    external harddrive wont work

    because these are just 2.5" drives they take all their power from the usb port. I installed windows 7 last night on it so ill give them a go in that when i get home.

    external harddrive wont work

    7800GTX sli power consumption

    I know its not technically high performance anymore, but i currently have a 7800gtx and its getting outdated now, however i cant afford to buy a new £100+ card at the moment.
