    Why are you pasting random information from other sites?

    Its not negative, its just a question.

    It would appear to me that this forum runs on a problem solving basis, and not a post a random tip one. If thats what you want though, Im sure I could fill the first few pages with unrequested PC information.

    That's what I said in another of the OP's threads. It's ok if it's posted in a sticky but taking half the forum page up with random advice isn't all that productive.

  • I think if you give info from another site (especially verbatim as seems here) you should give credit to the site (or person if you got the info from another thread in here for example) you got the information from. Maybe this person was just trying to be helpful though so I guess it's the thought that counts.
