lol done thanks

cheers for all the help on this thread i hijacked got the comp back and fitted today made sure the yellow plug was correct with no gaps and i can report its WORKING just need to reset/set the time now so how do you do that

Also.... difficult to see in the photo, but it looks like there is a gap at one end. Make sure the black insert in the yellow plug is pushed fully home in the yellow bit.
