Are they WATTMAN errors? My AMD has them constantly with newer games, even after updating the drivers. I know i'm pushing Starfield on my 590x even on low settings, but this has been going on years. Never been able to identify the reason or stop it happening

That is the worry, we know people have got in in previous years using the same approach we are, however, this year it just rammed with applications due to child numbers, it's crazy

Really, because we have a headmistress at the current school and a governor at the new school that have both said that they've seen people get in on that.

Not at all, my middle child isn't academic, everything has been a struggle, he's not slow/dumb, just but just isn't really interested.He's 8, finally got him into reading, we're doing handwriting practice at home etc, but he's just very laid back about everything

We've actually got her booked in for the Newports Girls school entrance test, which is in something like the top 20 in the country, but as it's "all girls" and a lot of her friends are boys she's a little worried about it. It's better than the school she actually wants to go to, but that is...

I've actually joked with the wife that we should just rent a flat in this town and pretend we've separated, use that address to get her in and then "get back together" We'd need to pretend to separate so she can still get the bus from our town. Wife said no... was looking forward to some peace...

Hi all, I'm wondering if anyone has been through a secondary school placement appeal for one of their children and would share their experiences of it? We've just had the date through for our daughters and although we have prepared for it, you can't be too prepared. The main thing we're going...

Picked up the 212 Evo earlier, mounted it and now running temps between 20-50'c :) thanks for the advice everyone :)

Nice one, I'll have a look. CPU cooler had a melt down 2 days ago so I've been sorting that :D

Hi all, I've got an old I7 3770 (i think) system that's been playing up for a while now I put it down to either the PSU or GFX card but over the last 2 days, I've turned it on, CPU temps have gone to 105 within about 3 minutes and it's shut off. Applied some thermal paste and it's done...

Generally they'd don't run, but if I run a stress test in the AMD Softare they do, but during gaming they often don't either even with temps getting 70+'c it's just one of those really quirky issues that I can't seem to narrow down

Hi all, I've got a Radeon RX 590 gfx card, used to be fine, ran 2 monitors etc. About 9 months ago I started getting issues with 1 monitor not turning on after the PC had gone to sleep. Used to unplug it's power socket and plug it back in a couple of times and it would work, then just...

Sorry, haven't been on in ages. My daughter uses Dex quite a bit on a monitor, with an amazon USB-C adapter with HDMI but 75% of her use is adapter and direct on the tablet. She is always on her Tab, it's absolutely great and I can see her using it well into secondary school to help with...

Had similar issues with their 12 year rust guarantee on my mk5 golf, car was 11 years when I reported it, garage kept saying it wasn't covered. I'm telling them I know rusty sills where it meets the front wing is covered, that you replace the wing, fix the sill and fit a zinc plate to stop it...

26mpg, seems to be my standard in my modified mk5. regardless of the distance/drive style it alway seems to come out at 26mpg :D

Daft question, have you tried twitter for volkswagen uk? I've had to go via them a couple of times to get issues sorted, they hate negative publicity.

So, I've decided to have another go at online play using a character I made quite a while ago. Looks like he's had a hard life and noticed I've a free Change of Appearance but I cannot figure out how to do it. Everything online says to into Free Play > options > Online settings > change...

I once worked for an online gambling company where we had a staff area with massive tv and a PS4 and an Xbox One, all inside a secured building. One of the CS staff come one evening and asked me if we've anyone new in my team as there was someone new in the break area. We hadn't and only...

generally I'd say no, PC due to windows + various hardware differences normally have more bugs, also games are usually developed for console then ported to PC. However, if games are ported from PC to xbox for instance then yes, I'd imagine there could be a few more issues with it.

Yeah, I'd unplugged the USB harddrive, and the digital out for the TV. the only thing running is the sky+ box and the TV from that outlet. All the consoles/printer are on a separate one as we only use one at a time. Covering IR sensor, when it first started doing it there was a mug in front...
