im in lads, my team is redarmy7

this is coming from OFSTED a governing body, very unlikely that they will be sending malicious content. we have contacted BGFL, they have replied by saying that they cant put OFSTED on some kind of white list, which would allow those emails.

hi, i was wondering if anyone has come across the issue of OFSTED being blocked by the BGFL? emails from both ways are blocked, sending and receiving.

ok thanks for that mate, i will give them a try and see how that goes. thanks

the pc is out of warranty, so that is not an option, however is there any chance it could be something else? is there any way of testing the motherboard?

morning, sorry about the delayed update. i did finally get a chance to try the things that were suggested above, i.e. check the memory, processor was inserted fully/correctly, also laid it down on its side to boot, but i am still having the same problem. it gets to the screen which allows me to select a boot up option or bios, but then freeze's, i cant select any of the options either, it doesnt detect the keyboard or mouse. i read on one the replies something about updating the motherboard firmware, is that wise and can that be done? i have checked the motherboard and doesnt seem to be any obvious damage, so i think that may still be intact, also do you know what causes this? thanks again

cool thanks fellas, i'll give your suggestions a try and let you know how i get on. thanks

mac_shinobi, im not sure about the wattage, i will find that out later on and post it up this evening. i will also try what you have suggested outtolunch. thanks for your replies and let you know how i get on.

hi, my vista pc wont boot up, it isnt a specific make as it was ordered from the internet, a customised order, so cant provide many more details there. the problem im having is that it wont boot up, i cant even get to the bios, as it will just hang, i can hear the pc powering up. i am able to plug the hard drive in externally to another pc, via usb and view my data and extract it. also another problem im having is, no monitor will now work with that pc, this just happened recently, i dont know if this is linked or a separate issue, the monitors and vga cable are working, as they have been tested with other computers. any kind of help would be appreciated thanks
