Thanks for the speedy replies. It's just a basic PC and no overclocking settings to worry about. Thanks again.

A long time since I visited the site and would appreciate some help please. 10 year old budget build (parts from Overclockers) and all has been fine till now. I have had issues with Windows not loading (hanging) recently but OK on a reset. Also the POST time till first beep can take a minute...

What did that lot cost you?

You'll have to explain what you mean - sorry

Earlier today my laptop didn't boot normally. I had a prompt about BIOS which I accepted (I cannot remember what it said) and it booted up. It appears OK with the exception the keyboard is totally not working. I cannot access BIOS because the keyboard Esc doesn't work. Where do I go from here...

I've had problems (as all my neighbours) with VM BB for a few weeks now. Although the download speed is great, the upload is less than .02 and it causing great problems for my lad who's working from home. I've had all the promises from VM CS that it's being dealt with , there is no progress...

I have had the option of a restart to upgrade for a while now. I don't feel comfortable upgrading and would like to refuse the update, can I. Or is their a deferral for a long time available. Could you talk me through the procedure if I can. Thanks

I have 3 old ntlworld.com email addresses that have always sufficed together with MS Live Mail client on my PC. Recently however the client has been unable to retrieve the emails from VM along with millions of other users. I also have gmail accounts that I use for financial matters that I now...

I have found the option for TV although it was obviously there last night. I was confused as both the laptop speakers and the TV option both had (NVIDEA HD Audio) next to it and I mistakenly thought it was a duplicate. Thanks for your patience.

I changed the above post to Display Port

I have Zoom installed on an HP laptop and it works well. I want to project it my TV and have been able to do it via Display Port - HDMI cable and again it works well, but. I cannot extend the audio. When I use the laptop to TV for say YouTube or Kodi, it mutes the laptop and extends the audio to...

My OS is already installed and I want the key remembered as it is now on a digital licence. Will a local account do that?

OK so I can register the PC on the same account. I am concerned with the MS account as attempts have been made in the past (unsuccessfully) to log in. Because of that I always log out. My question therefor is, is there any reason why you cannot just register you machine and keep logged out...

I have a MS account which I believe my laptop is already registered to. Because I wish to change hardware in the future, I now need to register my PC to a MS account in case I need to reinstall OS and activate it. Do you have to have a separate account or you log on to your existing one and...

Yes you're all right. I can either create libraries or just add the folder to quick access and pin it. Many thanks for info.

I now realise in W7 those quick access folders were know as Libraries which under W10 they aren't. Perhaps that's the difference.

I know the Easy Access Documents folder in W10 accesses C:\Users\My Documents. But is it possible to have additional locations too. Using W7, I was able to right click Documents and under the location tab, select additional locations. When view I was able to see eg. C:\Users & D:\Invoices for...

Can anyone tell me how to centralise a Word documents permanently. Now I use a widescreen monitor I have them aligned to the left. I have managed - by two methods - to centralise them but the setting doesn't stay saved. Therefore when I open Word again they are aligned left. Is there a way to...

No, I'm on 200MB VirginMedia BB. Thanks for all the help and suggestions. I've got plenty to work on and even a card to install and perhaps memory increase if I want. I'll most probably do my W7 - W10 upgrade first and take it from there. Thanks again.

It seemed to make no difference on either IE or Chrome
