Thanks for the replies and advice. The reason I opted for two drives was to have a backup for all my data - I've been burned in the past!! They were supposed to be both 3TB - I must have misclicked. Does anyone know which brand of Hard Drive is considered the most reliable? That's more...

I'm having a problem with the touchpad on my laptop. I'm running Windows 10 and every time I restart the computer, the touchpad resets to its default settings (meaning it's EXTREMELY sensitive!). I've googled the problem and the general recommendation is to update the driver. However, its...

In a nutshell, I'm looking to spend around £1200 to £1500 for a machine that will: 1. Do the normal day-to-day stuff well and fast. 2. Play games to a reasonable (but not "super optimized") level. 3. Have bags of storage. 4. Be as small as possible (bearing in mind the above). 5...

My graphics card has become a little....difficult. It's an Nvidia GTX 760 which is almost five years old. Essentially, I lose video completely from time to time. Whereupon I open the case up, take it out and reseat it and it works fine....until the next time. For my needs, I'm perfectly...

Am I missing something, or do none of the "buy it now" laptops come with a built in DVD player? Are they deemed a "thing of the past"?! Thanks for any help.

What happens is this: At times, my SSD becomes recognized as a 'new' disk. The problem is that the drive letter of my physical hard drive then gets changed from F: to G: and, hence, none of my programs will work until I go into Computer Management and change the drive letter back (having...

Just got a new PC from PCS and for the third time it's shut down (always while playing a game). It reboots and I get a message: "Power supply surges detected during the previous power on. ASUS anti-surge was triggered to protect system from unstable power supply unit!" (The exclamation mark...

Basically, I want to use this machine for "a bit of everything". I don't expect to be able to run demanding games at ultra settings but I would like it to be fairly "future-proof", quick(ish) and, well, generally "OK". Anyway, here it is, please do let me know if you see any glaring mistakes...
