Thanks Kev, the wattage is not really the key other than the higher the better. Its the outputs. Ideally I need 4 x Molex, 4 x SATA plus the normal 20+4 mainboard connector and a 4 pin for the CPU. The 4 x Molex are for an MSI Twin Frozr graphics card which uses them all. At a push I could skip the ...

Yes similar, it's all in the overall wattage and the number and type of output connectors. The faulty one is a 650W job with a few more outputs than the one in your photo. Probably be easier if I popped up to have a look at some point.

Happy birthday Kev, It's easy to be 65. I'm fairly certain that time speeds up the older you get. I have no idea how I got to 72 so fast

That may be plan Wendy, thanks.

Thanks Kev, it needs to have a minimum of three SATA power connectors plus the multi-way for the mainboard and a separate 4 pin CPU feed. Our Jack hasn't got back to me yet, he may have a spare.

I am toiling with an PC upgrade problem. Our Desktops SDD boot drive is full so I ordered one four times as big. First problem, not enough SATA power connectors to connect the new drive into the system. I intend to clone the drive directly, I have the software loaded on an additional drive in the ma...

I had to switch to Al Jazeera News to get anything other than the constant speculation about AMW. No need to repeat everything ten times over.

Who was the folk singer that moved onto a canal boat? Can’t remember her name.

That would be Heather, (Calluna), she's at the same gym as me. She's a Graphic Designer by trade but plays guitar and sings a bit as a hobby.

She and her partner Elaine are back in "normal" housing now.

Tin Opener?

Morphed into the GMB, Barlick Labour Party HQ through the late 70's and into the 80's and 90's. I had our lithograph printer in the no longer used board room, the big mahogany board table was ideal for knocking 5,000 sheets of A4 up ready for the printer. That was in the space that is now the right ...

Happy Birthday Stanley.

Your first post on this platform was: by Gloria Mon Jan 23, 2012 1:05 pm Forum: Introductions Topic: Hi, I'm Doc - Site Administrator From your post it does seem you were on the previous platform before it crashed. It's hit and miss finding posts if you were on the old site which I am fairly certain...

Also from a bloke who lives abroad to avoid paying UK tax.

Back down to the real world, 150Kg on the push/pull sled today. we have a new programme for the class and all the weights are up. Bike, RDL with 25Kg, Hip thrust with 50Kg sandbag on your lap. Bench biceps lift with two 8Kg dumbbells, plank from the wobbly dome for your hands, body weight pull up wi...

Not sure of the date so I went looking on the archive site for clues. Earliest accessible post (as the mirror taken is corrupted) was 2007 but I think it was some time before that as I had over 2000 posts in Feb 2007. I could have been not long after the old site went live which would be 2004. I thi...

It was the college that made me redundant. I could probably have gone for constructive dismissal as the criteria was that my job position was no longer required. I added it up and I had 37 different roles and responsibilities. My severance redundancy payment allowed me to pay of the remainder of our...

My self employment went pear shaped when my landlord sold the building for redevelopment without telling me. I saw an advert in the paper for an IT job at St Theodores (Teds) on Ormerod Road in Burnley. Got the job from 12 applicants whittled down to three. Three months later I was Network Manager a...

Not seen but heard on the news on the morning radio. Apparently the government have decided to fast track apprenticeships. They are reducing the time served to be qualified to 3 MONTHS! In my book this begs the question as qualified to do what? I cannot think of any trade that you could learn compet...

We watch The Chase frequently and they quite often have contestants whose names make others when they are lined up.

I was gifted a new book at Christmas, a Sunday Times Best Seller. "Bletchley Park Brainteasers" over 100 puzzles, riddles and enigmas inspired by the greatest minds of World War II. It has a byline at the bottom of the front cover, "Would Bletchley Park have recruited YOU?" The f...

A long time ago when I was about 17 and camping in the woods at Bowness we met an American lass who was 22 years old. She was amazed that we were allowed to do this at our tender age. She came across as a very sheltered individual and very naive despite a five year gap in our ages.

Saw one on the news today witch apparently shows Peter Mandelson in his Y fronts with a woman.

I used to mend Mary's TV, she lived in Salterforth in one of the houses on the left of Earby Road before the former railway bridge.

Yes electric was off most of the day and was still off at 6pm in our shop on Ellis Street. I think it is the guys working on the paving at Post Office Buildings that did the deed.
