    AMD dual Core - Temperatures

    Its called cost versus acceptable risk assessment, you can exceed the recommended max operating temperature on cpu by some margin. Its what you do with the heat once its outside the core and is inside your enclosure that counts. You can remove heat from the core and reduce the core by x degrees...

    AMD dual Core - Temperatures

    Didnt see it was a X2 S-AM2 ;) Done worse, my X2 overclocks were consistently over 73 degrees as it was a cheap enough processor to not worry if you reduced its life by a few years, bet youve done the same :) Quite a low max temp for a processor really, given that you'd be expected to...

    Boot up problem

    No, they don't recharge Im guessing if you switch power off and remove the power lead for 30 seconds that youll find the same problem, the motherboard has capacitors onboard which store a charge so a quick loss of power and power on wont show the issue.

    AMD dual Core - Temperatures

    Most AMD have a Max Operating Temp of 90-100 degrees celsius, hell even the Duron had that range. But yes for longevity you want to bring the temperature down as much as possible.

    External Hard Drive

    Its not a seagate barracuda 7200.11 drive is it? If you give the name of the external drive make and model if you dont know whats inside the casing then we can probably work it out.

    Laptop for Photoshop

    Better RAM, better HD. Less processor but you prob wont see the difference with elements, if you upgrade to PS CS5.5 you'd probably only notice a small increase with the i3 and a moderate increase with the i5. I'd say go with the Acer.

    Updates over wireless router

    not a problem using wiif [b]but[/b for any router updates (ie updates to the router firmware), you should always use a wired connection. This may be where the confusion is arising.

    Laptop for Photoshop

    64bit processors have been developed to allow operating systems such as windows to allow access to more than 4GB of RAM. 32bit limits you to 4GB so anything over this is not seen by the OS. So if you have a 64 bit processor (and virtually all are these days, then getting a 64bit version of...

    Error#1065

    The message is a flowplayer message which basically displays flash (as in adobe flash) images. This error was fixed quite a while ago and even if the site you are viewing has an older version then there is some workarounds. Do you have an example that you could post? If not (I'll...

    samsung galaxy 5 mobile phone

    Do you mean expensive in terms of cost (in which case no, use wifi free hotspots) or terms of battery (in which case its about average, if you hammer the wifi connection, especially if its with a low signal, then you'll get about 12 hours). It uses android 2.2 and has a/b/g/n so not a bad...

    Laptop for Photoshop

    Which version of PS do you use? Personally I'd plump for a i5 or i7 for photoshop work, especially on a laptop which is going to suffer because unless you have a firewire external drive or similar then your scratch disk is going to be on the same as windows/ps. But then a i5 will be £100 more...

    Netgear router keeps changing LAN IPs

    Having googled netgear address reservations then it does appear to be known problems, mostly with older firmware/chipset revisions. That or people use the wired ethernet mac instead of the wifi mac for reservation. So apologies to both you and EFC :)
