I would agree that the page fault message is a strong indicator of a RAM issue - but you seem to have covered that off. Another possibility is that there is a problem with your hard disk - the page file sits on there. You could try resizing / reallocating / moving that to see if it makes any...

I'd email him and leave another voicemail stating something like "I'll be commencing proceedings in the small claims court in seven days blah blah ... I appreciate that judgement against you will severely impact your ability to get any credit or mortgage in future, but you are leaving me with...

I've serviced my own cars for 30 years (oil / plugs / brakes etc) but let garages do it now. I lost interest when I last serviced my daugher's Ka for the first time. Took me a while to find the oil filter (mounted on the rear of the engine block, only accessible from under the car) - needed...

It will depend on the completeness and timing of your other backups. Example: Your normal backups take place daily at 5pm. At 7pm, you post process 50 photos. The next morning, you write 30 pages of your new novel in Word. Then update some important spreadsheets for your business (you are a...

Indeed, as per posts #5 and #11 above. :-)

See what you're saying. The businesses I work with are quite large and their PC data drives are always on a SAN or NAS, RAID protected. Or the PCs themselves are virtualised........

You might thank him one day ! Just about all businesses run their computers with RAID protected disks. It's normal !

The benefit is that, if your primary hard drive suffers a hardware failure, then your secondary drive will take over - otherwise you would have lost everything on the drive (and then had to restore from other backups etc that you should have). You then have a windown of opportunity to go and...

If you fill the primary drive, your secondary drive is automatically full as well. You cannot start writing to the second drive as a primary.

To help you further.... with RAID 1, when your PC application writes something to the primary disk, the code contained within the RAID hardware will replicate that same write to the secondary disk. So your disks are mirrors of each other. Edit: beat me to it above - agree with all of that.

Redundancy = your contigency capacity. It's redundant until you have a primary disk failure and you need it to use it.

I'm no legal beagle, but I did study contract law for a couple of years, and you have mentioned your "contract" above. A general principle of English contract law is that there has to be a "consideration" on both sides, in order for the transaction to be an enforceable contract (with a few...

I had to wait 5 months last year from order to delivery of a Lee Big Stopper. And that was through one of their authorised dealers.......

The stands are excellent, more heavy duty than a lot of the others on eBay. Yes, rolls aren't that portable. It's swings and roundabouts. Paper tears / vinyl is heavy / fabrics crease. :-)
