    ISDone.dll error diagnosis please

    Hi, I've recently encountered the ISDone.dll error when trying to install games. It basically pops up about 3 quarters of the way through installation. I've changed the virtual memory for each drive, tried installing to different drives and even transferring the file onto each drive during...

    Help requested for Microsoft Office problem

    Hi, In a nutshell, I have a Microsoft Office document, the front page is a header, footer and a graphic on the side. I want all subsequent new pages to be blank, however when I hit return at the end of the document, or choose "insert blank page", it repeats a copy of the first letterheaded...

    Anyone use voice commands to control their PC?

    Looks good! Do I need to program and train it to open every album folder on my computer though or can it intelligent search based on my speech input? Had a quick look on YouTube and some guy has set it up to open specific play lists via VLC, but I want something that will play whatever I ask...

    Anyone use voice commands to control their PC?

    So basically I got a new phone the other week that came with "OK Google" or whatever the actual app is called. I'm pretty impressed with the things it can do with my phone, from opening apps to writing texts for me and playing tracks I choose, all by voice command. My question is, is there a...

    Cheap streaming box/mini computer solution.

    Basically I need something that I can stream Netflix and Amazon on using my WiFi, but that I can also plug an external hard drive into that can play files of different formats. Been using a Firestick and my Sony smart TV, but a lot of different files and audio codecs from my hard drive aren't...

    Advice with eBay drama !

    I offered more money in the first place because it's apparently a family heirloom and I felt a bit bad for winning it at such a low price. I was willing to pay more for it if it was in good condition. To be honest it was at least half a carrot on a stick move to make sure he followed through...

    Advice with eBay drama !

    He already sent it, I've got it right now. He's saying I owe him the money that I offered (as a goodwill gesture) and until I pay it the item isn't mine. He either wants me to return the item to him, where he will refund me in full, or send him more money to keep it and avoid his solicitor. I...

    Advice with eBay drama !

    Ok, so basically I recently bid on an item and surprisingly won with a very low bid. I sent a message to the seller letting him know that I was willing to bung him a bit more cash as a good will gesture providing the item arrived safetly and was as described. On receipt of the item, I found...

    How do YOU organise your game collections ?

    I've been playing about with Nvidias Geforce Experience software and really like the way it organises my games and adds box art etc. The only problem is, you can only import games into the Geforce interface that are Geforce optimized. Is there any decent software out there that does something...

    Moving games to new HDD without reinstalling ?

    Yeah I'm not installing Windows. The original installation with the game registry entries will remain on my separate SSD. I just need to upgrade the drive with my game installs onto a larger one.

    Moving games to new HDD without reinstalling ?

    I've had trouble when I've installed a clean OS and tried to use the old HDD with the game installs on because there are obvioulsy registry entries installed on the C drive that would be missing. My thinking is, as long as the file path is the same it should work ? Unless it writes hard...

    Moving games to new HDD without reinstalling ?

    Hi, I currently have a Corsair SSD with just my OS installed, then I have a secondary drive that I keep just games on. It's only 500gb and I'm looking to upgrade to a 2tb drive and was wondering if it's as simple as formatting the new drive with the same drive letter as the "game" drive...

    R9 280X vS gtx 980 Ti worth the upgrade ?

    I didn't think I'd notice such a considerable difference. I'd heard people say anything over 60fps is pointless in gaming because your eyes cant differentiate between 60fps and say 100fps. It's clearly nonsense. To be fair I was happy with the R9 280X performance, until I plugged this bad...

    Project cars, racing out of class cars against each other offline ?

    Just wondering if there is a way to set up a 1vs1 race against particular cars in offline mode from different classes ? I want to do some silly races against the computer, like an f1 car Vs a Zonda, or just pick a particular car to race against. Is there any way to do that ? Tried...

    R9 280X vS gtx 980 Ti worth the upgrade ?

    Well guys, I installed my new card yesterday evening and I couldn't be happier. Maxed out Project cars and the frame rates are blistering with no microstutter or draw distance problems, GTA 5 looks awesome and the frame rates again are 60+ maxed out Just overall a much smoother experience...

    R9 280X vS gtx 980 Ti worth the upgrade ?

    So , I've been offered an Inno3d GTX 980 Ti Hercules (6GB) by a friend for £200... I'm currently running an i7 2600k @4.6ghz with a Sapphire r9 280x Vapor X (3GB) My question is, is it worth the upgrade for the money, and will my CPU bottle neck the card in any way ? as I've had the CPU...
