    PCSPECIALIST Temperature Question

    I agree with a lot of what you said there @SpyderTracks but I'm not going to open this can of worms again. Just for the record though, I'm not 'pandering to Intel' because the same applies to AMD CPUs. I think we have to agree to disagree.

    PCSPECIALIST Blank screen & Bluescreen error

    I have the Sysnative download, thank you. From the one dump in there the problem is related to your audio card or its driver. The BSOD happened because a device (or its driver) did not complete a power transition in time (from low power idle state to full power running state). In the dump we...

    PCSPECIALIST PC needs restarting 3 times before it will display anything.

    Stop putting the stuff at its use by date right at the front then. We have to mess the shelves up trying to find the products with a use by date that will last until our next shop. You hide those puppies right at the back - so it's your fault. 😎

    PCSPECIALIST Paging file size

    This is going to be controversial and I know that some will not agree with me, but the logic behind what I've done makes sense and there are no negative impacts...... We all know that the paging file is part of virtual memory, RAM being the other part. Windows uses the paging file to store...
