Hey guys
Going to take it to a repair shop down the road from me.
Charge £30 to diagnose the problem.
1-2 days turnaround.

Will report back once done

Thanks

hey guys

it was the motherboard that was faulty in the end.
the shop recommended a bundle for me.
as follows-
i7 940
asus p6t deluxe
8gb ram(16gb total now)
all for 100£ fitted

all is well now.

what are your thoughts.

cpu could be better methinks.

Glad you got it sorted.

I still have a i7 950 running in one of my systems and it does fine. Not sure on the prices but for a modern system you wouldn't even be able to buy the memory DDR4 for that.

Your second post said "Minimal costs preferable" and you ended up paying £100 on top of your SSD
You did get a better system though, I hope you enjoy it.

If you want some advice: hold off on the case unless your current one is literally falling apart. There is a good chance your current rig will be 'old' as well and you'd prefer replacing it. Would be a shame to sit there with a massively oversized or undersized case at that point. These days you can build great systems in any form factor, such as ITX/SFF.

Or, pick up a cheap case somewhere, second hand. No point in getting USB 3.0 and all that new stuff that's not supported anyway.

Heys guys.

Pc was working fine before a restart.
Getting this error now.

Any ideas?

Edit-ignore that guys.
Changed boot order to hd 1st which still has win 10 on it.
Then on the choose operating system screen choose windows 10 on volume 1.

Still this cant be right having the hd and not the ssd at 1st boot priority?

Error is self-explaining: you've enable booting from the network somewhere (or the BIOS came configured that way). Disable that, as you probably don't need it anyway. Then make sure SSD comes before the HDD in the boot order (it doesn't matter if you have a DVD drive or USB before them).
