q box using the engineers menu and it seems to have worked! Cheers Mark

Hi, Hopefully someone can help advise on my home network and our Sky Q setup. We have been running Sky Q on Wifi but the connection to the Mini box in the Living Room is just not stable enough. I therefore hard wired it into the network, but now the network seems unstable. Essentially...

Hi, I need to replace the antenna wire that comes out of my HPI receiver as it has lost all length. I used to be into RC 25 years ago and pretty sure its just a case of opening the case up and soldering the new wire onto the board? However I am unsure on where to get said cable? Searching on...

Hi all, We have a 5 year old HPI E-Firestorm 1/10 RTR. Its completely standard with stock brushed motor, 8.4V Ni-cd. I would like to convert it to a brushless motor and LIPOs (2S?), but really not sure what I need... ESC The current ESC is a HPI SC-15WP which states that it has 2S...

No, not that I have seen.

We have a Tenda MW3 Mesh network and for the money I think it is great. It allows me to view real time usage via the app, as well as create parental control groups, so I can control the kids internet usage across all of their devices from my phone. We have a reasonably large extended 1930's...

Hi all, Thanks for your thoughts. I'll try as best as possible to remove the front panel and run some temp comparisons to see if it is suffocating the fans as it were. Splosh, what cooler did you for and what temps were you seeing before and after? Thanks

Hi, A relative has passed away leaving a house with lots of contents which we now have to deal with. So all the usual furniture types; bedroom furniture, dining sets, sofas, kitchen utensils etc etc. Most of it is in good condition and also of good quality. We have no need for 95% of it as...

I've recently built my son a gaming PC using the Kolink Stronghold Midi case. The spec is: Kolink Stronghold Midi PowerColor Radeon RX 590 AMD Ryzen 5 3600 with stock cooler. Seasonic Core Gold GM-650 650W Initially we had it setup with the two 120mm fans which come with the case, but my son...

I need to source two sets of speakers for mine and my sons new gaming PC. I've got a set of 5 x Kef KHT2005.2 Egg speakers from our old surround sound setup and was thinking of utilising 2 pairs of these for the task. I assume I would need some sort of amp to power them, does anyone have a...

I didn't realise this... My last place of work, which was where I was at for many years ran a salary sacrifice scheme, however I didn't deduct my pension contributions from my declared salary when doing the Self Assessment. I did try to query it with HMRC years ago, but the chap either didn't...

Thanks for the inputs. I think first option will be to try and run an Ethernet cable to up through the ceiling into the bedroom upstairs. Failing that, the Tenda MW5 does look very tempting, especially at its current price. I like the fact I can run an Ethernet from one of the bubs to the PC...

The high income child benefit charge does rile me. I would be totally happy to forfeit the child benefit for our 3 children, but not when its based on an unfair and inconsistent rule. The fact is my neighbours could earn a joint income of £99,999 and receive 100% of it, yet if I earn £60k we...

Hi, I currently have three AV200 TP-Link Powerline adapters. One by my router, one in a study and one in a bedroom. In the study I see around 35Mbps, which is just a little shy of our max internet speed. However in the bedroom upstairs I only get a slow 4Mbps. I have downloaded the TP-Link...

Came across this post for a very similar build / request and have subsequently made the following changes: Swapped the SATA SSD for a 1TB PCIe SSD. Changed the memory to Patriot Viper Steel 3200MHz My basket at Overclockers UK: 1 x MSI B450 TOMAHAWK MAX (Socket AM4) DDR4 ATX Motherboard=...
