Thanks. Will answer tomorrow as just about to go out the the evening.

That's the problem . . . I need a spec that will allow her to do the basics of internet (browsing, downloading), email, document editing via our wifi router (min 44 Mbsec) and so I was hoping to get something for around £500-£600 max.

Unfortunately, the 6 year old AIO packed in the other week. It's the 23.6" Maestro with an i7 quad core processor. It was my old PC before I gave it to my wife. After discussing options with PCS and realising that I'd need to spend money up front (as it's out of warranty) to send it back plus...

Many thanks for your reply. I'm thinking that because the on/off light doesn't stay lit up (but only blinks every few seconds when I hold the button on) then there's unlikely to be any lighting up within the PC itself. I guess I could take the back panel off and take a look, but otherwise, I'll...

Hello, The AIO that my wife now uses is not 'turning on'. I've checked the power lead and also plugged directly into the wall socket rather than athe surge protected extension. The only thing I can see is the light by the on/off button that blinks about every three seconds when I continuously...

Many thanks

I have the Fractal Focus G Black Gaming Case and two front USB ports and what seems to be 6 rear USB ports. Please can someone tell me what the different colours of USB port mean? I'm colour blind and can't easily identify the 3 different colours I have and what these mean. Thanks

Many thanks! I will do this. It's confusing for me to know that the other PC in the house (an AIO with basic wifi card) has no issues when mine brand new expensive PC is giving me grief! That's why I've assumed it must be the Intel WiFi Card (AX200).

Many thanks! I'll need to learn a bit more about inSSIDer as it's a new thing for me. Right now though, I have to get back painting the bedroom ! :-)

I'm currently connected to the 2.4Ghz band, Channel 6. I'm using inSSIDer to check. Of course, right now, everything has gone back to normal! When Tech Support were helping me initially a few weeks ago, we switched to the 5Ghz, but it made little or no difference. Intermittent issues are the...

Yes, antennae are fitted and pointed upright. Driver version 21.70.0.6 .

I received my new PC a few weeks ago and in all fairness, I'm well pleased with it. However, I did report within a few days that the Internet download and upload speeds were inconsistent and sometimes very slow, even though the PC sat right next to my new one was having no such problems. Tech...

Interesting that this should crop up as I've also received such an email. I'm also happy to wait and fully understand the order lead times and phases of build. Nevertheless, I noticed last Friday that mine entered the Pre-Production phase with a 7 working day duration (normally <1 week) and yet...

Thanks for your reply! Yes, I have a time limit and auto delete older backups. My problem is that if I decide to delete a whole load of images on my HDD, those same images will still exist in the backup. What you have shown me with SyncBack is that the backup can be configured using a mirror...

I've been using Windows 10 File History on my current PC for a couple of years and fortunately never had to recover data. I can see that the files/folders are being backed up automatically etc. When I delete files on my HDD it doesn't delete them from the File History, meaning that my File...

Thanks all for the input and advice! I did make a few changes as suggested although I stuck with the standard AMD Cooler which should be fine for what I'll be using the PC for. Final spec and order placed . . . . . Case FRACTAL FOCUS G BLACK GAMING CASE (Window) Processor (CPU) AMD Ryzen 7...

Many thanks for taking the time to respond and suggest a different spec. As far as the case is concerned, I chose what I did because it has an SD Card reader because that's how I currently copy my images on to the PC. I suppose I could just get a separate external SD card reader to connect via...

After some weeks, including changing my mind on even getting a new PC, I've finally got a spec that should easily meet my needs and max budget. The main use is for photography processing (Lightroom and Photoshop), the rest, just standard Internet stuff, word processing etc. I've not gone for a...

I think I've finally got over my original 'insistence' of getting another AIO! So I've come up with a spec based on Oussebon's first suggestion above . . . slightly amended . . . . Case CORSAIR CARBIDE SERIES™ 275Q QUIET CASE Processor (CPU) AMD Ryzen 7 3700X Eight Core CPU (3.6GHz-4.4GHz/36MB...
