| 860996 | 2010-02-25 00:26:00 | Most chemists or watchmakers will sell the battery. Flip the battery out and take it in for a replacement to ensure you get the correct voltage etc. | Sweep (90) | ||
| 860997 | 2010-02-25 00:36:00 | Supermarkets and shops like Dick Smiths have them as well. | KarameaDave (15222) | ||
| 860998 | 2010-02-25 00:49:00 | The "Overclocking failed" is amessage used when a board hangs up during POST, it does not always mean there was a failed overclock, as many things can cause a hang during POST. What brand is the video card? probably it is faulty - do any of the capacitors look suspicious? They may have degraded in storage |
