Morning all, I am looking for some advice as I've been out of the loop for a while with photography. I own a Nikon D80, Nikon 18-70 1:3.5-4.5G, Sigma 30mm 1:1.4D and a Nikon 70-300mm 1:4-5.6G. I am going to be getting back into it this year but want an upgrade on my D80. I want to spend around...

Can you not use a dvi cable? I work fixing acer pc's and coupled with windows8 its causing huge problems when people are using HDMI.

Thats actually quite refreshing to hear.

Try a fresh sata cable. You'd be suprised how easily they can become damaged and fail.

Same as when fitting a new motherboard to a HP or Compaq there are codes that have to written to the BIOS in order for windows to stay activated.

I got mine from ebay for £8 used. There aint a mark on it so I may have been lucky.

I would say both ports would work out the same. 3G doesn't run fast enough to saturate either port so I wouldn't worry about it.

I have the yonugu 560 mk 2 and can recommend it. I'm not going to pretend I'm an expert or have used any others to compare with, but the build quality is good ttl works perfectly with it and it tilts and swivels.

I would start of by running memtest...http://www.memtest.org/ You can run it from cd or usb key. Best to rule out the basics first. If the BSOD's are random it sounds like a memory problem. If your memory passes then time to look into windows logs.

Maybe they had OCD?

I can confirm the hood in that pic is what I got fitted on my 70-300.

"Chillblast NVIDIA GeForce GTX 670 2048MB Graphics Card" You definately don't need this high level of graphics card if you aren't gaming.

I picked up a 18-70 off eBay for fifty quid and can recommend it.

I used to fish the witham a lot mainly out at bardney and also down hykeham, but since scunny angling club took over all the river from lincoln to boston i've not bothered. Nothing against scunthrope angling club, i just think it's a cheek them taking over lincolns rivers.

To be honest its not left the house so i've not really noticed the weight too much. It was an impulse buy really rather than for a certain purpose. Im on newark road by walkers crisps so not far away.
