    PCSPECIALIST PC beeping on startup + other issues

    Let PCS know, they will send a replacement - though if your manager ordered it they will have to contact PCS about it rather than you I know various ASUS motherboards do this as well, if it is the same thing there is absolutely nothing wrong with the motherboard - it is a "feature" (an annoying...

    PCSPECIALIST Reciept

    You can download the invoice from your PCS account if that's what you mean, but as far as I remember you do not get a paper version when the PC arrive

    PCSPECIALIST I don't like the offered configuration options for laptops

    Yes, yes, prices have gone completely nuts :( As Steaky says we cant provide any suggestions except for PCSpecialist builds here but you could always give PCSpecialist a call and ask if they can do anything for you with your RAID-1 requirements in a laptop.

    PCSPECIALIST Is this a good build for gaming?

    What sort of games was your friend hoping to play and at with what sort of monitor (ie resolution and refresh rate or make/model)? Do note though that due to the current costs of PC components, £1000 will just not get you a "good" PC unfortunately :( A few people may be able to spec something...

    PCSPECIALIST come posso conoscere le specifiche di alimentazione delle porte sulla funziona power delivery? devo alimentare uno scanner medicale dentale.

There are the Italian forums here though https://www.pcspecialist.it/ if you wish to write in Italian :) From Google translate: Ciao @FilStr, questi sono i forum inglesi...

    PCSPECIALIST PC Shut down on 90% of startups.

    However even though it will get hot and various things could've been changed before ordering in the first place - it should just throttle, it shouldn't be overheating on bootup - it would suggest something is actually wrong rather than just different cooling solutions - even though different...

    PCSPECIALIST Extreme high memory usage after installing 14Tb HDD

    Hmmm, this is the strange bit: Something has gone a bit funny here (my paged pool is 621MB). Hopefully someone can shed some light as to what's happened here

    PCSPECIALIST Extreme high memory usage after installing 14Tb HDD

    Also how much RAM is your PC supposed to have?

    PCSPECIALIST Extreme high memory usage after installing 14Tb HDD

    Would help if you would show that whole window rather than just the total, and order it by memory usage so we can see what is using said memory. Edit: oops, Scott beat me to that comment by a few seconds :)

    PCSPECIALIST I bought office with my desktop and now its gone :(

    I suspect the update you did about a week ago probably "updated" it from your old version to the new Microsoft 365 version of office - or you were just on a Office 365 trial instead of the 'keyed' version and said trial has now run out If you check your PCS account it may well have the key to...

    PCSPECIALIST Windows features missing how do I get back?

    Yeah this very much looks like the problem that was in the thread I linked where in the end a full clean reinstall was needed (just as Spydertracks said above)

    PCSPECIALIST Windows features missing how do I get back?

    I remember hearing about this problem a while back, I think there was a problem with the images being used for the installs for a bit (cant remember the timeframe though). I believe a Windows clean install fixes it - though obviously this would mean you'd have to save anything important...

    PCSPECIALIST which case should I get?

    If you have already received it then generally any changes/upgrades through them need to be done through the upgrade system (where you can send it in (for a fee) or add the new component yourself) and they do not do case changes through the upgrade system as it would involve taking the whole...

    PCSPECIALIST 0d error while turning on PC

    Were there any beeps when you started up the PC, if so how many and were they long or short beeps and in what order (eg. 1 long followed by 3 beeps is one example it could be) - if its more than one beep then its an error code and it can help point in the right direction for troubleshooting
