    For Sale (UK): Sony Ericsson C903 Mobile Phone

    To unlock it take it to a market stall or an independant phone shop (eg not a Three, Vodafone, Phones4u etc) and they will do it. It's perfectly legit so you won't have an issue finding someone to do it. Actually just had a quick look and found lots of sites like this, that do it via text or...

    For Sale (UK): Sony Ericsson C903 Mobile Phone

    Anyone looking for a new mobile phone I am selling my Sony Ericsson C903. It has a 5 Mega Pixel Cyber-Shot camera, MP3 and all the mod-cons. It's an unwanted upgrade and I am selling it to pay to pay for ski lessons as my girlfriend is taking me for my first time! On eBay only I'm afraid...

    Urgent help with my psu

    This happened to me. The smaller motherboard power connector wasn't plugged in properly, so I'd check that if I were you. Hope that helps, Doug.

    Do you SketchUp?

    Unigraphics NX4. It's a CAD software. I modelled the objects, then added the textures, lights etc. They are from first and second year uni projects. This year I am going to be modelling public transport, so a bit bigger.

    Wireless is very slow and unreliable

    Hi, I have no idea how to update the firmware! It is a new router though (installed about 2 weeks ago). We have Virgin Media cable broadband. Which means fibre optic cables. There is a cable modem which is plugged into a router. Like I said my laptop and my housemates are working fine...

    Wireless is very slow and unreliable

    I thought that, so have tried a couple of drivers. It connects OK, with the same signal strength as my laptop. It's just the internet that is slow. I thought that as it was connected the drivers were working? Cheers, Doug :)

    question Microsoft publisher

    You haven't got any "Shrink to page" or "Scale to page" options ticked have you? Otherwise I don't know why it is not working. Doug.

    Wireless is very slow and unreliable

    Hi. I have got a D-Link DWL - G510 wireless adapter in my new computer. I am having a lot of problems with it and the speed of the internet. My laptop (I am using now) is working fine, loading up pages in a couple of seconds, however the PC is really slow (2 - 5 kbps). It isn't always like...

    Comments on my build please!

    Final bump before I order the stuff tomorrow. 43 views and only one comment!? Anyone who has any views on this please comment, even if it is to say it will all work. I appreciate you taking the time to look at this, I would just like some reassurance before spending 500 quid!. Thanks, Doug.

    Comments on my build please!

    With the CAD it is the CPU that does all the work - hence the quadcore. Most CAD programs only support (and work better with) workstation cards; Quadro FX etc. My main worry is just running the aero effects smoothly. Also, new question: How are Antec Earthwatts powersupplies? I am looking...

    Motherboard: Is this RAM compatible?

    Just a quick one seeing as no-one has answered my thread in the Desktops section. I am planning on getting this Motherboard (M4A785TD-V EVO). Will this Corsair DDR3 1333mhz XMS3 RAM work in it? It isn't on Corsairs list, but there aren't many mobo's so I thought it could be out of date...

    Comments on my build please!

    Anyone any views/suggestions/criticisms? Sorry to be impatient but I am keen to order this asap as I have been waiting for the money to come in for a little while now! Cheers, Doug.

    Comments on my build please!

    I have finally got the money to get a new computer. It is for uni work, including CAD work. I very rarely play any games. I am looking at this computer as an investment, so am aiming for as upgradable as possible. In terms of budget I am at the max already, so any price reductions/savings will...

    HD3650 or HD4550 or integrated video?

    Hi. I need a low cost basic card for my new build. I will be using an AM3 Phenom II X4. The computer will be used for uni work, such as CAD software. The best cards in the £30 - £35 price range seem to be this Sapphire HD3650 or this Gigabyte HD4550. The alternative is using onboard...

    M4A79XTD EVO & Phenom II X4 945

    How does this mobo and this processor stack up? I will be getting 4Gb of RAM and using Windows 7. I will be using the computer for CAD and other quite intensive, but non-gaming, work. I know the 790X chip might be a little overkill, but at that price it seems to good to be true! Cheers...

    Windows 7 pre-order question

    Yeah thats right, it requires (I'm pretty sure) a clean install. You want to order it quite quick as ebuyer and amazon were both of stock already yesterday. I got mine from PC World for £44.99 with free P&P. Doug.
