Hmm, ok thanks for that. I guess i'll need to buy a proper drive for this PC and one that isn't nearing death. Do you/ anyone else here, have any recommendations for a cheap drive to be used in a 2nd PC & one that has at least an "OK" speed? Also I just did some more testing after my post and I...

Hi, Just got this hard drive for free from a friend that doesnt know much about computers and i said i'd take it and it makes a high pitch scratching like noise so i did SMART test but as I dont really know what to look for other than the caution signs, I dont really know whats wrong with it, if...

I don't really know much about the components but I've been leaving this aside for too long and I believe all my motherboard needs is a new capacitor in the place of the no longer existent old one. I am in no way a pro at putting small components on but I do know the basics of it.

On top of the capacitor it says 5ks14 560 4v I've tried searching the internet so i can buy one to try replace it but I can seem to find a capacitor the same or similar so I was either wondering if i could put some other capacitor on or try see if anyone knows where to buy the same capcitor...

I have tried it like that (with the side panel off) but I read somewhere else that if a hard drive is at one temperature all the time then it is probably just normal and won't affect the usability of the drive and won't affect speeds. But what do i know, or i wouldn't be asking on here about...

Would it be that hot because i have basically everything installed on that drive? just to add i did have a game open at the time also. The room that i have my pc isnt the coolest room in my house its a very small room, Also i did wonder why it was that hot because i do have 2 fans for intake on...

I have seen reviews of this and some people have said that their drives were failing, ive had mine for over a year now and its still very stable and fast https://gyazo.com/c503da395ec24a62d61b86eccc1b5dcc

Yes, i have requested a refund and i have just tried my 2x2gb pc2-6400u with a 2x1gb kit of just pc2-6400 and it seems it cant go to 800mhz but both are 6400 but it actually got to windows and i was able to play some games to test stability, it crashed once because of other reasons not really to...

I bought this ram at first and it came as pc2-6400u which is what i want and then because it worked fine i bought it again and received pc2-6400s I have now contacted seller about a refund, just got to play the waiting game on getting a response

I bought this motherbaord so i didnt have these problems because the motherboard supports up to 800mhz or pc2-6400 ram but when i get into windows it bluescreens with ERROR : MEMORY_MANAGEMENT and ive looked this up but cant find anything on why this ram and my motherboard aren't working...

yeah.... it seems to hard for me to flash bios to this mobo as it requres a floppy drive -_- like come on now its 2017 even dvd/cd are obsolete... the only way i know of flashing bios's are with a memory stick...

I know i didnt say this on my other posts but the board i tried the bsel mod on was a crappy foxconn mobo but i think i know how to do the bios thing. adn btw my budget isnt massive like (im from uk so £15) would probs be max. but i guess a better cpu would work better with my gtx 550 ti.
