    Error: Sorry, but there is no account with this email address Please check the email is correct.

    w00t??!! Just tried logging into my account on the main site and I'm getting this error. I've been a customer for a good few years now and I can't access my account?? Any idea what's happening? Sorry if this is the wrong place, but I couldn't find anywhere else suitable to post this.

    Best way to transfer data from 2tb to 4tb?

    If you do go with robocopy make sure you DL it from technet. There's some dodgy (spyware) versions out there ;)

    Noob question - R9 290 power

    Not forgetting this is a quad-rail psu (20 Amp each). I'd recommend using 2 seperate cables. Try one by all means, but if you get power problems you have an idea what to try next ;)

    Flashed GPU BIOS and now second monitor not detected

    I flashed my HIS 7950 with the HIS bios from that thread, and I lost the HDMI too. Maybe it's normal? (whatever that is) Don't know about the miniDP tho, I put my old card back in for my second monitor. It may be an error in GPU-Z. Try the latest version. If 2048 cores is true then congrats ;)

    which motherboard

    Socket 775, DDR2. Is it gonna be worth upgrading it? Even if you can find a good replacement.

    Well......ive not seen this before

    windows will only ever make that partition if it needs to. As rpstewart points out, this will be when your boot drive is anything other than the drive windows is installed on. I'd be more surprised to see this reversed:)

    Biggest mistakes when building a PC

    Manuals/instructions. These should be the first things gathered from the boxes. Sit down with a cup of tea and study them, twice, making notes for yourself. Don't go straight to the goodies like I've done several times. Being prepared for those uh-oh!! moments saves a hell of a lot of time...

    SSD Noobie needs help! xD

    Also once you've enabled the AHCI mode in the bios do a reboot back to the bios and check the disc boot order ;)

    Help a newb...

    ^^This Mainly because the pipes on the corsair coolers are crimped onto really skinny unions. The case because you can never have too much space when you talk cooling.

    print head cleaning

    I hardly ever use my printer so this used to come up really often - the printheads would clog with dried ink and I could never get them to clear properly with the printer's built in software. So buying new cartridges (or even a new printer) every time I wanted to print something became the norm...

    13000 WU is it pants or my PC

    Config would look like: In particular the <!-- Folding Slots --> bit. Also is the card overclocked at all (factory overclock included)?

    13000 WU is it pants or my PC

    Can't see anything out of the ordinary. My core_17s pause untidily like that too. Can you post the config section of the log? I do notice that 1% is taking you 39+ minutes, so I agree there does appear to be something wrong. Have you recently had some updates from microsoft, they could include...

    GPU folding with Q6600

    Are you using your passkey for the QRB? My 7950 is turning out ~115k+ with core_17s on a PCI-e 2 motherboard. The cpu shouldn't be holding you back by anything significant.

    CL Liquid Ultra on GPU (close to chips)

    Help with low framerates and loads

    Even if it's a rev 5.0 board you'll still be restricted a lot in the CPU you can use, and is only PCI-e v2.0. I think the time may have come for you to upgrade both the CPU and the mobo. Everything else can be recycled in your new build.

    **THE NVIDIA DRIVERS THREAD**

    I'll put my money on nVidia already knowing about this capability for a while and only pulled it out when Mantle went beta. $Profit ftw!! ;)

    Temperature problems!

    Disconnect all but one monitor and check the clocks drop as so many peeps are fixated about this one little detail :p

    Temperature problems!

    AB and CCC won't work in safe mode because windows just loads the 'standard vga' drivers, not the full ones.
