    Quick credit card question...

    Thanks for the answers guys. Going to try and call them now in the hope that it's not going to take me best part of a day to get through to some outer Nigerian call centre. :)

    Quick credit card question...

    Really? But does a pending transaction have the same effect on the account as one that is actually completed? As in, will I be able to get away with this, or does my first question still stand?

    Quick credit card question...

    It is a Virgin credit card so MBNA? Reason this has come up is that I have to go on a last minute trip to Spain. I need to hire a car and I believe they request to swipe a credit card for the excess amount, and as i'm not in a position to decrease the balance at the moment I was wondering if...

    Quick credit card question...

    Fair play. Was just unsure you see, as I know certain banks seem to get off on being able to charge for going overdrawn etc. :) Thanks

    Quick credit card question...

    Hiya If you have a credit card with a limit of let's say £1000, with an outstanding balance of £900, would a transaction get declined if a charge was requested for £200? Or would they just let you go overdrawn and charge you a fee? Thanks :)

    Quad Core in a Shuttle

    Hiya, I'm building a new PC as the time for upgrade has come. I really need the space so i'm getting rid of my CM201 and i'm looking into a Shuttle XPCP352. CPU wise i'm looking at a core 2 quad Q8200. Will this not cause me any issues heat wise? Anyone had any problems running this, or...

    FTP problems

    Hiya I can log into my FTP no problems, however whatever I try to do I get permission denied. I can't rename files, upload or delete anything from my Tiscali business broadband account. I have tried multiple FTP programs. Does anybody know what may be causing this? Thanks Tom

    Computer suddenly not working

    Hiya I've got a relatively old system - it's an Asus A8N mobo with Athlon 3000, 1600xt etc. I run two screens off the graphics card - both off DVI. Today I come home to switch my PC on and neither of the screens are getting any signal. I've tried one screen, then the other, swapping...

    Another Watch Thread - help!

    I don't think it's out of the question, though bear in mind that the prices have recently increased. It was priced at £1875 when I purchased but has now increased to £2000 retail. Still, discount is available, i paid £1500 iirc then got a bit of discount on the rubber strap and deployment...

    Another Watch Thread - help!

    I have that watch only with the orange bezel. Cannot recommend it enough and the amount of comments i've had is unreal. Moreso than my Panerai which is worth considerably more. And yes the strap is made of rubber. The strap and deployment clasp to buy seperately are ~£250. Nothing really...

    Strange monitor/graphics problem

    Yeah, tried that and tried a new cable too, but still nothing. :( Slightly gutted as it's actually the newest monitor of the two that's given in...:p

    Strange monitor/graphics problem

    Hiya Got 2 monitors running off my X1600XT graphics card. All was fine yesterday, turned the PC on today and all of a sudden my other monitor is no longer picking up signal... I've tried updating drivers, swapping over cables, trying new cables, removed graphics card and refitted but still...

    Networking a network drive - asking for password when there isn't one...

    Hiya In our office we run mainly mac's with just a couple of PC's. Just got a new PC in and i'm trying to network up an external hard drive that is connected to one of the mac's. When you connect to the drive from another mac, there is no password set so you just login as Guest. When...

    *** Grand Theft Auto IV - In-Game Chat [Spoilers] ***

    Or an easier way to do it is, knife the manager in the room, walk across the club so the other guy chatting to the stripper comes up on the radar, head towards the back room where the other one is getting a dance. By the entrance to the booth, quickly pull out a gun and take down the guy...

    *** Grand Theft Auto IV - The Official Thread ***

    Absolutely loving this game. Only about 25% in at the moment as i'm just trying to take it all in and trying out all the little extra bits you can do. :D It's the details that impress me the most, pointless stuff that goes on in the background that adds to the atmosphere. Drove onto the...

    *** Grand Theft Auto IV - The Official Thread ***

    Finally got my hands on my preorder this morning. :D First impressions...wow, just WOW. The sheer scale of the city and the intensity of detail that creates LC is just stunning. Graphics aren't mega-impressive but when you take into consideration the scale of it all it doesn't fail to...

    I have to say, I don't think i'll bother pre-ordering a game again. I think the way that companies have handled the release of this game is down right unfair. If the release date was broken, it's broken in my opinion. It shouldn't be one set of rules for some and other rules for the rest. Very...
