Hi All I've been suffering from random BSOD's for a good while now (before I OC'd it, before you say anything :P) but they've recently gotten more and more common (1-3 in an evening), and it's getting a teensy bit annoying :P It started getting worse after I went from Vista to 7/XP in August...

Hi all, I'm having a problem that seems to be shared by many other users based on the number of forum threads i've come accross related to this topic. I'll describe it in some detail to avoid the usual advice which hasn't worked so far so please bear with me. I am unable to move files onto...

Hi there, I did a search on google and through these forums search function but all I can seem to find are topics about vista and backing up problems, and a few things about install problems. I did find a link to a microsoft hotfix for my problem, but it was only for specifically 4GB+ of Ram...
