  1. cheers everyone . much appreciated for all your help and tips
  2. cheers mate ... i sort of heard acronis before... i'll give this one ago .. thanks for your help
  3. Hi all i have a small 120gb SSD thats nearly always full. So ive snapped an intel 730 SSD 480GB to replace it at a bargain price. Now im wanting to know whats the best safest way to "clone" from 120gb to 480gb without having to reinstall microsoft 7 licence etc or start from scratch without losing lots of pics and stuff i have on there. I do have the original microsoft disc (win7) here. Ive been reading this link and see if anyone had a go with it and see if its successful or not http://www.pcworld.com/article/2086644/how-to-upgrade-to-a-larger-hard-drive.html software is called EaseUS Todo Backup Free any advice or tips you can tell me
  4. yeah i threw that factory PSU in the bin and installed silverstone or corsair ( i cant rem now) 500watts bronze PSU. Much Much better now .
  5. his specs are as follow . its shits imo .... it was built by a friend of mine.
  6. hi everyone .. it turns out untrusted third party software hiding in there .. so i got rid of it . cleaned up his pc . threw out his msi crappy video card .. its def dead cause i tried to test it to my other spare PC . So i'll get him a better new one soon. i also installed a spare harddrive for back up only . its running real good now. Probably good for another 2 or 3 years to go then i'll build him a better pc myself with better quality parts . cheers everyone for your inputs and ideas
  7. Hi my hubby complains that his 3 years old PC that has MSI mobo that started blacking out on the monitor every minute or so and back to normal then black out again then normal .. so on . At first i thought it was the new 6 mths old 23 inch LG monitor thats doing it . So i put an older known working lcd monitor to test his PC. nup its still blacking out. So im thinking its his msi mobo graphic on board is stuffing or on its way out. is there any other ways to test or tips to do next to stop the blacking out? before i buy a new mobo for him thanks oh i heard 4 beeps on start up if that helps . i googled it says mobo's bad. ?
  8. wow i really like the second wood case best !!! its very nice looking case
  9. its all good now ... i had to do system restore point ... and now its fine.. So i think it was one of these freebies online pc games that i download it and it was trojen. Even kaspersky didnt get rid of it for some reason.. but it did warned me about it . so i didnt install it ..... Anyway its fine now and back to normal
  10. looks leaking to me .. not glued down. I'll have another look later this week to see if theres any more leaks . yeah it could be software glitch as well .... i'll keep an eye on it for few wks
  11. nothing really .. just reading facebook feeds ....this got me stumped... i think since i have updated to latest evga software that seems to have fixed it ....
  12. ok i have set the evga to default and seems to be stable atm ......... and the voltage reading has dropped from 250 to 99.
  13. Hi I've noticed my GTX680 went into overdrive and uses so much voltage and the temp went to 100degree. I have adjusted the fan to full to cool it down ...... So i thought it must have some dust in it.. I have removed it and cleaned it.. it wasnt much dust really , just a lil bit. I opened the outer case and see if insides ok. I noticed that R22 chip in the middle is missing or is that how it is ? The red cap at the top left side is leaking abit. This graphic card is only a year old. I have updated the EVGA software to make few adjustment to bring down the temp. but i dont really know whats right voltage, power target, GPU clock offset etc. I mainly use internet and youtube clips to watch ........ Sorry I didnt get to print screen the previous one when it went into overdrive ..........
