Still regularly using a Breville electric knife bought in 1990, a 1993 National stereo (used in garage for the radio), a 1994 portable "ghetto blaster" stereo system, 1996 Sony walkman for old...

Thanks, thats really helpful. I'll download Free Office and have a look.

I wasn't aware you could have a MS account just for email that wasn't tied to Windows so thanks for that.

Thanks, yes I read your excellent post which convinced me to just use a local account when installing Win10 on my new build.

OpenOffice used to be the standard replacement for MS Office, is that not recommended now?

Just wondering how many people have a Microsoft account? I don't and would prefer not to but Windows 10 really really wants me to. I don't use OneNote, Cortana or any of the programs/apps that...

Just thought I would update this thread to say that the new PC works extremely well with the integrated graphics without a graphics card. It is lightening fast, including when using Google Maps and...

Thats good to know, thanks.

Assuming your documents are Word I think you need to turn off automatic hyperlinks. Try this page to see if it helps.

I should probably start a new thread but with regards to getting Windows 10 Home, I'm wondering why its ~$10 cheaper to get a copy on DVD rather than USB? Am I missing something or is one more...

Thanks for all the replies, very helpful. Since I don't see the need to replace the current monitor at this time its good to know that the integrated graphics will be sufficient for now and I can add...

I am researching parts for a new PC and have decided on an Intel Comet Lake Core i5 10400 with integrated graphics on an ASUS PRIME H410M-A MATX motherboard with an integrated graphics processor....

Thanks everyone for your replies. I had a look and tried what ManUFan suggested and that did the trick perfectly, easy as. Will take note of the other suggestions for possible future use. Cheers!!

Hi all,
I took a few videos on my iPhone this weekend and, being in a hurry to capture the scene, did not zoom in sufficiently in a couple of them so the subject is too far in the background. It...

I'm looking at getting a new printer and was considering a laser until I came across this thread. I don't do regular daily or weekly printing so every time my inkjet printer is switched on it feeds...

Hi all, just to provide an update to the situation, replacing the fan made little difference, the machine is still noisy. If a new fan hasn't fixed is it possibly the hard drive that is making the...

I have the same issue on an HP netbook (mini laptop). It came with Windows 7 and upgraded itself to Windows 10 - big mistake. Mine has 4GB RAM, has no crap on it or unnecessary start ups and its...

Thanks all for the helpful replies. I can get the fan out so I'll check it again to see if it can be oiled but I'll look at wainuitech's suggestions first. From the sound of it I suspect that the...

Hi all,

I have an HP netbook that is around six years old and a couple of years ago it was almost drowned when I tipped a glass of water over the table. After drying it out it booted up fine and...

Perhaps GIMP or another of these suggested programs might do the job:

Yes, I can open and view the conversations in Firefox and a text editor but neither are pretty. The JSON file doesn't convert to HTML very well and certainly doesn't look like the Facebook HTML...

No, you have to have a Facebook account, not just a Messenger account. My Messenger account is accessed by my phone number and password, not with an email address which Facebook requires.

As in my...

Good afternoon,

I am wanting to download my Messenger conversations to keep as a record but Messenger won't give me the option to save as an HTML file, only JSON which is not what I want. Please...

Thanks for your helpful reply - yes, that is exactly the effect that I am seeking and what I get when the screws have been tightened.



That's a good tip, I normally use two hands but may have...
