I sent my home pc into our local computer shop to be upgraded, fine I thought, and it was a treat for my b/d. Anyway, my old man dropped it in this morning and they knew nothing about it I ring them up and they say it is in a cue and will be done probably next monday I told them I need it in and out the same day as can't be without PF for the evening let alone 4! It turns out the guy I spoke to is conveniently off today so I went mad saying how it don't take time to do a cpu and ram upgrade, I work in IT FFS! Anyway, they put me to the front of the queue and it will be done by the end of the day (providing the dick doesn't wipe my hard drive)

Wish I had of just done it all myself now....ahh well

 

would of beeb cheaper and easier to do it yourself lad, could of at least don the ram?

 

next monday it takes me <1hr to build up an entire PC from scratch, including a fag break, making the tea, etc. etc.

 

if you have windows xp you will need to reinstall it after a major hardware change as it will not like it.

so your hard drive will need to be wiped anyway.

cant believe your actually paying for someone to do that tho

 

chip n ram swap should be ok

and crain, XP is a lot easier to get away with hardware changes than the oldies like NT4 or win95

 

Nah, you can make several major hardware changes before it complains, and even then if you've got a legit copy u just gotta call the help line to re-activate it.

CPU and memory no problem at all! No drivers for that at all.

Craig, He mentioned this, I don't have XP, it is 2K. But he said I may still encounter a blue screen I don't have my H/D backed up, and it is unlikely they are going to ghost a copy onto a spare disc "incase" of the inevitble What can I do? I have told them what will happen if they lose it.....

 

shold have got someone on here to do it wich reminds me, jimmmmmmmmmmmm hard drive info please

 

what exactly are they upgrading

 

Initially it was ram and cpu, but now they have found that the cpu wont go on my old board as it will be over the boards limit so I have to have a board as well, fair enough.

F'off u prat!

 

please reply to my first pm

sorry adam

 

 

now they have found out?

how can you just "find out" something like that surely you check the fookin thing 1st

with a new mobo its best to reinstall windows

 

Agree with jim i can build up a computers hardware in about 5 - 10 mins nothing to it screwing a few bits in a box. then leave XP to setup and install M/B drivers sorted.

I work with computers every day. never heard anything like it MONDAY thats bull shit.

 

Yea, I dunno, they sid it would be ok, and the mobo manual is less than helpful really. Think it was a case of them sayin it would work on a chip speed they quoted me, then realising it wont take it (think my old mobo limit is 2GHz) and chip is 2.4GHz. I said, bollox, I wan't it done and need it back today so just do it, I don't care I ain't paying

P.S: reinstalling windows is fine, well, they don't have my software, but then again I was expecting a new board So, dunno wot will happen there

 

it is best to reinstall windows but i dont think that stops you from putting a new motherboard in and loading the M/B drivers may send it screwy but dont think you would lose your data

 

Guys in shop sound a bit thick to be honest
If you think a couple of days turnaround is bad, you should hear some of the horror stories I hear about PC World
3 WEEKS to fit a new hard disk

 

Let's hope not, all my bloody pics of my cars and stuff, all my mail and settings, all my music and stuff I work with, can't be losing it. They are a computer shop, if they have sense they would ghost my disk to another to be safe u would think.

I can't see how the drivers being reinstalled can screw it about, it is fully upto date with all patches and virus dat files. we will see.

 

get the computer back off of them.

sent it to me via courier (circa 4.50) with the new bits and a cheque for Ł4.50 to cover the return postage

i'll have it done and back with the courier same day for you, and i'll do it properly too.

 

LOL Jim, well they are doing it now. Plus not charging labour, just parts probably because I kicked up and everything (rightly so) so they can do it, if I go there tonight and it has all gone tit's up then they are in for it

 

Want a job Jim?

 

I worked for PCSC the after sales support team for dixons group(pc world dixons currys) in my first job, i could tell you some stories.

a women sends her laptop in for repair and 1 year later rings up to find out how the repairs going WILD

 

alan, what you need doin... i'm happy to do this kinda stuff for peeps (except b19bal coz its ammusing watching him squirm... lol)

ps ginge im not replying to your PM as i cant adequately describe the procedure via PM for your harddisk stuff, there are too many "what ifs" to put in there... need to do it over the phone

 

If there putting in new motherboard thats a bit more serious and I'd go for a new Windows install too.
Motherboard usually incorporates disk controllers, sound card, USB sockets, ports, maybe even network card and modem etc so there's quite a few drivers to make 'em work right.

If they do have to re-install windows you'd not lose any MP3s, vids or piccys though. that shouldn't be touched.

steve

 

lol

i fix laptops mainly, i have to travel to the laptop

i assuemd from the beginning it was having a mobo swap thats why i said reinstall os

you seem to know about norton ghost etc

why are you not buying the bits and doing it yourself???????

 

UPGRADE !!!!

who the fook does an upgrade of an os

worst idea ever

format -> reinstall allways !

 

Yes, we use it at work. Why am I not, well as I said was for my b/d so couldn't be doing with ordering bits and then sorting paying for it, plus time and wanted it done in one day....

I 'thought' I'd be best taking it to the shop who I originally bought the system off and all should be ok etc.....im hoping this wont turn nasty

But as I said earlier, wish I had of done it myself now

 

Eh?

 

crain, i'll upgrade if im feeling a bit lazy and cant be arsed to spend an hour setting it all back up again

 

***UPDATE***

Just rung the shop as they shut in half hour He said all has gone well just installing a couple more drivers, no blue screens of death as yet! Will be collecting shortly with a bit o luck

 

Cool got it sorted and picked up tonight, now running over double the CPU speed and double the RAM Oh and a better mobo, no re-installing the OS or loosing my H/D Now just need to upgrade my graphics card and get my BB then im there

 

nice one chap faster faster

 

Yup

Question, what sort of cpu and system temps should I be seeing?

I have noticed the fans are pushin out more air probs cos of the bigger fan on the bigger cpu I am currently seeing around 42 degess C on the CPU temp and about 30 degrees C on the system temp...that sound ok?

Cheers

 

I'm wanting to upgrade my computer, 'tis very slow
Well, used to it I suppose, just want things faster LOL

 

Well they say PC's suit there operators

 

 

Anyone know RE: temps?

 

:UP: For Jim
