Will try that thanks.

I've got a desktop with a 120GB SSD and a laptop with 240GB both containing windows 10 installs. I want to swap them as my desktop could do with more space, but I would rather not have to format them, or have to do a fresh windows install either if I can help it. What's the best way to do this...

I've recently got a HDTV with VGA and decided to connect my laptop to it and use it as a 2nd monitor and use it for watching videos on it. Now i've got it displaying the desktop picture i have and move various windows to it but when i play videos or maximize explorer windows i notice that it...

Well i got the PSU and to my surprise it comes with a 4-pin cpu - 8-pin adapter so no need to buy an adapter.

I read a few reviews of the 600w version and it look good so thought the 500w would be the same minus 100w and a few connectors like Sata. Pci-e, molex but that it would keep the 4+4. Only 2 expansion slots will be used, 1 for graphics card and the other for a wifi card and as said earlier the...

well i guess i'll just keep it as i don't have time to send it back and wait for another one to come.

So i bought an OCZ Stealth Extreme 2 500W power supply from OCUK yesterday but only noticed today that it has a 4-pin motherboard connector where as the 600w model as well as the motherboard it will used with has an 8-pin. I sent an web-note to OCUK hopefully in time to get it changed to a...

Thanks for the advice, will stick with the 32bit xp for the moment and some point in the future go Windows 7.

I have a laptop with XP pro 32bit on it and it is activated via key on the COA sticker at the bottom of the laptop. I added 2gb of ram but will be adding another 2gb and want to upgrade to 64bit so i can get use out of all 4gb of ram. So my question is where i to get 64bit xp pro would the...

Do this but then hit name in the Group By option and it'll group by letter although it groups by A-H (group 1), I-P (group 2).....etc for me and i am not sure if it will group individually by letter if you have a ton of files and folders.

Missing cursor in several games with aero on So i thought i'd borrow maximum crysis from a friend and install it on my windows 7 64bit PC and try to play through it. Now whenever i load it up i can move through menu's with cursor keys but at no point do i see any mouse cursor although i can...

I always use a small adjustable spanner to put the stand-offs in the holes on the case then screw the motherboard to them. I did notice on my current build that the PC was powering on for a few secs then switching off and i found out that i had left out a stand-off which was then causing the...

Cheers for the sugestions so far. I might pick up arkham asylum, Mass Effect 1/2, Tron 2.0 or DarkSiders.

So i am currently playing Just Cause 2 but to be honest i am not likely to play through many of the missions to complete the story and game that soon as it is more fun just messing around. Anyway because of this i looking for a game that is worth me picking up to complete whether it be...

Tried HWMonitor and speedfan so far with both reporting the same temps when idle as well as the same increasing temps when the CPU is placed under full load. I prefer HWMonitor better out of the two as it does give me a Min and Max reading which i can refer to after any test/CPU intense program...

Cheers for the suggestions will take a look at them.

So i bought a ECO A.L.C. and tested it out with my Phenom II x2 at stock speeds and setting by monitoring temps at 100% load but i use my CPU core unlocked to an x4. Having the CPU unlocked means my normal temp monitoring program Core Temp along with others fail to get any readings. So is...

Have now tried it in 3 systems without getting any display from it and i know those 3 systems are fully working with their main graphics cards so this 4890 is a dead card. Thanks for the help but looks like i will need to go back to my 3870 till i can get something new.

My mate gave it to me saying he had it stored away after he had upgraded. It doesn't look it it had any noticeable faults but i guess it is dead which is a shame although not too bothered as i didn't spend any money on it.

Tried all of the above Frenzy but still no luck in getting anything to display.
