Thanks, I can also confirm that cloning an ordinary HDD to an SSD, particularly in the case of samsung SSD's definitely works. We did this on our Win7 laptops when we wanted to get the ssd up and running and replacing them. The worst probs with laptops is access to the disks but we have done...

Thanks I thought as much but i realised today when checking my clones on both a exisiting desktop and our laptop that I needed to understand what setups i needed to move forward on newer systems. Many thanks for prompt response.

I'm trying to build a PC on PCS and usually use macrium weekly windows disk clones from SSD to disk on my current win 7 system and would like to do similar with a new windows PC. I wonder does anyone know if there are differences in disk layouts of M2 SSD and sata SSD that would cause issues...

thanks for the steer on the changes I like your ideas and thanks for the help on the save link. I've noticed that setting some options are a little odd in that they are apt to reset to default of their own accord but I've now taken to copying the items I want into a spreadsheet for...

Thanks for that I was in the process of looking at the Ryzen and I like the idea of 24 threads. That reconfigure url is useful is that an option I can use or is it only moderators can use it. I find it can take me longer than PCS saves my ideas for. I meant TPlink decos wifi- there are disks at...

Ok I've been checking out the Ryzen thingy to see if it makes any difference. So that may be an option ... I'm a peer to peer lender and I've been in Zopa for the best part of 10+ years so got lots of statement data to work with over the years and the sheets and their capabilities have got...

Thanks I wondered if that was the case. I'm intrigued by your last question regarding the Z370 as they were not on offer on the list of items. In reality I am trying to replace my current system with something that will last as long as this one has in terms of lifetime capability. I created my...

I've been creating a build for a new Pc and using * Configure a new PC (Build a Custom PC) * INTEL Based Custom PC | Configure * Configure (My budget is £440-£3000 The motherboard options has the defaulted item as Asus Prime Z390-P whcih is fine but the "?" help options do not have this board...

Hi Guys, As you can see below I have a rig that allows me to overclock if I want to, I tried it but didn't really offer me much extra at the time so I switched back to the default setups, i.e. no clocking. I have been investigating my system a bit recently and noticed that my memory 8GB...

Today I noticed that my CPU temperature, as measured by AI Suite had risen recently to 50c, not that high I know, but I was only pushing about 12% CPU on on an i7 2600k (overclock not activated). I closed chrome (I usually have in excess of 70 tabs in various screens open all the while) and it...

Sorry I tried this over in tech support but it didnt get any answers. re -read it and thought it might be better in the overclock section and changed the title as well. Right my shiny new PC has arrived and I am having a couple of issues with it and was just wondering. As it only came with a...

Right my shiny new PC has arrived and I am having a couple of issues with it and was just wondering. As it only came with a single profile and PCS have only provided the OC parameters details I was wondering the following. 1. Should they have provided the stock settings ( or are they just the...

I just got my shiny new PC yesterday and was just familiarising myself with it. I set up sleep functions in Win7 Power management and low and behold it switched off okay but never came back on. (see this thread...

I've just received my shiny new PC and all seems to be okay so far, but I have an annoying issue with the sleep functions at the moment. I turned on the hibernate functions and then selected the relevant sleep option. The PC went to sleep fine. I left it a couple of minutes ... However, it...

I just noticed that I've gone from "new member" to "member" wondered just what the criteria were for the different users types and mmore than that what they are. Sorry if its already been posted couldn't find anything to say this.
