    PCSPECIALIST, PCSPECIALIST BSOD Sub Forum in Tech Support

    I've recently been learning how to analyse BSODs, and while I've far from mastered it yet I can do the basics and have helped out a few people eliminate their problems so far. I was just wondering if a dedicated BSOD forum would be an idea on here in the Tech Support area? If I could help a few...

    PCSPECIALIST, PCSPECIALIST Basic PC for me Dad.

    My dad's old PCS machine is finally biting the bullet, I upgraded his XP Pro install to 7 Pro over the weekend but whenever Windows runs updates the thing ends up shutting down. I can't go round to troubleshoot for him as we virtually work opposite hours, and he's absolutely useless with...

    PCSPECIALIST, PCSPECIALIST Recommended Steam games for kids?

    My daughter is finally starting to bug me to play some games on her rig, so I'm going to install Steam for her so she can build up a small library. The trouble is I have no idea which games Steam have that are good for eight year old girls! If anybody could recommend any I'd be extremely...

    PCSPECIALIST, PCSPECIALIST To upgrade or not to upgrade?

    I've been toying with the idea of upgrading my PC for a while but can't seem to convince myself that anything needs upgrading. I've thought about every component individually but seem to find a reason not to do it, and they seem to be good ones. What do you think? RAM - Already have 8GB and the...

    PCSPECIALIST, PCSPECIALIST GeForce Experience problem

    Just wondering if any GeForce Experience users had been having any problems lately? I've had a problem with Experience for a while now but have only just realised the extent of it. It started when I tried to refresh my games list, Experience just sat there searching for hours and nothing...

    PCSPECIALIST, PCSPECIALIST Corsair HX850-80 Fan Noise

    My PSU has started to get pretty loud intermittently when gaming, the issue started about a couple of weeks ago. I installed some Windows updates and the new GeForce Experience release and it seemed to start after that. At first I thought it was the GPU fan, maybe something to do with the new...

    PCSPECIALIST, PCSPECIALIST Linking a gaming community site?

    I've just rehashed my Ning site, changing it from a comic collecting themed site to a PC gaming site. Just wondering if the admin/mods would let me know if I could link it in here? It is just a social network and offers no competition to PCS (although it could easily carry front page ads for...

    PCSPECIALIST, PCSPECIALIST Non PCS Laptop Problem

    I don't really like asking this in here as this is in regards to a non PCS laptop, but with the knowledge you lads have of laptops you were the first stop for me. I completely understand if no help is offered as of course this is nothing to do with PCS whatsoever. A bloke has asked for help...

    PCSPECIALIST, PCSPECIALIST Weird 'Ghost' Drive - Completely Stumped!

    Right, has anybody ever seen this before? I have no idea when it appeared as I don't expand my Disk Drives in Device Manager very often, but I'm pretty sure it's something I've done. The only USB drive I have installed on my PC is my Hitachi Touro Mobile USB 3.0 external HDD, and that's...

    PCSPECIALIST, PCSPECIALIST Homeland Season 3

    Anybody going to be watching? I've been really looking forward to this, probably as much as The Walking Dead Season 4. While Claire Danes' wide-eyed Bipolar stare can get annoying after the 60th time per episode it doesn't take away from the fact that the whole show so far has been absolutely...

    PCSPECIALIST, PCSPECIALIST FIFA 13 Has Stopped Working

    I've got this really annoying problem, funnily enough with Origin. I bought FIFA 13 last week in the Origin sale for about seven quid. I installed it last night but when I tried to run it I got a 'FIFA 13 stopped working' message through Windows about two seconds after the FIFA logo came up. I...

    PCSPECIALIST, PCSPECIALIST Hyperlink Text Colour

    Evening ladies and gents, maybe this is a bit of a strange request but is there any chance of changing the colour of text for imbedded hyperlinks? I'm very slightly colour blind and at the moment they just really don't stand out, maybe the PCS green or something a bit more vivid? Bring on the...

    PCSPECIALIST, PCSPECIALIST Weird Origin message. Account hacked?

    I've had this message a couple of times today from Origin, even though I've been logged in on my rig all morning. As a precaution I've changed my security settings and password, although I'm not sure if anybody else did manage to get access to my account or not. Anybody ever seen this?
