    PCSPECIALIST, PCSPECIALIST Building a photography editing PC...any ideas if this is OK?

    Thank you so much, I really appreciate your advice and you giving your time up to come up with that configuration. The tower with multiple bays is a great idea, i have a slew of external drives at the moment which take up a lot space. So the 2 storage drives, and a fast 'current work' drive +...

    2.5k is at the top of what I'd like to spend, but it's for work and a necessity so I'm open to advice and could increase the budget slightly.

    PCSPECIALIST, PCSPECIALIST Shooting tethered, Nikon D810 suddenly not recognised by laptop......

    No, it came with windows, I found a way of reinstalling the OS without removing my work files. I've now got a live call booked for tomorrow with PCS instead of an RMA, hopefully they can see what's going on remotely.

    PCSPECIALIST, PCSPECIALIST Shooting tethered, Nikon D810 suddenly not recognised by laptop......

    This is the thing, what could possibly have changed mid-shoot with nothing connected to wifi? If its' the camera how does it still work and connect my desktop? If it's the laptop how can i connect other cameras to it with no problem? PCS sent me links to download the chipset drivers, I used the...

    PCSPECIALIST, PCSPECIALIST Shooting tethered, Nikon D810 suddenly not recognised by laptop......

    Thanks but I've tried several cables including the Nikon supplied one. All of the cables I have work when connecting my other camera (Nikon D800). The Nikon D810 connects with no problem to another latop I have plus my desktop computer, it's just this particular laptop that is the problem! To...

    No not at all. When it first happened there was an error message 'this usb device has malfunctioned' which appeared, but even that doesn't happen now. Looks like I'm sending it back to PCSpecialist so they can have a look at it.

    Thanks for the quick reply! In device manager the USB Root Hubs were greyed out so I uninstalled them then restarted the computer, they came back but it's still not connecting. Does the fact that they were grey point to a fault? Can you talk me through how to run a command prompt of the...

    Hi All, I've been shooting tethered through Cap One with no issues for 3 months when suddenly in the middle of a shoot my Nikon D810 disconnected from the laptop and has not been able to reconnect (despite 3 weeks of tech support from both Nikon and Capture One). After extensive testing of the...

    PCSPECIALIST, PCSPECIALIST Cluelessly selecting options until my budget has run out for photo editing laptop.

    Hi, I've configured a laptop which I'll be mostly using for shooting tethered running Capture One, and also lightroom/photoshop for post processing. I need something that can deal with very large RAW files very quickly, any suggestions or help would be very much appreciated. Do I actually...
