This is the other video. I will try this but I don't have high hopes! :)

That is the exact way I sync'd my own a few years ago. That is what I am trying and it hasn't worked. There is another video doing the rounds in which the man only presses the LOCK button three times and doesn't bother holding down the UNLOCK button at all. I must try that next, but I am still...

Thanks for the reply. But alll that they will do is tell me to bring it in and I'll end up paying 90 quid for a simple job. :(

Hi, it's been a few years since I've been on here. I got caught up with lots of work and didn't have time for online things. But who knows, maybe things will slow down for me now! Anyway, the problem; Seat Ibiza car, belongs to my sister in law. Her key fob wouldn't unlock or lock the car and...

It's only about 2 years old. 3 at the most.

I have one of those fleece dreamland electric blankets. It's a double size and there are two plug/power supplies, one for each side. One side has failed. So I checked the power cable from the failed side, in the good side and it was fine. I then checked the power cable from the good side in the...

I have an Iomega 1.5TB USB External Hard Disk Drive. LDHD-UP2 is the number listed on the enclosure. It is a 3.5 inch drive with a power supply. It has been running well for a few years. Today I plugged it in, and got the sound notification for a USB device, but the (white)light on the unit...

I have a HP Pavilion P6 Desktop PC. It was running windows 8 and just before Christmas I updated to Windows 10. I'm regretting it now mind you. However, all was well until Friday. Windows update ran and restarted my PC. My wireless adapters haven't worked since. They WERE still listed in...

Thanks Monkeh. I did change the thermal paste, and the problem persisted but the laptop was most certainly running cooler. I took the bottom casing off the laptop and scrubbed it with a toothbrush and cleaned out any trace of dust. It has been running fine ever since the cleanout.

UPDATE: I tried a new RAM stick and the laptop still powered off after about 25 minutes. I tried a new Power supply and even a new battery and still nothing solves the problem? I even tried running the diagnostic test, and it always powers off around 2 minutes into the CPU test, after...

Dell Latitude E6410. Intel i5 Processor. 8GB RAM. Windows 7 Ultimate. Recently dropped the laptop. Hard drive then failed. Replaced the Hard drive and reinstalled Windows 7 Ultimate. Now the Laptop refuses to run windows update.I soldiered on anyway as it was working fine. Worked fine for...

I've stayed well clear of windows 10 myself and I'm generally very good with issues on windows machines. But this being a windows 10 issue has me slow to find a solution. This one is strange though. She had it 'anchored' in her main menu under the name photos. And the photos anchor is 'low...

So a friend of mine upgraded from windows 8 to windows 10 about 6 months ago. However, she cannot find several of her photos which had been on her Windows 8. They weren't all in the my images or my pictures folder either. They were in their own individually named folders. It's a HP Desktop PC...

Well, here is my motherboard. Looks like it's a video chip and so much more complicated, right? Think I need to bite the bullet here. Bew Motherboard or a new laptop. Thanks guys. Thoughts would still be appreciated.

Ok. That's good news, I guess. :)

The Graphics are AMD Radeon HD 6450M. I know they are dedicated graphics but I don't know if they're part of the board or removable? Anyone know for sure before I go and open the thing up? This computer runs with an Intel Core i5 2410M Processor.

It's a Toshiba Satellite Pro Terca R850-143 It does have dedicated graphics but I think it's a video chip on the motherboard? I'm not 100% sure though. The LCD won't work in any form, the old video cable was badly frayed around the plug to the LCD, as is the socket on the LCD itself, but I have...

Well actually, I can hear the windows 'chime' after it loads up. That's how I know. Sound. :)

Thanks for the reply. So if it's the GPU, I need a new motherboard? Wow. That's a real shame because everything else is working just fine. I mean windows loads up fine?

Ok, so a few more things have been tried. Connected to a TV using a VGA cable. Still no picture. Replaced the RAM. Didn't solve the problem. I have also tried the power draining idea. Remove battery and power cable, hold the power button down for 2 minutes, then refit all and power up. No...
