  1. OK, so the other day i got my shiny new 1TB drive. Put it in today, allong with a new basket for my ssd i had been waiting on. Before today i had 2x 500GB , 1TB and a 2TB drive connected, i add this new one for some reason i cant quite fathom, they are all gone apart from my ssd. Still physically connected but not showing in the bios or in disk management. I assume this is something either to do with power to the drives (which i don't really think it it is); something with the SATA3 ports as my ssd is the only one which works and is running from SATA6 ports; or its just something ive accidently in my ignorance tweaked in the bios which has screwed everything over... Any ideas? if you need more info on my spec ill add to the thread but let me know. hope you guys can help
  2. my bad, thanks but i dont mean just libraries, i mean the entire user folders (public and all different user accounts) so Desktop, Favourites, Contacts, Documents, Downloads etc...the whole lot it must be possible as my laptop uses this layyout with OS on C: and the user folders on a partition D: anyone??
  3. im not sure that is what i am looking for... i want it to be set up from install so all user files are permanently stored on a seperate partition to the windows folder and program files...?? anyone
  4. That 24" HannsG is here to have a quick look.... not sure if you will deal in GPB or USD but its the cheapest where i live... my entire family and 2 of my mates have hannsg screens of varying sizes and never had a problem...
  5. Well here is my input.... my gaming rig is setup in my living room, im a student and we use it instead of tv....! I have a HannsG 28" monitor, i reckon i could cope with something bigger but thats because i sit on a couch about 6ft away i reckon 28" might be a bit big for your average set-up So i would put my vote in for 24" and if you can 3 of them, when i bought mine HannsG had a 24" for about 130GPB imo though the va / ips panels are better than your bog standard TN the only thing i would splash out on is a screen with LED backlight, otherwise 3 TN panels beats 1 good VA/IPS panel for me any day. Cools....hope that helps!
  6. I'm looking to put together a little cube capable of some serious tessellations... I've had a quick look for 1155 miniITX board but want to overclock it and make the most of the sandybridge, problem is i cant find a P67 board and as i understand it there aren't any P67 boards available and H67 boards don't facilitate an overclock.... can anyone correct me or does anyone know when any 1155 P67 Mini ITX boards will be at my disposal? Cools...
  7. yeah, i've heard about that, dont suppose you know if the fault i explained is likely to be fixed with HQ caps any other ideas?
  8. I have a DGM screen, i think its a TV actually but i use it as a screen, It turns on but when i plug it into my computer it just glows white...... WSOD????!! ideally I am looking for a DIY fix if it is a replaceable module or maybe a power issue... any help appreciated!!!
  9. Righto... my laptop came with this set up so.... does anyone know how to set up your user folders (so including ALL libraries) onto a separate partition or ideally a separate hard drive (which i assume is the same process and know different???) Any help is appreciated....
  10. Yeah that helps...i had a vague idea Thanks eisbar! Don't suppose anyone knows why they call it stepping though as opposed to revision...? Is it just so average Joe doesn't realise that it wasn't perfect first time round..?!?!?
  11. I have been slowly building my knowledge base though www... I haven't posted in a while so its nice to be back!...ignorant as ever... Could someone explain stepping... ...where the term comes from and how it applies to the last few itterations of processors Thanks for the help...recently got my rig to the 'not so magic since sandybridge' 4GHz and couldn't have done that without OCC!!
  12. Can anyone offer some ideas? what is the best setup for 3D gaming, with regards to graphics cards? dont want to spend too much money... any ideas?
  13. is there????? probably wont be getting an ssd for a long while but still curious
