    Webcam Launch Black Screen with White Square

    My old graphics card though packed in quickly I feel, just shy of 4 years. You would expect it t9 last many more years than that wouldn't you? My Dell computer before I bought this one in 2020 is still working now (as far as I know) and the graphics card hadn't packed in before 2020 and I bought...

    Webcam Launch Black Screen with White Square

    I've tried, there doesn't seem to be a driver for that card for Windows 11. I've tried a Windows 10 driver for it but wouldn't install. The graphics card is NVIDIA Quadro FX 1800.

    Webcam Launch Black Screen with White Square

    Yeah no drivers were installed for the new graphics card as far as I'm aware. It just worked. Also in Device Manager, it's saying that the graphics card drivers and the webcam drivers detected are the best for that device. The fan lead was never connected on the new graphics card as it wasn't in...

    Replacing HDMI ports!

    I still have the issue with the monitors but you're gonna laugh now, when I unplugged one HDMI lead and the computer went off, it was the power lead inadvertently came out. Someone's given me a graphics card now which I'm gonna install tomorrow.

    Replacing HDMI ports!

    Just had a worrying thing happen with my computer. Plugged all the leads in in the back and was trying boot it up again. Monitor still blank so I unplugged it from the HDMI port to try it in a different port in case it was the wrong one (as only one was working) and the computer just went off...

    Replacing HDMI ports!

    Continuing on from this thread. I did have 1 monitor out of my 3 working (my main 22" one) and now I'm just getting a blank screen. I did turn my computer off, unplug everything, replug it in and reboot and it booted up but now doesn't seem to be even doing that or at least the monitor remains...

    Powerline Adapter Issue

    My WiFi is fine but it can't leap from my lounge to my bedroom lol! Do people think though that if there are no lights lighting up at all on the adapter in my lounge, then it's more than likely the adapter?

    Powerline Adapter Issue

    Computer Suddenly Won't Boot
