Good value for money February 23, 2010 Dr. M. Gray (Scotland) 6 out of 6 found this review helpful
I bought this two weeks ago without knowing anything about the company, or about computers, other than you plug them in and hopefully all is well, but this looked like a good deal, and so far it has been. It's child's play to set up even for the most nervous computer user, with very clear instructions which ensure you don't go wrong, plus it's already programmed with the registation key so you won't find your machine suddenly stopping after 30 days because you've forgotten to register your edition of Windows. Despite all of my peripherals being Windows XP, or earlier, it recognised them instantly with no need for me to hunt about for any installation disks apart from my HP printer. Windows 7 takes a bit of getting used to - I spent ages looking for 'My Documents' only to discover that Microsoft, in its wisdom, have decided to junk that and it's now called Documents - but you can create a short cut to your desktop. I found it a very fast machine, much faster than my old one, and though the fan isn't the quietest in the world you soon get used to it. Oh, and if you're like me and can't figure out how to open the DVD slot it's on the right hand side, that silver 'dip', which you press firmly, and hey presto it opens!
Excellent value February 14, 2010 Graham Wade (Bordon, Hamshire, UK) 6 out of 6 found this review helpful
This is an excellent machine for the money. I added 2Mb memory and replaced the fan with a 420 Watt Fan and it is quiet and fast. Components are good (foxcomm motherboard for example). I own a company producing software and this machines copes with the development environments with ease which previous home machine didn't. Will probably buy ZoomStorm next time rather than DELL. HP, etc/ for company machines.
ZooStorm Flies on Windows 7 March 17, 2010 Scrouge (UK) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
What can I say. delivered a day before the pre dispatch estimate. Delivered in good condition, I had to reseat the powr connectors on the motherboard as they had lifted slightly. ZooStorm have changed the case, it is has the front USB & microphoe/headphone in the middle front of the cabinet with the power on of switch, which is blue with a red HD light.
The instructions are ok, but refer to Vista, a non existant windows disk and also a non existant Bullguard Internet Security Trial, they also imply you need to activate windows, but W7 does this automatically. I can't work out how the sound is supposed to be 5.1 as there is only 1 audio plug at the back of the PC (and another microphone & Headphone point???). Ill probably remove the soundcard out of my old PC & shut down the Realtek Audio facility.
Noise - people have said the fan is noisy, is it? not for me, I can hardly hear it and it is quiet, so nothing to worry about there.
Windows 7 installation was simplistic, taking just over 5 minutes.
Early days yet, but I am really pleased.
Spot On ! March 27, 2010 Micky Mudd (Cheshire, UK) I spent half a day getting stuff of the old PC before installing this Zoostorm, so was getting jaded by the whole PC installation. I connected the broadband, printer, speakers etc before switching it on and was amazed that it didn't ask for connection codes for the broadband or installation CD for the printer. Obviously it is so much faster than my old PC but it is the fact that nothing fazes it. For instance my old Minolta camera was recognised within a minute of plugging it into the PC - no hunting about for installation CD.
Great value January 28, 2010 Vincent Vega 12 out of 12 found this review helpful
Very good price considering the spec of the machine. I had never heard of Zoostorm before so did a quick google check first. I would definitely buy another Zoostorm product. My only complaint is the noise of the fan. I read all the reviews on this model before and someone did mention it. It can be slightly annoying at first.
