    Windows XP, running slow, and locking up. I have found the solution.

    Cheers for this advice, Dave. I've got rid of anything published by (Rotten) Apple Inc., and my machine (Win7Ult) has massively improved in performance!

    If I've broken the rules, I'll gracefully suffer the consequences.

    If I'm not infringing on any TEF rules/regs, I don't care.

    What was going on here then (strange goings on with a hob)

    More like Nikola Tesla, sounds like one of his energy transfer experiments :slap

    Here we go again !! Windows10

    Piratebay is your friend here. I haven't paid for Mickey Mouse operating systems since I got XP with a computer. I've had no trouble with W7 Ultimate since it came out.

    Installation Method

    That was my thinking too. I was leaning towards IM C as well, but with the cable resting on an insulating surface, it didn't seem right. Just for the record, this is not my installation, it's a question that got me thinking. :-) It's a 9kW shower, wired in 6mm, clipped direct, with part of...

    Help with wire location
