Had a look at your website and it is very resourceful. Loads of information for everyone who wants to know more about extreme macro photography.

Your average pc user may not know all the technical names like sata, dimms etc so baffling them with technical terminology is pointless that's why I myself keep things simple. Yes I agree installing Windows is easy these days. The problem is down to budget as well, a lot of people that build...

You are probably right, I have a bad attitude when it comes to windows update, I seen many a problem occur due to it. A few years ago Microsoft issued a graphics card update for various cards that failed miserably. When the computer loaded the new driver all the user got was a constant black...

I would not worry about Windows update is because Microsoft will just install a load a updates that slow your new pc down. Try running a registry checker like this https://www.piriform.com/ccleaner. If nothing is reported then I would do all the basic checks like: re-seat the ram reset the...

It seems this is a common bug, that Microsoft tried to pass off as a virus, one solution is since you do not have any software installed is to backup all your data and perform a clean re-install. The second trick you might like to try is to disconnect the second hdd and change the boot sequence...

thanks

The problem is with laptops you cannot adjust the screen like you can an LCD monitor as they do not have they same functions to adjust and like as been said the angle amongst other. Most laptop screens are poor anyway especially cheap models.

A bit of advice invest in a calibrator like the Syder4Express. Then look at how different your photographs are. Obviously the Express version is the cheap one but you might not want to spend much.

For Winrar just go to the Rarlabs website and get the latest version.

Use your creative skills with WYSIWYG Webbuilder, If you want to do some coding then you can but it is very straight forward to use and keeps getting update on a regular basis and allows plugins which there is a lot on the companies website as well as third party ones. There is a trial version...

You do not state which brand or model of camera you are trying to update. Some firmware updates come as an .exe extension, so you copy it into a folder and run the exe and it unpacks the firmware. From here you simply copy it across onto the compact flash card, making sure it is formatted on...
