Are you going through the boot tab in the BIOS menu and selecting the usb?

Edit : strike that, just read your reply to someone else.

What OP is it currently running on?

ta LC but got it going now.

Upgraded from 32 bit Win XP Pro to 64 bit Win 8 Pro.

If you didn't know you can do that, well - yes you can but you need to have a 64 bit capable PC and to keep the costs down download your Win 8 upgrade onto a USB stick or other media whilst you are on a 64 bit PC (mine was using Win 7).

Then you can go up to 64 bit (if that's what you want). Bit faster and uses the RAM memory more efficiently so I believe. :cool:

just got dtd on finest meal deal, paid £18, so got 16 back:T, bloody jobsworth on the till wouldn't take the finest £2 voucher cos it wouldn't scan, called supervisor who hadn't arrived after 10 minutes, so I had my voucher back and told him I would call head office - didn't mention it to CS lady as she was a bit of a trout and I had to ask twice for dtd on the overcharge.
I got Classic lamb & champ ( was all they had apart from chicken in slop)
Roast potatoes in goose fat
Chocolate melting middle deserts - wanted the profiteroles, but none of them left either :mad:
Montepulciano wine

We have been limping along with my new Windows 8 laptop since Christmas - I am sure the new set up makes sense with a touch screen but personally find it very annoying for normal use as the screen changes to something else almost randomly depending on where you are on the screen (I know it isn't random, but annoying nonetheless!!). I have trued to persevere but may give in and change to Windows 7 set up you as you suggest as it then works as intended.

Yep try installing Classic Shell and you might get the benefits of both worlds - brilliand Win 8 operating system but with Classic Shell a user friendly interface that is easy to use because it's just like the Windows operating systems you've been using for the last 10 years

Free as well

Yes his till will be down. You can't use the vouchers more than once anyway so next time you're in give it to cs and explain what happened

Fuzz maybe use the black/ red technique to try to preserve your stake?

£1 on (say) red.

You lose.

£2 on red.

You win.

£1 on black.

You win.

£1 on red etc

Ie double up on the same colour as long as you keep losing.

Then change colour but go back to £1.

Often you'll end up pretty close to £20 at the end.
