  1. Man, you should've shut it hard to see what happened
  2. Dammit Bob, if I seemed offish towards you it's because I didn't click that you were THIS bob. I am a bit slow at the best of times. T'was nice meeting you and Charlie, he's a great kid. Great seeing Dave and the rest too. Dave suggested later that we get together sooner than next year and under different circumstances which I think is a great idea. Pity the Lee Evans gig is sold out, but if anyone's got any suggestions, I'm all ears. Eurogamer was ok. Last year felt better but that could be because it wasn't the first time, there weren't many triple A titles coming out and because I was considerably less drunk. It was probably just me as Kyla enjoyed it. My Razer Deathadder is lovely but I don't think it can top my M60. I'm sticking with it though, probably just need a bit of getting used to. Tommy > start saving dude, you're coming next year! That goes for all our Murican friends, get your arses down to London!
  3. Mkay, Rich and I are meeting in the AM somewhere near Earl's Court. Quick brekkie and go in. Spoke to him earlier and he's sick as a dog but like Stretch, wasn't going to sit with my whining if he didn't make it. Phil and his GF are meeting us at 1ish, at which point we'll go for a pint and then go in as his ticket starts from 2pm. Stretch is meeting us at 16:30-17:00. A year wasn't enough notice so he didn't get a ticket, but is coming for a drink afterwards and then staying at mine. I've also just bought a bottle of Jaegermeister and some Red Bull together with a case of beer, a case of cider and lots of snacks n shit in case we end up at here. Dave - what time are you intending on being there, and can you PM me your number please? Cheerio!
  4. Sounds to me like the motherboard's popped. Connect the exact same cable to your laptop and see if that works, if it does, it's the mobo. If it's borked, a cheapo adapter like this will work fine.
  5. That's cool Bob, we can look after him for a bit if you want to go in Looking forward to meeting you guys!
  6. Sucks Cal I'm even buying a new car to pick you lot up at Brixton after last year's break down. Can we get an attendance check please? So far I've got Stretch, Phil and probably his missus, Rich and probably not his missus, myself, Dave (Plumber), and maybe a couple of folks from another forum.
  7. Can't wait! My attendance here has been fairly sparse lately but I'm really looking forward to a good bash with you lot again.

    Do a clean install. Once these bugs and glitches start taking hold it becomes a mess which you simply transfer to your ssd.

    that's odd. Might be worth doing a clean install then. Exactly the same error?

    Ok, that Boot stuff is obviously languages / regions. How big is it? Put it this way, what exactly is on your SSD? Oh and confirmed that the Data drive is stuff for the SSD itself, leave it alone.

    I *think* that's part of your SSD which is reserved for the software on the SSD itself. It's only small, leave it. If it is that and you delete it, you could brick the drive.

    Huh? Did you clone the drive into a folder called boot?

    Samsung's software is great. First off, uninstall all the stuff you want to keep on your HDD, like your games library and anything that you don't need on your SSD. Run CCleaner and Malwarebytes, then defrag your drive. Then use Samsung's magic tool (wizard something iirc) to copy it all over, and once that's done change your Steam settings to install to your normal HDD. Games you play often however you can put on your SSD but don't go nuts. You know how it works. If you set a second folder, you can pick where you want the games to install from a drop down menu each time you install a game. Follow the instructions. That's what I did and it worked a treat. Samsung really put a lot of thought into their software / manual and it makes life much easier. Any questions, fire away
  15. Folks I have put the site on the backburner for a bit as I've been given a sniff of a promotion so work is currently my priority, and to be quite honest if I carried on trying to work on the site I'd be put in an insane asylum. As fun as coding is, it just drives me up the wall. I need to go on a proper course for it which I just don't have time for at the moment.

    Best Buy has the 120gb EVO for $79.99. Newegg is a tenner more, plus iirc you have a Best Buy local to you.

    Phil hit the nail on the head, however, Crucial recently released a range called the MX100 which have basically spanked all the Samsungs. You can get a 128gb model for $74.99 exactly. Great drives and until you spend quadruple the price, they are king of the benchmarks as well. Thing is, they're still new and are using new chips. The Samsungs have been king of the hill for a good two years now, so they're known to be bulletproof. These might be amazing, they might not. At the end of the day you might be getting something as reliable and better than the sammys, but you might also end up with a trailblazer that's burned out after a year. If I was in your shoes, Samsung. Odds are you won't notice the difference without benching software anyway. Best buy you'll ever have. Welcome to the SSD club

  19. If anyone wants to knock up a background for our blog, please hit me up.
  20. Well Jay, the answer to that has got so many sides it's unreal. Thew further I dig into this whole thing, the more I realise I need to dig further. What started out as optimizing some images, specifying image sized and rectifying some naughty code, has now got me looking at whether I should be on Apache or Nginx. I've basically gone from a forum admin to a hosting level admin and I'm probably still not there yet. To all of you who are saying that the site is slow, please can you tell me as much info as possible, so I can look deeper into this. I realise that this is taking a while but I promise that the end result is going to be night/day with how the forum is now. It'll still work exactly the same, look the same, feel the same, but it's going to be much faster. At least it better be, the amount of work going into it. I must admit that I am quite enjoying this, to the point of wondering if I'm in the right line of work, but then turning hobbies into careers usually results in people losing interest or flat out disliking the things they enjoy as it then becomes a job with deadlines.
  21. Oh and start with Euro Truck 2. Seriously. There are some fuckin' shit ones out there.
  22. That's cool. I'll pretend I don't see right through you. I hate it when you're wrong too
  23. Because you haven't tried them.
