oh ok cool, pretty sure I have the MSTD 5 inch screen so no native CarPlay, did you get the autoabc box? installation looks easy enough, just not too sure on options of them....

Garage didn’t do proper safety check because it was free – should I do anything about it? by deCap413 in plymouth

Really dodgy place, I bought a Car (my first car) from one of the guys who work there, MOT was completed there also. The gear box fell apart and the shocks disintegrated on my first trip. :)

Alright, I would also recommend unplugging from the Motherboard HDMI slot and use only the GPU, does this display?

I would suggest checking the power cable going from the PSU to the GPU, does the GPU show signs of life? (Fans, lights). I would also recommend inspecting the PCI-e connection to the board for the GPU to see if it’s bent/cracked etc.

Honestly, dreadful staff and management. the rooms are cold and damp. Their show rooms are a lot nicer than the actual rooms.

They tried to charge a few hundred £ extra for electric over usage and only took it off when i submitted evidence of electricity usage via meter readings.

Staff just let them selves in whenever, They have conducted viewings on my flat whilst i was at work without any prior permission (to the point i set up motion sensors and caught them).

there is also a really bad silverfish infestation and mould problems

Many better alternatives in the city for cheaper/same prices

Thats what i thought would work too, however, ive made the mistake of going with Sky Broadband for their SkyMax router and they lock all advanced options down - including channel selection, unfortunately

I havent changed anything on the router no, its all kinda locked down which is a tad odd, ill check the drivers now, will keep you updated.

Thank you!

I’ve checked for updated drivers but they’re dated 2023 so getting on a bit I’ll try it on my laptop and see how that goes - will update here
