    Desk choice

    If you have an office chair with arms you might find they can't go under the MICKE because of the drawers. They also arent very deep. I would try one out before buying. 80cm isn't that wide so you could cut down a worktop and screw some IKEA legs on it. If you don't plan to put much weight...

    Best card for a Q6600

    I recently bought a system second hand, but now the graphic card seems to have died and seems it only had a 1 year warrenty (OCUK Radeon 4890)! My specs are as follows Intel Quad GO 6600 (not overclocked it yet but previous seller got it up to 3.8ghz), Asus Maximus Formula II, Corsair pc6400...

    Monitor Exploded :(

    I've poked around the inside back of the monitor (where the electronics are) and I can't see anything that looks like it went bang. And the fuse is blown on the power/inverter board. So maybe one of the cathode lights went. I've not taken a look inside yet since it seemed a bit complicated to...

    Monitor Exploded :(

    Yeah, i was expecting it to last longer than 4 years. It doesnt switch on at all, no power light or anything, tried it with another lead so i dont think it's the fuse. I guess I'll poke around inside, I did see a post on here that mentioned a place where you can buy a new PSU for self repair...

    Monitor Exploded :(

    My Dell 2405FPW just went pop! Windows had put it into power saving mode/standby, and when i moved the mouse there was a white flash on the screen (towards the right side of the screen) and a loud pop sound. Wasnt really a smell of buring or any smoke, but now the monitor doesnt seem to power...

    404 pages aren't being served for incorrect urls ending in .php

    directories and html files that dont exist get forwarded to the error page specified (the url actually changes, I thought it just serves that file but the url should stay the same?) php files that dont exist still produce a blank white page

    404 pages aren't being served for incorrect urls ending in .php

    It's an apache server. I've contacted my clients host, but so far he hasn't been able to solve the issue.

    404 pages aren't being served for incorrect urls ending in .php

    I have a weird problem on a clients server. If you type in an incorrect url which ends in .php it doesnt show a 404 page and returns a blank page with a 200 header. www.example.com/nothere/ - gives servers 404 page www.example.com/nothere.html - gives servers 404 page...

    Does horizontal web design.. work?

    I like using my scrollwheel, so any site that forces me to use a toolbar is annoying. It can also be hard to figure out where something starts and ends on horizontal sites.

    Left £20 in an ATM

    I once manually typed in £40 and got something like £140 in notes. I was a bit surprised thinking I had typed in the wrong amount but I didn't and was had £40 taken from my account...

    How much would this cost (design)

    I do this kind of thing for a job. The functionality you describe sounds like you want a developer rather than a designer. Since it's just a personal site you could consider using a free or premium template for the design. It will mean there will be a few other sites on the net that look...

    Build Advice - Budget vs Mid Range system

    Thanks, I need the basic tower spec :) I would like to reuse my current case though (+ monitor, keyboard, mouse, speakers, DVD RW), assuming current motherboards fit in an 6year old coolermaster 201 case? but feel free to spec a case anyway. I dont plan to overclock at the moment, but thats...

    Build Advice - Budget vs Mid Range system

    I guess I want to spend not too much more than £500, I would go over this if there was a real argument to do so. I do photoshop daily, more screen stuff than high res print stuff. Gaming is nice on the odd evening. CPU wise, is the Q6600 still the best bang for your buck quad? What is a...

    Build Advice - Budget vs Mid Range system

    Hi guys I have a habit of not upgrading very often, i think this pc is about 6 years old (P4 2.2ghz, but gpu is newer). But it's now falling under spec of modern games so would like something new. What I want to know if it makes more sense to get a budget system (£300-£500) now and...

    cheap 2.1 speakers?

    I am looking for some reccomended 2.1 speakers, £10-£30. These are actually going to be (re)used for a variety of interactive art/kiosk type projects, rather than playing music and games. So they are more likely to be playing sound effects and voices than music. Also been nice if they are...
