Definitely NOT Starfield - been playing pc games since the first Elite a long time ago. Played dozens of FPS and XXX games and loved Bethesdas Fallout series and was so looking forward to Starfield but it was a huge disappointment. Storyline was OK, exploration in space was let down by the...

Hi all, I want to test a pc put together with some of mine and my sons old spare parts before I sell it. It has no fans, storage or psu so I just need to see if it gets into the BIOS. The only psu I have is in my new pc (Corsair RM650 Watt). Can I just unplug the 8 pin CPU and 24 pin ATX Mobo...

Repair bar sorted - I had turned stuff off in the HUD in an effort to make the game more difficult - its the easiest Far Cry game I've played with hardly any really challenging missions . 18% into the game, I hope it gets better. Wing suit - I try it out if I can take off from a really high...

Hi , as above:- 1 - Wing suit - I can deploy it but most times I hit the deck straight away after taking off - its nowhere near as easy to control as it was in the other FC games Ive played, Im old school and using the keyboard right shift to deploy and arrow keys to try to guide it, I read...

Yes, Microsoft are fairly new to this PC OS lark aren't they - I suppose I should cut them some slack.

Cheers Aeacus, I saw this - its what led me to turn off the XBox game bar - didnt know I had one -as I said I havent got an XBox ,its not stopping me playing games its just annoying on a new pc.Ive had Windows PCs for years and never seen this before.

Hi all, I finished a new build at the start of January (2023) and each time I start a pc game - Mech 5, Far Cry 6, Doom Eternal - I get a windows 11 pop up message saying "Get an app to open this "MS gaming overlay link". Your PC doesn't have an app that can open this link. Try looking for...

Well the mouse is very good .Gaming wise I thought I would try it out in Mechwarrior 5 but the G-HUB instructions are almost non existent. I needed to watch several YouTubevideos to get started - binding the mouse buttons 1 to 5 to the usual fire buttons etc and 7 and 8 to lance commands...

Further to the above............Sending the Asus TUF M4 mouse back to Scan Computers UK as I needed to install "Armory Crate" to program the buttons and it will not recognise the mouse despite suggestions from Asus support. So yesterday I bought the Logitech G502 Lightspeed wireless mouse -...

Thanks for the quick reply and the link FM, I will look into them. The actual blurb on Asus' /Amazon is "Six tactile, programmable buttons ......." which is correct but I think is misleading ,seeing as its sold as a gaming mouse. I will probably be returning it anyway as Asus' piece of...

Just bought an Asus TUF M4 "6 button " mouse - £50 - to replace the tiny "5 button" £10 one I've been using in games for years and discovered its not really 6 buttons when your gaming its 5 'cos you cannot bind the DPI button above the scroll wheel. Is there any way using 3rd party software...

Thanks Lutfij - thats the way to do it!

As above - no-one can see it so it doesn't need to be on when I'm on the pc. Its a "Asus Tuf gaming b660 plus wifi d4" motherboard. Thanks guys.

It was my fault - i went to the same site but clicked on "expand" by mistake - hence all the other versions. Sorry to be a pain but do I need Armory Crate? -Ive no rgb at all other than the lights on the mobo which I want to turn off if poss.
