Gavin, Ubersonic You guys are absolute heroes. Many thanks for this, it has worked a treat

Hi Any help would be massively appreciated. I have had my set up now for roughly 10 years but yesterday for no apparent reason my graphics card stopped working as it should do on windows 10. My PC detects that it’s there however the drivers seem to have disappeared and on trying to install...

I have a 120D ED 2007. I'm assuming you're referring to stopping for a short period of time i.e. at a set of traffic lights. To be fair I experience the same thing but don't attribute it to the battery. I have noticed that if your routine service light comes on then ED kicks in less...

Stulid Thanks very much for your time and your thoughts - much appreciated Regards Jonathan

Spec as follows - it was built in summer 2008, and I'm currently running Windows 7 Ultimate Edition 64bit Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600 "Energy Efficient SLACR 95W Edition" 2.40GHz (1066FSB) - Retail Asus Maximus Extreme Intel X38 (Socket 775) PCI-Express DDR3 Motherboard OCZ Platinum 4GB (2x2GB)...

So your immediate thoughts are PSU rather than a case issue?

Hi Folks Recently I have been having issues with my CPU crashing or rather freezing when either browsing the 'net or running media player for movies etc. I have updated all drivers for everything - fresh installation and the like and still it happens however only sporadically in the winter...

Hi All Now firstly I dunno whether this under the right heading but, my feelnigs are that all problems pint to my motherboard here I have recently just built my first system which is a Q6600, Asus Maximus Extreme mobo, with sound card, 4gb OCZ platinum DDR3 RAM, Sapphire 3870 Toxic...

I've just hyad a thought. I have a cable running from the case to the sound card as there are two audio jacks on the front of the case. Could this possible be causing a conflict??? Resulting in the two rear speakers not running properly??

Thanks for your reply It's set up through the software that came with the sound card / motherboard. To be honest this is the first time I have ever used Vista having only built my PC yesterday so apologies if I am Vista illiterate. I know on XP that you have to set it up in the speaker...

Hi All I have recently bought a new maximus extreme mobo with the sound card supplied with it so I decided to fit it in and give it a whirl How do you get the sound working on vista for this one. I have a 5.1 set up at the moment and can get it running through the two front speakers but...

Champion - thanks for that

Hi All No doubt this will be a repost but does this motherboard need to have a water cooling system for it to work? Cheers https://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=MB-251-AS&tool=3

Sorry folks basically all I want to know is which is the best method to go for, I don't know whether I want to use crossfire or SLI in the future, but i'm not bothered about it in the near future. So which route given the choice would you opt to go down? Sorry if I'm being a bit vague...

Hi Folks I've already posted a thread on asking for help in building a new PC. I haven't bought a PC now for 5 years and now the time has come to upgrade. Please forgive my ignorance but what exactly are the pros and cons of having the following chipsets P45 (I suppose too early to...

Cheers folks, so can you recommend me a good motherboard and RAM for it. Also what's the news on the new graphics cards?

I'm after a PC for about £1000. I'm not the biggest of gamers but I don't wanna buy now and have to upgrade again in a year and a half or so if you know what I mean I already have a 600W case for this to go in, just need the bits for it I've made up my mind to go Intel Core 2 Quad and...

Cheers folks - Have you not heard any stories of these going wrong at all?

Hello All Long time since i've posted on here. General question. A mate has been buying a Seat Leon 1.9 TDI (90bhp), and now thinks it's too sluggish. He's thinking about getting an ECU remap. I've also toyed with the idea of getting my BMW 320d (150bhp) done but thought against it...
