  1. If it were a problem with the CMOS battery, I would expect that the PC would lose the time altogether, not just change time zones.  Are you getting any CMOS errors when you start the computer.  

    If you have a multimeter, check the battery is reading at least 3.0V. If it is 3V or more it's probably ok.

  2. Just now, eisfeld said:

     

    I have to note that I also have received a few weird calls, one for sure a scam in the past week or so. Two other people in the houshold also received scam calls, both of them from oversees numbers. I usually don't receive calls like that. There seems to be a big scam call campaign going on.

     

    I have also has a number that appears to be a London number persistently try to contact me that I have also ignore (ending 2049). Anyone else?

  3. I have had 3 or 4 unsolicited calls to my mobile over the last 2 or 3 weeks.  Fortunately they showed as suspected spam and I refrained from answering them,

     

    When I did a search for the number it showed as masquerading as JIB on whoscall.

     

    Last digits were 2438

  4. I'm far from an expert, but (as far as I know) any minor change or edit to the image/video would change the hash. This would only pick up exact copies of the original.

    Can someone more knowledgeable confirm?

     

    Once something's on the internet, it's there forever...

  5. Thanks for the input so far...

     

    @Woof999, yes that's at the bottom end of what I hoped I could get. 

     

    I don't need the money so not desperate to sell but I don't need it taking up space and gathering dust either.  it sees occasional use for streaming in the bedroom so the plan is to sell for as much as I can and put the money towards a mini PC to replace it.

     

  6. I have a spare PC that I don't use very much so I'm thinking of selling it. But I don't know how much to ask...

     

    What would. the ASEAN Now hive mind pay? What would be a good asking price, expecting to sell for a bit less?

     

    Gigabyte B365 HD3 motherboard

    Intel i5 8400

    Asus RX 470 4 GB Strix

    2x 8GB Corsair LPX 2400 RAM

    250 ADATA NVME M.2 SSD

    1TB WD Green HDD

    ASUS WIFI / Bluetooth card

    Genuine Windows 10 or 11

    In a budget Aerocool case with glass side panel and static RGB front fans. (Can't remember exact model).

     

    Over to you...

     

     

     

  7. As a general rule, it's better to have more sticks of RAM for the same total.  You'd be better off going for a 2x8GB kit.  I have Corsair Vengeance LPX in my machines but any known brand should be fine.

     

    DO NOT buy any Intel CPU where the model ends in an 'F' these chips don't have graphics (it isn't on the motherboards anymore).  If you go for that chip you will 100% need a discrete graphics card.
