Thanks, you and Ben have both been awesome. For a while we were almost chatting in real time, I can't believe how speedy your responses have been. Great work guys, you've both earned yourselves a big pat on the back.

No worries mate, glad its all going ok for you

[ben1066]

Glad I could help instead of asking for it

I wish I knew how I could update the title to show it has been resolved.

The PC is running great though. I'll have lots more questions as this is my first intel in a long time.

Go up a level to where you can see your thread and all the others, double click on its box, not the text though, it should turn into an edit box.

That was letting me change the title but not the prefix, but it made me think that if I can edit the thread title maybe I could edit the prefix if I try and edit the first post, I found it there under the Go Advanced options, which is good to know.

Hang on, is the drive formatted? I'm not sure, but if your booting the Windows disk in EFI mode and the drive is partitioned as MBR then it won't appear, it'll need to be GPT partitioned.

This helped me immensely; why oh why was your reply so hard to find on google.
I had to register just to say thank you!
