    Regarding GOG - it is driving me mad how on my applemac no matter how many times i tell it not to open when desktop boots, it still comes on.

    Question BSOD

    THank you JCgames for this feedback. I actually want to turn OneDrive off. I don't have to access documents other than on my laptop so do you know how I turn this off?

    Question BSOD

    Hi everyone, So quick update - I rang ASUS and they got me to perform a reset on the laptop. I didn't realise doing this though meant me losing word docs not on onedrive and having to reinstall everything. She should have made me aware of that. What happened tonight was something different. I...

    Question BSOD

    Hi everyone, First of all, sincere apologies to Brian Boru and JCgames for not responding quickly. I read what you said and thought about it but there wasn't a pattern. I was getting codes like KMODE EXCEPTION NOT HANDLED and another one. I rang Asus and they talked me through resetting the...

    What was your best childhood GAME

    The monkey island series is up there but I remember loving Flight Of the Amazon Queen on my Amiga and I'm not sure what platform it was on but The Faery Tale Adventure, man I loved. I sometimes watch YouTube clips and the music still gets me now. I don't know if any of you remember BBC Micro...

    monopoly

    I can't believe that it only hit me last year when on holiday but I'm not a Monopoly fan but family/friends insist on playing it. I now deliberately buy every property I land on and go bust VERY quickly (then act all annoyed) meaning I can sip my G&T whilst the rest continue to waste their time...

    Quest 2 as an entry point into VR.

    I know the thread has gone a little off the OP but I appreciate all the responses on this. I wondered whether to delve into CP but if it's slightly less GTA than people think (and I haven't played ME) then maybe it's not yet for me.

    Question BSOD

    Hi everyone, I have had my ASUS laptop since the Summer and it keeps randomly crashing. It tells me the PC ran into a problem and needs to restart. I have Bitdefender AntiVirus PLus on and have performed a system scan which didn't show anything suspicious. It tells me that my wifi is weak but...

    Want to dip my toe into streaming/commentating

    Thanks for this DXCHASE, really appreciate it (and other contributors too!) Yeah I see the OBS stuff and I guess I need to dabble out of that; it's just that we have some pretty decent streamers in our channel and I don't know how to start. I almost need to see someone do it themselves from...

    What PC games do you play that are relaxing?

    Reading this thread has got me thinking I want to go and fish in Azeroth for an hour or two. :)

    Want to dip my toe into streaming/commentating

    Hello everyone, Hoping that I have posted this in the right section. I have recently joined an F1 2020 racing league (PC) on discord. They stream the races live with two commentators who stream and commentate on the race as events unfold (also record it so can watch it after). I want to get...

    F1 2020!

    Hi everyone, Totally late to this party so I hope that someone reads this! Been watching Tietermarduk YouTube videos for two days straight and contemplating buying it on steam. Question is, will it run on my spec (see signature) and also, what controller do you all use? Can I use a...

    I have a new gaming laptop. What housekeeping should I do to start?

    Hi Ousseon - it's the internal microphone and when I record myself it's fine. I just don't seem to hear people as loud as I like too. I'm pretty sure I have everything 100% sound but might it be something to do with a setting. On control panel on mic, when testing microphone, the blue line...
