    Microsoft Refurbisher Update on Windows 7 Home Premium

    Any news on this Nige? As you say the chart that was on page 19 of V4 of the refurb document is missing on page 21/22 of v5. It would make life easier and clearer if we can just use the pro licence.

    Lame situation with a customer, how do you handle this?

    Personally I just give them advice and let them buy hardware. It's not worth the hassle for a little bit of profit. If you still want to supply hardware factor in for getting this sort of problem. Looking at the reviews on Amazon there are quite a few about colour reproduction not being good. As...

    Weird HP Envy Laptop Problem

    Could be a hard drive issue so certainly take a clone of the drive. After that I would remove Norton and go from there. Often these Internet security programs can play havoc. Go from there.
