He’s a really mundane complaint - why’s there not a user friendly Radio Guide app, in the same vein as TV Guide? I’ve seen how much some of these radio DJs get paid, so I know it’s still a popular medium. So why is it I have to GUESS when they’re on?! My irritation at this has really spurred me on t...

This is what I use for handling multiple monitors on my work laptop: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Docking-Station-Multiport-DisplayPort-Microsoft/dp/B0BTD44C3P/ref=sr_1_3?crid=2OR964Z0QZXTE&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.kZYL-ZyE1AYKLMuZ7HeRG7b_Kh8GuhT8t0Qz17iioGkE5aDKoehj1ky4sgFhZuLUl97sfTe9T_CH7rvWkmshM6CV55X-OJXz...

Thanks Mate, have ordered!

It says it supports Dell, I’m hoping the drivers I already have might work? I really don’t know anything about this sort of thing.

I’ve already tried to pull windows onto the currently useless monitor about five times this morning.

I’ve just bought a second monitor for my WFH setup. I got a splitter that supports monitor extension, but hadn’t realised it would require drivers that I don’t have permission to install. So two questions: 1) Is there any way around it? 2) Are there any splitters that don’t require drivers that will...

Just got up to date with Only Murders in the Building, which I'm really enjoying. I think initially I just wanted to watch it because of Short/Martin, but actally I think it's great generally.

Hopefully it stands the test of use...Assuming that it was something to do with the RAM, why would RAM suddenly need reseating? Heat expansion used to be the reason. As the PC heats and cools during use and downtime, the RAM can incrementally creep out of the correct alignment. Most mobos have clip...

Were the sticks re-seated in the same slots as before? I had an issue earlier this year with an old PC refurb where it was randomly crashing, and it ended with one of the RAM slots bursting into flame . I think it was the DDR controller at fault, though. It’s reseated in the same one. I think I’ll ...

Happy Birthday Sir!

My favourite podcast at the moment is Fall of Civilisations. Each episode focuses on a bygone civilisation and charts its rise and fall. Some of them are feature length (generally they are around two hours a piece, but the longest is >four hours), but really listenable and accessible.

I am posting from my (previously bricked) PC! I'm unsure what the problem was really. I unplugged everything again and replugged everything in, and it seems to have regained life. Hopefully it stands the test of use...Assuming that it was something to do with the RAM, why would RAM suddenly need res...

Do you have 2 strips? If so, remove one and test, then swap to see if both have gone...check the channel orientation for your mobo, as to which slot to use just one in. RAM posts before GFX so if it is faulty memory you wouldn't get video. But would I get lights on my keyboard and mouse? I only hav...

Okay bit of an update. I’m now getting some action. I disconnected and reconnected some stuff and now I’m getting one long beep and two short, which the internet informs me is a RAM error. So my question now is, could it have always been a RAM error, or have I probably fucked my RAM faffing about wi...

What is the model of the Mobo? It should have some form of POST beep codes/led's to inform you of where in the chain the problem might be. A quick google suggests this is the beep that it makes when you turn it on? It doesn’t beep at all currently. It’s probably worth mentioning that the computer h...

Well there goes my theory. Yes the fan is still going.

Alright Gents let’s see if one of you can help because I’m at my wit’s end. Computer was working fine. About a week ago I had a few crashes, nothing too serious. Earlier I booted it up, and it crashed again. Reset it, now nothing loads. The computer turns on, fans are whirring, but nothing else, no ...
