Thanks. Just found that Macrium Reflect works on a 30 day trial. Copying as I type ...

Was going to try clonezilla, but couldn't find a usb drive to boot it from ! I have a few lying about, but I'm so disorganised that I couldn't find one when I needed it.

Thanks for the suggestion though.

Finally built upgraded system, and now want to move system from HDD to new SSD. So I need to clone a drive basically. I cant find any software that will let me do this without shelling out quite a large sum first, but I'm certain there must be a free utility out there ... Anybody used one that they ...

A quick look at AMD vs Intel suggests that processor-wise the cost/speed ratio is similar, but the motherboard costs are pushing me towards Intel. Happy to be corrected if this isn't the case. UserBenchmark site puts 12600k and 7600X processors within a couple of percentage points on performance - d...

I've been thinking about upgrading for a while now, as my hardware is getting a bit long in the tooth, and I've got a 1440 monitor now, which the current PC struggles with sometimes. Currently have: i5 4670K 3.4GHz GTX 10540Ti 16GB DDR 3 memory I want something that I'll certainly notice the differe...

He lived in Tameside, South-East Manchester, so somewhere in the Denton/Hyde/Ashton area - which is just a few miles from me, and where I often take my pupils (I'm a driving instructor). I think of him each time I'm in the area, but I don't know where he lived. It would be good to be able to drop a ...

Might I just add that the manner in which you have talked to us about your issues, and the grace with which you are facing them is absolutely inspiring.

You are an amazing man. And you will certainly be truly missed.

It works fine most of the time, and always reappears if I reboot. It just sometimes (maybe a few weeks interval) becomes invisible to the computer. I'll peep at the bios and swap the cable and see what happens. Thanks. Fortunately it's only used for games, so it's not a disaster if I lose all the da...

I've an ssd on my system. Been there six months or so I think. But it's developed an intermittent issue of disappearing occasionally.

It works fine after a reboot.

Anyone know how I can change its behaviour?

Thank you in advance.

Anyone tempted by euiv, but put off by the cost of all the dlc involved, humble-bundle are selling the game plus all dlc bar the latest for less than 16 GBP for the next week or so.

Edit. Available for next 16 days actually.

What does a 1440 screen look like running a game at 1080? Does the scaling make for a blurry image? I should have asked this at the same time as the original post, but it did not occur to me until too late.

Thanks for the replies so far.

Not quite part of this new PC thread, but I think close enough to not warrant starting a new thread entirely, so .... I have quite an old monitor - it's a 19" 1440x900 job. Recently I had access to a 1080 monitor, which was nice, but has gone back today. I'm feeling the need to upgrade the monitor n...

The US left military equipment worth 85 billion US dollar in Afgahnistan. To put that number into context, Russia's yearly military budget is roughly 62 billion US dollar. Or to put it into another context this is 4 times more money than Afghanistan's yearly GDP. For a bit more context, this is aro...

Saints Row 3 on Epic now if anyone is interested.

My friend who is just coming to the end of his chemo found it got progressively more knackering, sorry to say. He has a routine where he does a weeks worth of food shopping the morning of his chemo day, so he's set up for long enough to recover. I hope it isn't the case for you, I really do. And tha...

Success for me at the moment would be finding a way to get my tiny little python script to convert to an exe...

I've tried pyinstaller and cx_Freeze, but they just throw errors at me that I can't fathom even with Google's help.

So, not a good definition, but a very specific one at least...

Fantastic post tahtohnkah.

Clear and calm.

Look forward to hearing more from you.

Rug

Quite relieved to see that I'm not alone in not missing him. I though I might be a bit of a curmudgeon!

Be good to see some others back though.

Any idea how antilogic is doing? RM?

Sorry.....

I've heard (and read) good thigs about Rockstar's RDR2, and am quite tempted to add it to my collection. But I've got lots of GTA games (also from Rockstar of course) that I've never really got into at all. I don't know if the lack of financial commitment to the free GTA games is part of the issue, ...
