    Windows 10 reformat problems

    Hello, Here's the explanation, my friend has purchased a laptop from his daughters fiancé, as soon as he got it he called me over because he had "problems". I arrived, and he passed the laptop over to me, his daughters fiancé's account was still active, I told my friend that he should take it...

    Solved Dual screen

    Cable came today, as well as my replacement cooler, I felt like a kid in a candy shop (I am easily excited). Hooked the new cable up and I now have dual screen, I'm kind of glad that it wasn't the GPU slots, kind of had me worried (though that's being upgraded this month too). It was the DVI...

    Solved Dual screen

    That is all correct. I'm not exactly sure on maximum but the recommended output is 1600x768. I have ordered a VGA to DVI cable, it was only cheap so I thought I might as well try that to see if the little adapter was the problem. Though whenever that will arrive is beyond me, it's meant to...

    Solved Dual screen

    Hey there, I realise that my original post was not thoroughly detailed, you have my apologies. I'm not using a VGA -> DVI cable, I'm actually using a VGA -> VGA, with a VGA -> DVI connector, in my rush to type, I just typed VGA -> DVI, it was my mistake. I have just checked the monitor on...

    Solved Dual screen

    Hey there, Until my parts come ready for VR, I decided to try and make use out of an old LG monitor I had laying around. I was hoping to do a dual display, so I can happily surf the net whilst playing. However, I've encountered a problem, the LG monitor constantly says "Check Signal Cable"...

    oki koki Thank you for the advice. I should deem this thread as solved until I get a replacement liquid cooler. Thank you to everyone, you've all been excellent with amazing advice :) Kudos to all of you

    Ah I see, well going of them, I seem to be heading in the right direction. Have you got one that sticks out as the best build? Taking cost effectiveness etc into consideration?

    oki koki, I'm presuming one with better quality then mine, I think mines under as a bronze 600w. Though the make isn't too good, what about a corsair?

    Hello, thanks for the recommendations, I've singled out the others and slimmed it down to these two, as they seem to be ideally round my price range (granted one is apr. £400 above my price range). Though to me, they seem to be solid performers, and I dont think I'd have much trouble with them...

    Ah, I'm not all that clued up on when things are going kaput, but I'll look into getting a new PSU, though, judging from my past choices I think I may need a little help.

    Virtual Reality

    Okay, so my computer is by far the best, but for now it will happily do what I want it to do (barring a recent problem with my water cooler). Though I'm now looking into the direction of VR gaming. I know full well my PC is by far outmatched when it comes to being "VR ready". So I was wondering...

    Indeed I was, it seems that the maelstrom is getting more and more popular. I did honestly love it whilst I had it. I miss the little pulsing face, and the extra fan lol. Though I've sent DEEPCOOL an email with proof of purchase etc, I'm just waiting for a reply. Yeah that's the main regret of...

    Ah, you mean how the liquid cooler was installed when I ran into the issues? or do you mean the other fans on my computer? I was actually told on this forum that I should switch the liquid coolers fan around to change the direction of the air flow. I originally had it with the emblem showing...
