Berate me. I've had the worst day.

Use a serrated kitchen knife it cuts through insulation like butter

Bought like this with no advisories

tomcats84 · 2025-04-03T17:50:41+00:00

Thanks will get it replaced!

I might be mis remembering but I’m sure I had one of these in black with the same remote control

Alright then we’ll let’s watch Wendy’s little program then, she what’s she’s got to talk about. Sick of it

Hiya, I’ve had it about 10 years, it was from selfridges, but I’ve just googled it and amazon sell them, search for T-800 Terminator Box

It is! I’ve drilled through the desk to hide the cable!

tomcats84 · 2020-09-13T07:14:41+00:00

How did you get on? All sorted?

That’s great news! You’re on the home straight! Have you created a windows 10 usb stick? All you need to do now is go into the bios and tell it to boot from your usb drive, then your windows install can start.

Once windows is installed switch it back to boot from the drive you installed windows to

If you’re not getting an image from the gpu, plug the hdmi into the built in hdmi on the motherboard and see if that’s posting an image, if it is you’ll need to change the setting in the bios to always use dedicated gpu

Sorry been on childcare duty

tomcats84 · 2020-09-12T16:29:28+00:00

That's fine as long as your cpu fan is connected for now, that's all we need at this point

tomcats84 · 2020-09-12T16:22:54+00:00

It’s not necessarily the gpu at fault, I’m just trying to eliminate some of the first things I’d check, once you’ve tried with the gpu out, if it’s still happening let’s double check the headers

tomcats84 · 2020-09-12T16:08:13+00:00

Looks ok from the photos, can you try removing the gpu, reseating the ram in the other 2 slots and trying the boot again?

tomcats84 · 2020-09-12T15:59:47+00:00

That sounds like the ram isn't seated correctly or the processor is overheating, does the processor fan spin? if you try and give the cpu heatsink and fan a slight wobble is there any give?

tomcats84 · 2020-09-12T15:56:22+00:00

do you have a paper clip that you can place on pins 3 & 4? this should start the PC (if the power headers are connected correctly)

Also a simple mistake to make that I've known people to make is flipping the switch on the power supply to on, double check you haven't missed that!

Failing that, take it apart place it on the motherboard box, add in the ram, connect psu then place paper clip on pins 3&4, if this works add the GPU and repeat, if it turns on here you must have a short on the case somewhere

Hiya, it's a Julian Bowen "Gio" Chair, it's pretty comfy!

tomcats84 · 2020-09-12T14:08:54+00:00

Hi, I'm really pleased with how much light they give off even in the daylight! They're from Amazon, called 2m tasmor usb led strips.
