Something is wonky with text spacing as of late
ENTERPRISE replied to axipher's topic in Site Suggestions
Hey guys, So I looked into this again with the dev and it was identified before that it was how the site caching was being handled by Cloudflare, unfortunately last time we tried to resolve the issues, it was no possible at the time. I am going to revisit this again with our server guy to see if we can re-investigate this with a view to adjusting the spacing. I cannot promise this will be 100% resolved as we might like. Thanks, E -
Hello all, I am wanting to put a Tutorial section together with "How To's" for the PC. I have some topic examples as shown below, this is not an exhaustive list by any means and we can have anything from beginner to expert level content. Why am I looking to do this? As a tech community, I feel that we should have a Tutorial section for members to access at their leisure, but this will also be useful content to refer a user to who comes seeking advice on any given topic. It is in our best interest to house Tutorial content, rather than pointing people out to the wider internet, this helps us keep our community bubble rich in best of breed content and will help to grow the community by making EHW an attractive resource overall. Furthermore, this type of content helps to bolster our position on search engines and in general can help us leverage SEO further, but that is more of a secondary bonus overall. I am looking for help with this one in writing these up. I know we have talented writers here, so if you have any ideas and would like to run with it (or would like to run with an idea already listed), let me know here or in a PM and I will mark you against the topic. I am currently working on a dedicated FAQ section for the site where we will host this content, as we will keep it separate from the general forums. However that does not mean we cannot make a head start on the content! I have come up with the below ideas off the top of my head, but please pop some suggestions here! Tutorial Topic list Examples. - How to reset CMOS. - BIOS flashback, what is it and how can I do it? - Best practice for Nvidia GPU Overclocks & stability testing. - Using NVCleanstall to debloat Nvidia driver installers. @Mr. Fox - Best practice for AMD GPU Overclocks & stability testing. - Best practice for Intel CPU Overclocks & stability testing. - Best practice for AMD CPU Overclocks & stability testing. - Best practice for RAM Overclocks & stability testing. - Overclockers Arsenal - Must have software/utilities for overlockers. @Mr. Fox - Ensuring XMP/EXPO Is enabled for best out of box RAM performance. - How to best diagnose a BSOD (Who Crashed). - How to do a fresh install of GPU drivers (DDU). - What services are safe to disable in Windows to free up resources? @Mr. Fox - Slipstreaming a Windows image to remove bloatware (Nlite or similar). - Setting a preferred DNS in Windows/Linux. - Create a BAT script for mounting network drives on Windows boot. - How to diagnose system lag & audio stutters (LatencyMon). - Utilities for tweaking Windows (Winaero Tweaker or similar). @Mr. Fox - Reducing system latency (Optimizing interrupt signalling & Windows). - Taking control of Windows Update. @Mr. Fox - Tweaking for Performance vs. Security, Disaster Preparedness using Drive Images (Macrium Reflect) @Mr. Fox - Hosting multiple operating systems on one machine. @Mr. Fox - HWBOT Tweaks for better scores. - F@H PPD Efficiency Tweaking. - Motherboard/GPU Prep for Sub-ambient overclocking. - System Tuning For Gaming @GanjaSMK Rewards Other than being able to boast your Tutorial prowess and helping to grow the EHW information base, Those who complete a satisfactory tutorial will be awarded £25.00 (GBP) per tutorial in cash value that will be paid via Paypal. Note that while Paypal is preferred, should you wish to use a different method, arrangements can be made. I will aim to complete all payments as soon as possible but assume a 30 day turnaround. Many thanks, E

