thanks, It's not connected by ethernet, I did try it briefly to see if it solved anything, but then unconnected it again, it did work for about 10 minutes at one point, then the internet went off again

Hi all, apologies if this is in the wrong section, wasn't too sure. I just got a pi 4 model b 8gb, but for some reason, every time I turn it on, the the internet goes off on the router, I've never experienced this before, and it's destroying me, has anyone else encountered this issue, and have...

Thanks for the help, I was trying to do it with a toothbrush as I had nothing better at short notice, I'd not considered compressed air, but I don't have any at the minute, I know it's not ideal, but I was relying on a brush to get the dust out until I get some more compressed air, at which...

Hi, I just go a replacement hard drive for my computer, so decided it would be a good time to strip my computer and remove the dust, when applying thermal paste, me being quite clumsy, I may have accidentally spilled a small amount of the thermal paste onto the ram slot, I've tried both ram...

It's okay found it, doesn't seem to be like any cmos battery I've ever seen before and it appears to be soldered in

Hi all, just looking at someone's old laptop that wouldn't work, on boot up, it said the cmos battery is low, which on a desktop is easy enough to change, I can't seem to find the cmos battery so easily on this, it's a toshiba satellite pro l40, does the battery look like it would on a...

Thanks for the reply, firstly, any of my workings, could be wrong, I like working with computers, but I'd still consider myself an amateur, that said, as far as I know, it has no malware infection, it seems to run fine now, I did a fresh install, the main problem it had, was it kept randomly...

Hi, I'm just working on a work colleagues computer, I've sorted most of the issue's, but try as I might, I can't get the wifi working, I've been searching and installing drivers for ages now, the adapter is present in bios and shows as enabled, I've tried pressing the wifi putton on the function...

Hi all, as the title suggests I've cracked my phone, it's an experia e5, I went for an economy phone as usual as I'd much rather spend my money upgrading my computer and with the expansion card in, it had everything I needed anyway, because it's a cheap phone I have a bit of a dilemma, would...

Thanks, I actually ended up getting the Acer before anyone responded, I am a little impatient, I was thinking Asus also purely because of all the good components they make, one thing that did put me off is the fact it had built in speakers, who the hell uses a monitors built in speakers? anyway...

Hi, as the title suggests, I'm getting a new monitor, I have £100 to spend and although I wanted a better graphics card, I'm currently using a horrible old monitor I got from a boot sale for £5, although it was a bargain for the price, I really need a better one before I get another graphics...

I don't have a great deal running in the back ground, I run cc cleaner regularly, here's what I have running at the minute, obviously Waterfox isn't usually on while gaming photo hosting sites

I have tried to lure out the dust bunnies with really small pieces of carrot, I've been sat here for some time now, and not one dust bunny, I'm beginning to get the impression they don't exist!:rolleyes:

Well, I first noticed it taking ages to load the game, I was prepared to overlook this for the time being, then, just after I launch the game, I noticed the blue loading ring appearing for a while the screen is black, as if the game is about to launch, and it eventually does. Then, as I...

Thanks for the link, forgot you included that, I know if I was going to remove a driver, I'd right click my graphics card in display adapters and uninstall, I will see if I continue having issue's, it works most of the time, and I have Dragon Age withdrawals, if an issue does come up I'll try...

No worries, I do take things you and others on board as I have asked for help. To be honest, I originally started trying to improve the cooling on the case, not the most desperate need to be honest, but money's tight at the minute and fans are cheap. I've added a 14cm fan to the bottom of...

I will take this on board, there could be something else a miss here, I have ignored a couple of bsod's so far, which usually seem to happen when watching video's, occasionally I get a message saying something along the lines of "your video adapter has stopped working, either way, I've paid for...

A bottom of the totem pole card that so far has played all my games without slowdown, apart from the time I tried to put Sims 4 above half graphics, I also played Dragon age without issue for over an hour this afternoon, not that I disagree with you on my card, it is an awful card, but the game...

Last night I noticed quite annoying slowdown while playing Dragon Age, I still don't know the reason why, but upon checking speccy just after quitting, it's reading 54 degrees c, while everything else is considerably lower, I originally had the idea because some models of hd6450, actually do...

I'm aware the card isn't very good, but it's where I'm getting the highest temps by a long shot, I could do with upgrading the card, but the one I'm looking at will be £100 or more, this was about £4, I measured the points between what looks like the screw distance, it is 4.3mm, the same as the...
