DH Announcement: Network Changeover

UPDATE: The main phase of the changeover is now completed, however small areas of maintenance are still being performed around the site and will continue for the next couple of days, disruption to the site will be kept to a minimum and the website will remain open during this time. Discussion on the changeover and feedback can be discussed HERE

Apologises to any users who suffered DNS issues while the domain was propogating, we're glad you can join us now.

Thanks

There will be downtime on Monday 20th August 2007 from approximately 7am GMT. We aim to get all our files and databases moved over to our new servers within a 5-8 hour timeframe.

All sites in our network will be affected which includes, Driver Heaven, Driver Cleaner and Driver Heaven Downloads.

The changeover to more powerful hardware will resolve the speed issues everyone has been dealing with lately and should ensure that our readers will have the best DH experience.

Cool.
There are certain times of the day that it is a waiting game for pages to load. It will definitely be nice for searching the forums and posting. Good luck with the upgrade.

Wahey Skyheavens working again. Just had that tech one for a while, that was giving me a headache. I've noticed one or two sneaky differences though, looks like Zardon and the other staff members have had there maids outfits on and gave things a bit of a polish.
