    Trading the stockmarket (NO Referrals)

    Thanks for the tip. I shall have a read. Newbie investor here. I started last year after the crash. It was easy buying cheap stock from big companies last year (Barclays, Prudential etc), but much more difficult now obviously.

    **Unofficial Tyre Thread**

    Last August, I put some Dunlop Sportmaxx RT2's on my Golf (225/45/17). They seemed ok at first (wasn't overly impressed though), but when the tread on them got down to about 3mm, the level of grip I got from them was absolutely shocking... There is a nice 3 mile stretch of NSL country road on...

    How broken is windows update for W7 users?

    Thanks, but If I wanted Win 10, I'd already be using Win 10. I'll look into that, cheers. I'll try the roll up patch first though, see if that helps at all :)

    How broken is windows update for W7 users?

    Windows Update is now completely broken for me. During the Win 10 promotion, I didn't get notifications to tell me if there were any updates available; I had to run Windows Update manually to check if there were updates. When there were updates, they downloaded and installed fine. After...

    Quake Champions

    I absolutely adored Quake 1 and Quakeworld. So much so that a friend and I would lug our PC's about every single week to go and join a LAN game at another friends house. I played Quakeworld online with dialup for years, before finally getting an ISDN connection. I've lost count at the...

    I don't use anything from that list. The only piece of Asus software I use is the ROG Ramdisk.

    Quick Insurance question

    Hi All, I have an old Peugeot 406 that was too uneconomical to put through another MOT, so I bought a new car (and insured it with a different company), and the Peugeot is going to be scrapped. I paid £244 for insurance for the Peugeot on 12th August last year, so the insurance runs until...

    Changes coming to Amazon Prime

    Microsoft updates support policy: New CPUs will require Windows 10

    Just a couple of days ago, I was offered an optional update in Windows 7 which turned out to be another Win 10 nag /downloader. That's 2 updates I've hidden now (KB3035583 & KB2952664). At the time, I did wonder how much lower MS would stoop in order to coerce people onto Win 10. Absolutely...

    VPN for 2016? Thinking of changing from PIA

    I've been using PIA for a couple of years now, and I've got no complaints with it. It's simple to use, and I've never experienced any throughput issues.

    What HDD shall I buy

    The drive suggested by Robbie_G looks very good for the money, and has a very respectable 3 year warranty. Personally though, I would stump up the extra and go for a WD Black. The warranty is 5 years. The warranty period doesn't guarantee against drive failure obviously. But if WD are...
