    Power Switch

    Many thanks for all your replies - i know it is definitely the lead from the switch to the mobo now - dismantled it all and one of the green/black twisted wires is split !. I know nothing about soldering so it looks like a hunt round PC shops to find a spare (if anyone knows a UK website i can...

    Power Switch

    Thanks for your reply Roger, i tried using the Reset button / wire but this does not work with the power switch either (which may mean that it's the pins on the motherboard that only respond to manual shorting ? !). I have inspected all the wires and they appear to be intact and in good...

    Power Switch

    I have an older model MESH ATX Tower and recently it would not turn on - i pressed the power switch on front of case and absolutely nothing happened. I bought a new power supply and still nothing. By process of elimination i think it must be the power button / lead on front of PC, as i can short...

    Can anyone tell me if there is a maximum DTS Package Log File Size, and if so what is it and can you change it ?. Also are there any consequences of running the Package if the Log File is already the maximum size - presumably the Package fails, or atleast does not log ? Thanks for your help...

    VSS Standby Database

    I am wanting to make a copy of our VSS database available on a completely different Server, so that if our live Server goes down, we can still access up-to-date documents on the standby Server. I realise that I could just copy the main top-level folder and all it's sub-folders to the other...
