    Constant BSODs 11.9-11.12 5770

    Not allowed to edit my post for what ever reason, however ive installed 12.1 preview drivers and chose not to install the CCC manager, no BSODS. Its highly possible that CCC was the direct cause of the BSODS. Im sure i remember disabling CCC from starting in MSconfig with 11.12 and the PC booted...

    New PSU (£)

    Yeah i was just looking at that one from ebuyer. I think im going to purchase it from there, as it comes to around £43, which is only slightly more expensive than scan.co.uk, and i trust ebuyer a lot more :)

    New PSU (£)

    80watt seems really low? Even under heavy load? Starcraft II is a massive resource whore in quite a few of the custom games.

    New PSU (£)

    GBP. I usually buy from ebuyer.co.uk, i bought the xfx hd 5770 from scan.co.uk, however im hesitant from buying from scan.co.uk as they have some awful reviews on their returns. But as long as the product works okay it should be fine. Mousemonkey, would the 400watt be enough for the 5770 and...

    New PSU (£)

    The other week i purchased a XFX HD 5770 1gb to replace my outdated 9500GT 1gb, shortly afterwards i realised the piece of crap psu i bought a couple years ago probably couldn't handle this. I updated for games Starcraft II and a few other future releases, however ive stopped playing games as i...

    Laptop sound driver

    Ive recently installed windows 7 onto a crappy old laptop(which did come with vista), although its under-spec, windows 7 is massively easier driver wise. One thing that is a problem is the side jacks don't work, while the laptop speakers do, Ive noticed realtek HD sound manager is missing, ive...

    CPU keeps hitting 100

    Thermal paste doesnt make a large difference, Not something that would cause massive overheating. Get a Temp monitoring program. Also remove the cpu heatsink again and replace it (to make sure its on properly)

    Strangely high memory usage

    To be honest, unless its affecting performance, ignore it. Bring up the task manager and look at the ram usage and cpu usage for the programs. Which processers are using a lot of ram? and how much are they using?