Hello all, Apologies for the inconvenience but unfortunately the Marketplace is no longer available. The marketplace is developed by a 3rd party developer that was an "off the shelf product" (not specifically for just EHW). Unfortunately since IPS decided to close the plugin marketplace that was a one stop resource for community owners to get plugins and applications, it has made life harder on verifying plugin version compatibility & integrity with updated versions of the IPS platform software and you do not know if something is incompatible upon upgrading, by which point it is too late. It is now a very manual task to get the latest versions of each plugin While most of the plugin developers have their own websites (in light of the IPS Marketplace closure) now and I have access to the latest versions of most items, the Marketplace plugin has lagged behind in development and has now fallen out of being "Supported" due to a difference in PHP levels. I have made contact with the dev to see if we can get a new version sorted, not just for us but for anyone also using this resource. It is possible that we will also have to temporarily disable the following site features in the future: Discord Integration Tags (Used for the news section) Again, this is down to plugin developers becoming unavailable. Now, within reason it is likely that we can replace the above mentioned plugins with a like for like, specifically developed for EHW moving forward by my dev contact. So it is not my goal to lose the noted functionality permanently, but there may be an interim period where we will have to be patient. Thanks for your understanding. E

Unsure if this is a bug or a config issue. However unfortunately the developer of the Marketplace is no longer available and is no longer compatible with the forum platform software, so I have had to disable it completely. So until further notice the Marketplace is closed. I have made contact with the developer and will wait to hear back from them. Also please see:

Yes, this is something I noticed a long while back and it was investigated and there was an issue that made it difficult to fix, I cannot recall what it was specifically, but it is one my list to revisit -
Changes to the "Latest" Section - Have you say!
ENTERPRISE replied to ENTERPRISE's topic in Site Suggestions
The poll was originally for whether or not we removed the Date/Time. Granted this topic evolved somewhat based on feedback and my general agreement with the ideas and different changes have been implemented. As I say, I wont be able to please all. it may be possible to have a theme switch to allow you to have the "Simpler" old version back, but this would be a consideration for the future. -

Thanks, I will make that as a suggestion to the Dev if it makes the layout easier to work with when trying to accommodate for the varying resolutions of devices. I have written up the adjustments list for the dev and will send to him tomorrow. Note that there will only be so much we can cater to and alas, I won't be able to make it look spectacular on all devices, nature of the beast when you have a tonne of different devices being used on the site -

ENTERPRISE replied to ENTERPRISE's topic in Site Suggestions
I will see if that can be avoided, will speak with the dev. What phone is that on ? On my phone, the columns stack vertically and not horizontally, so on mine it looks fine. Once I know the res on your phone we may be able to improve. That is a fair point, we might as well make it uniform :), will speak with the dev. -

Cooling down the AMD Ryzen 5 3550H Mini PC, Thoughts & Advice?
ENTERPRISE replied to HeyItsChris's topic in CPU's
Sweet, you will have to let us know your final temps once you have finished the mods so we can see what a difference it makes -
Always a shame to see. I would imagine it is more about resources than behavioural issues of members. We should head over and welcome them here. Source

Cooling down the AMD Ryzen 5 3550H Mini PC, Thoughts & Advice?
ENTERPRISE replied to HeyItsChris's topic in CPU's
Good job with the re-paste. So you have put the copper shim to the underside of the motherboard behind the CPU? -
I have indeed found a new supplier for the T-Shirts and I am trialling one as we speak. However please note that life is not always "Just do it already". Cash is king, and to be frank, ordering samples to trial costs, just as much as the store actually has to be financed BEFORE orders come in. The production for all orders has to be financed directly by EHW, to which you need to have the funds to ensure that you can cover a good majority of orders to avoid delays and disappointments. Remember that users who spend their cash on an order, EHW see's none of it for a little while as all funds are held before being released. So it is not the case of spending your money to manufacturer and ship the order, EHW has to cover everything up front. To put things into perspective, I am a sole worker in the family which has to cover mortgage, utility bills, debts etc etc. While user premium subscriptions and kind donations goes someway towards the running of EHW, I pay the rest, including any merch related ventures and marketing. So as you can appreciate while time is a constraint on my end at times, money is a bigger one. Rest assured I am going as fast as my wallet allows

Thanks guys. As I say, there will be more T-shirts soon and I will add in some images related to technology that helps to pull in the name relative to a subject matter. What I will say is that so far as marketing the community, the merchandise is not the top priority right now. While the merch certainly helps in this area, It is a piece of a bigger puzzle and there are pieces that have higher importance Realistically, the Merch only penetrates so far as the immediate community and its marketing power outside of that by wearers is low (right now) but in time it could pack more punch.
