    HELP! Windows 10 won't boot after clean install

    If I read your post right you have more than one hard drive attached to this system, i always found that it was best to remove all other drive(s) before doing a clean install. As it sometimes gets confused and install bootsector on other drives and then when you try and bootup it goes to another...

    Am I being daft? (pulling out of house move due to broadband speed)

    Hmm going down in speeds can really suck. When I moved over to the UK after I finished my Uni degree in Sweden where we had 100mbit in the student accommodation going back to 56k dialup was so bad I stopped going online for a few years lol. But yeah if its still a reasonably good fast...

    back-up android phone to pc?

    Can you install an alternative recovery? I always use TWRP which allows you to take a FULL backup of everything on the phone and you can copy that file to a pc to then allow you to restore it when you get the phone back. These days the google backup is quite good as well brings back most of...

    Best Router for IPVanish VPN

    Most Asus routers will be able to work for you especially if they have the Merlin WRT software. How ever the biggest problem is that it will take a HUGE hit on the speed. I tested this a while back on the Asus RT-n66u router and yes it worked but the poor CPU in the router didn't have enough...

    HTC One M9 Firmware

    You don't flash a firmware to get rid of network junk and splash screens, what you want is a custom ROM which there usually are tons. I'm currently using one called LeeDroid for my HTC 10 and I know he does a ROM for the HTC M9 as well http://www.leedroid.co.uk/. A good place to go for...

    Career change - Engineering to IT!

    Downloads not working RT-N66U

    Stock fw is pretty good but there are some additional features in the Merlin that makes its just a bit better, he usually base his on the latest fw any way so you still have asus latest plus his additional tweaks features. As for the OP's download problem I don't think this will be cause by...

    PS3 as a media streamer?

    I used to use PS3 media player, the development on that has slowed down quite a lot though and found http://www.universalmediaserver.com/ which is developed by one of the main guys involved with PS3 media player. It's imho slightly better than PS3 media player and well worth to check out. I...

    Home network - wired/wireless

    If you rewiring the house why not add networking? It's always going to be faster more reliable than wireless also more secure as you not beaming data for people listen into. If no huge difference go with Cat6. If it was my I would defo get hard wired sockets all through my house.

    **Tesco value tablet - The Hudl**

    Surely it will be possible to load something like CM or something pretty soon on these devices, so that will take care of both getting updates to latest Android OS and get rid of any kind of Tesco bloat.

    Windows 8 refuses to let me copy files from Windows 7 hard drive

    In both Vista and Seven ( can't remember xp or 2k as im getting to old) it would say when you try and access files you don't own if you want to set permission to do so, so a bit surprised if they have removed this in 8 but then again its possible.

    Virgin Media Discussion Thread

    It sounds like it is set to use two 20Mhz channels to use 40Mhz of the spectrum, which is should help get more wireless speed but doesn't work that well if the 2.4Ghz band is crowded with lots of peoples routers nearby fighting for the limited channels available.

    New 3tb drive, problems

    It could be that the drive is faulty if it keeps disappearing how ever to use the full 3TB you need to enable GPT and you can then format it to use the full 3 TB (I did that on a recently purchased 3tb drive and it works fine)

    Windows display settings should allow you to change from extend to clone.
