    STOP and oil warning lights, but oil level fine.

    They swapped it out for 0w30 when they did the pressure switch.

    STOP and oil warning lights, but oil level fine.

    The pressure switch was swapped out at the same time. Now I don't know what to think if 5w40 is standard. Oh well, if it doesn't happen again, then alls good.

    STOP and oil warning lights, but oil level fine.

    Well, I finally got to the bootom of it. Garage couldn't get it to repeat whenever I left it with them, so I left it with them over the weekend and they figured it out. (also helps that they had a new guy start who's a Renault expert). It turns out that when I had it serviced (dofferent garage...

    Xbox 360 Confused

    100% sure that you can do 1080p via component. That's how I've got my non-HDMI 360 connected up to my Samsung TV. Also, from the product description of the component cable: edit: from a little bit of reading, it would appear that it may be a limitation of the TV if you can't do 1080p via...

    It's from NASA's Astronomy pic of the day. I run an app called APOD which updates it every day to the new pic.

    Disabling hard drive in bios

    No. The OS needs access to a disk to be able to read or write to it.

    London at night - tower 42

    I dunno if they're handheld. EXIF say's they're 1/2 second exposures, it'd be pretty difficult to get such crisp shots with a 1/2 second exposure while holding it. I wouldn't mind seeing these at their real resolution I bet they look fantastic.

    My PC does not have Hardware virtualisation

    Does it need to be 2008 R2? Initial release 2008 can run on 32bit, only 2008 R2 is 64bit only.

    My PC does not have Hardware virtualisation

    You can use any other virtualisation software, you just can't use the MS one built into Win7 http://www.vmware.com/products/player/ or http://www.vmware.com/products/server/ Depending on what you actually need. Both free.

    FAO:Anyone in networking HELP ME plz!?!?!

    That just sounds like they want you to get the costings for the devices and not for all the associated infrastructure such as cables etc. I would suggest that once you work out what you want model wise just google the model number under the Shopping tab. i.e...

    [PC] no valid ip configuration... local access only

    You have your old router connected up to your new router? You probably have two DHCP servers active on your network and they are battling it out. Disable the one on your wireless and let your current firewall deal with assigning IP's

    FAO:Anyone in networking HELP ME plz!?!?!

    You appear to have no firewall, also, if you ask me S3 should be a layer 3 switch to handle your VLAN routing rather than using your border router. Or is that not part of the project? As for install prices, what do you mean? Would you need the price for setting up everything from scratch...

    Transfering save games from Xbox 360 to Xbox 360 Elite

    If I read about the data transfer cable properly, it wipes the old hard drive right? If you have to move your savegames instead of copying, then is there anyway to have them on more than one Xbox?

    Transfering save games from Xbox 360 to Xbox 360 Elite

    I just picked up a 360 Elite (Currys, £179 with 2 controllers, Pure and Lego Batman) to replace my current non-elite (only got a 20GB HD and no HDMI out :dapprove: ). the original Elite is going into the bedroom as a media station. I'm not bothered about transferring any content (I can...

    HTTP latecncy/response time testing tool

    I'll give you an example of how bad this client is. They were first complaining that their SecureClient VPN connections were slow. They way they tried to prove this to me, was by using speedtest.net. the problem is, not only do they route all http traffic while connected via secureclient...

    HTTP latecncy/response time testing tool

    Problem is that they claim that it is just as slow when they bypass the proxy, so I want a programme that I can give to them so they can actually record some empirical data instead of "feelings" and "perceptions". i already setup an IPerf server so they can test throughput (and if you ask me...

    HTTP latecncy/response time testing tool

    I'm having an issue tracking down an issue for a client. They claim that HTTP browsing performace is rubbish through their firewall. Every test I have done seems to show no issues with their firewall, yet I still see anything from a 1sec to a 10 second delay when someone hits enter in their...

    Mines installed to: "C:\Program Files\TVersity\Media Server\web\admin\TVersity.exe" try just running that. If that failes, just search for TVersity.exe

    help streaming from laptop to 360

    I think maybe you haven't set TVersity up properly or something then. TVersity just works for me. I point it at my NAS drive, point my Xbox at it and it plays the lot. Most files get played directly, and it transcodes .mkv's and anything else that the Xbox can't play nativly. What more...

    Anyone got one of the Samsung LED sets?

    Most of the stuff they jabber about in the reviews is all about if you want to setup your TV 100% perfectly. It's really for total audio-visual nerds. 99% of the stuff you probably won't ever notice except in extreme circumstances, or unless you're really really looking for it. I think mine's...

    'Cheats' on C.O.D. Modern Warfare 2

    Depends on whether the calculations are done client or server side for kills. If it's done serverside then the kill will not count, as it is the server which decides if you managed to kill someone or not and it takes positional updates from all clients and works out if it is a kill or not...

    Anyone got one of the Samsung LED sets?

    Yes you can. I have played HD MKV's on my TV from memory stick or USB hard drive (just to see if i could). I didn't get them to play through the DLNA player though, not that I care anyway, as I have my PC hooked up directly via DVI which also runs TVersity to stream to the XBox.

    Best broadband package for gaming?

    http://www.virginmedia.com/help/traffic-management.php Gives you a nice table for all the connection speeds, the time bands and hpow much you can download/upload.

    Anyone got one of the Samsung LED sets?

    OLED is a totally new technology. Organic Light Emitting Diode. They will be much much thinner than current screens. As the screens are basically printed onto a background using technology similar to inkjet printers. For instance, this is the Sony XEL-1, the first commercially available OLED TV.

    Anyone got one of the Samsung LED sets?

    I have a 46" 8000 series Sasmung LED TV. It's great, I love it. Default settings are a bit gash, but once you set it up it's a fantastic picture. Even plays SD pretty well. Loads of inputs, plenty of pointless gadgets built in (like the ability to have the TV send a signal to the remote...

    BIG problem HELP!

    It is exceedingly rare for your account to be hacked as such. 99.9% of the time it is all about keyloggers being installed on your PC, or you have been phished. Once you have one account, the others will fall like dominos, as they are generally all linked together, or the first e-mail account...

    FAT32, NTFS, exFAT & XBOX

    If you format a disc with HFS+ (the Mac format) it works. The Xbox can read HFS+ already, but you need a program like MacDrive to read/write it on your PC. The other simple method is to use FAT32, and just cut the movie up into 4GB chunks and play them 1 after another.
