    Enforced Upgrade

    I'm running dual boot operating systems, one being a hackintosh that only works with intel chips as far as I'm aware.

    Enforced Upgrade

    In moving my system into an nice big new case I think I’ve killed my motherboard. It won’t post, tried all sorts of things that I’ve seen suggested online but no joy. Old system was i5 4670k, Z87X-UD3H motherboard. So rather than try to find an old replacement motherboard I might as well...

    Unpaid debts linked to my address - what can I do?

    Sign up to Experian - I think they do a free trial period. Just keep an eye on it and it'll show if there's any kind of 'black mark' against your name.

    Quite, but the DJs at weddings are rarely good.

    Wedding - Evening Entertainment

    I've been to quite a lot of weddings as a photographer now and the live bands have been sooooo much better than DJs or iPod playlists for getting people up and dancing. I always cringe when the DJs start getting on the mic but I can understand why they do it if things get a bit flat. By far...

    **SPOILERS** Football 26th Feb - 2nd Mar 2011

    As an Orient fan thanks for that. We were always going to get thumped by Arsenal, I was just surprised it took two games for it to happen. I thought we actually played better last night than we did in the first game and had more of the ball but Arsenal's finishing was soooooo much better last...

    OK, how can a picture frame be "approximately" a size both in Metric and Imperial?

    The actual 'viewable area' is smaller than the stated size so unless the edges are critical it shouln't really matter. I mount my prints before framing anyway to get rid of this problem. A 500mmx400mm mount will fit in a 20"x16" frame without any visible gaps and vice versa.

    More raid - partition question

    OK thanks. I don't think accessing the other partition will be a problem as I was intending to use it for a different OS so it shouldn't need to access that bit anyway.

    More raid - partition question

    I have a question as a Raid novice...I have 2 x 1TB drives and a new copy of windows 7 that I've not installed yet. I was wondering if I should set up the 2TB drives in Raid 0 for speed and then partition the drive so I can install windows on one partition and maybe Linux on another as a dual...

    FTP question - website redirects

    Many thanks Pho, that all makes perfect sense now. I just wanted to double check nothing funny was going on. Thanks swinnie too. I've got that bit sorted now but was curious as to why the page was redirecting.

    FTP question - website redirects

    I was just looking into putting an ftp folder on my webspace so someone I know can transfer files to me and during my investigations about how to do this I just replaced 'www' in my web address with 'ftp' to see what would happen. it redirected to a completely unrelated website. My websitse...

    'budget' i7 build thoughts please

    @AndyOcUK - Actually, just checked and it's the Antec 430W True Power. Presume that's definitely too low.

    'budget' i7 build thoughts please

    Does that come with the cooler? The photo suggests it does but it's not listed in the product description. EDIT - and one other question. Will that 450W PSU power this system or do I need to upgrade that too?

    'budget' i7 build thoughts please

    :D I'll look into it. Thanks. I know I'm probably just penny pinching here but is it really worth spending nearly £60 of a CPU cooler?
