Finally found my answer.. Simply put.. They don’t..
If you live in Nottingham don’t buy from Web-systems.. This is the second time they have fed me total ****e...
Got a MB from them & when I got it home.. The stickers on the MB that go over the socket ram and AGP where missing. Did not think much to that. Then when I went into BIOS correct date & time set, floppy disabled along with COM1, LPT and onboard sound. When I came to install XP it would not get passed formatting the HDD. Kept saying that the HDD was faulty, but I know it was not... Anyway took MB back to shop same day and explained my problem and also my concerns that this MB was not new and it had been used. He asked what made me think that so I told him... He then said that’s how they come now days... You what I said.... and he repeated himself.. I then told him that I have been in the IT industry for 15 years and have never seen that, so he then made excuses then came back and said that before they game me a replacement they wanted to test it and it would be 5 days.. FFS.....
Also when I went to get this MB i did ask if it would be ok with a 9600XT.. Oh yes sir. This is a very popular combination..... Same knob head that gave me the **** about "this is how they come now days"
Used to think that Web Systems where an OK shop to get mid range kit from.. Not anymore.. Shame they hire fools...
Oh well rant over. feel much better now..
