    PCSPECIALIST Sometimes PC won't boot unless I press reset or force power off

    In last few months (maybe only since fall creators installed but that may just be co incidence) I have had issues when switching my desktop on. It’s happened about 3 or 4 times where it goes past post and then nothing happens. I’m still stuck staring at the ASUS logo on the loading screen but...

    PCSPECIALIST Cosmos IV issues with MS account usage

    PCSPECIALIST Bluray Rewriter drive so slow to kick into action

    I have an LG bluray drive in my system received yesterday. Whilst it seems to work fine and burn etc. It takes a long time to get going. I'll put a cd or dvd in and it can take 30 secs to a minute for autoplay or launch. Is this a windows 10 glitch (being not mature OS and all). Just seems...
