    [x360] Shenmue II

    Got my DC and a loads of games boxed up somewhere. This thread is making me want to go get it out and set it up. Got Shenmue 1 and 2 on it. Been a while since I played them. Can't remember much about them.

    Red Faction : Guerilla. Erm, ok?

    You're just rubbish. :rasp: Quite easy mission, if you take the sensors down the easy way. If you look there are jumps quite near to most of them, means the EDF cars can't get nar you if you hit them. Don't slow down just keep it floored at all times. If you miss one ignore it and carry on to...

    Old man's new motor (and a cheeky snap of mine)

    Thought it was, I was in my C4 at the time so if you happen to see a Custard coloured C4 with black rims that is lowered a fair bit that is mine lol.

    which panasonic plasma??

    The G15 is in your budget and is somewhere in the middle of them. You don't get the full white balance controls. However I have to say after a bit of messing about I have got the colour pretty much spot on. Also has 95% of the features of the G20 for £400 less. G15 can be had for under £700...

    Old man's new motor (and a cheeky snap of mine)

    Were you near Wash Lane today in Bury? Sure I went past the Impreza. I just remember going past a black Impreza with numberplate in the window.

    Petition To Get Rid Of Front Numberplates

    A lot of places in the USA and Canada are adopting the front number plate for similar reasons to what has been said in here. Will find many cars now run front number plates there. Thing they are actively introducing it when you renew your plates in many states. My mate went front having...

    The positioning of the indicator stalk

    Depends on the car really. Right hand drive stalk on the right. Left hand drive stalk on the left. Unfortunately since the majority of cars in the UK are European they all have the stalk on the wrong side to what it should be. Another area often over looked in the RHD conversion. When you...

    Steam useless

    Go into your steam folder and delete the Clientregistry.blob file. Used to fix issues like that as well as a few others. Not had any problems myself with steam for a long time though to be honest.

    GPU Upgrade

    The Ageia PhysX cards are no longer going to be supported either so not worth spending on those. Nvidia are basically going to make them unusable so you have to invest into one of their cards. Bit annoying really. I mean they would surely make more money if they took something like a 9800GT and...

    pc really slow?

    Instead of just unticking things which could cause programs to stop functioning properly. Download http://free.antivirus.com/hijackthis/ get the executable only. Then post up what the notepad listing is. Copy and paste it onto here. It will allow us to see everything you have running at system...

    GPU Upgrade

    Using an 8800GT as a PhysX card is a bit pointless also power hungry and rather toasty cards. Very few games make massive use of PhysX anyway. Also not officially supported has to be done with work arounds.

    Fallout 3 Addon packs?

    Should have easily hit 30 if you did most of the side quest way before finishing the game.

    Worth the Upgrade?

    Thing is the i5 isn't much of an upgrade of a Q6600. Really very little in it between them in normal use. Even the i7 920 not much between one of those an a Q6600 in actual abilities unless the program is designed to make use of more than 4 threads. (Most aren't) GPU, Memory and Hard drive are...

    Question regarding Windows 7 upgrade

    Funnily enough no. Instead of trying to be clever. Why don't you go and look it up see what the MS engineers have to say about upgrade times. Infact I will provide the link for you to make it even easier...

    Please reccomend me a Intel motherboard.

    Asus board is a great board run that one myself. However not suitable for an i5 based CPU anyway. Wrong socket i7's only. Even then only the 1366 based i7's. Seen Scan's today only thing? If you order before 1pm on friday will still count. They have a package deal of i5 750 and mobo. Various...

    Question regarding Windows 7 upgrade

    Depending on how much data and how many programs are installed etc it can take an age to do the upgrade. Not talking about on low end hardware either. MS engineers have said that it can take around 10 hours to do a backup on a Q6600 based system with around 650gb of data and 40 - 50 programs...

    Question regarding Windows 7 upgrade

    Back everything up and then just wipe it and restore from backups. Usually quicker than the upgrade which can take anything up to 24 hours to complete. A fresh install takes about 45 minutes.

    Mass Effect 2

    You can get them loyal again but you need 100% paragon or renegade. If you have that anyway you can quite easily keep them both loyal straight off. Just pick the paragon option. Same with Tali and Legion. I imported my ME1 character, Got a few starting credits and some other bits and pieces...

    1080p Streaming

    Why not try a homeplug setup? PS3 ethernet into homeplug and 2nd home plug to router. Cheap, not adding extra devices and you can get 1Gbps homeplugs. So way more bandwidth than you will ever need.

    64bit vs 32bit Windows 7?

    Not found anything that does not run under windows 7 64 bit. It supports 32 bit apps fine if they won't run there are always compatibility modesor if you have professional or ultimate and it is an office type app. XP mode to get them to run. No reason to go for the 32bit especially if you have...

    GPU Upgrade

    5870 or the cheaper 5850. The 5870 is a cracking card though. Will run basically anything you want to throw at it. Have one in my new rig and it is a great card. Faster than the nvidia cards except the 295 but that is a multi GPU card and more expensive. Also the ATI cards are DirectX 11 and...

    Windows 7 Student Deal Licenses

    Comes with 1 license. I just installed it on my new system had to call them and activate it again by phone as it would not activate automatically on my new system. Had to explain I had just built a new system and wanted to put it on this instead.

    Trans am grenade

    LS7 is the 7.0 block hence the 427 that you sometimes see badged on them. A change of cam and some other mild upgrades and they respond very well would get it into the 600 mark anyway. Loads of them at the 600hp mark without much done to them. The 6.0 block I believe is the LS2 with the 6.2...

    The Half Life Series.

    Only a 10gb download not too bad. Just use the torrent link if you don't want to use rapid share. What I am doing as I never knew about the mod so downloading it now. Flying along at maximum speed of my connection via the torrent. So a little over 800kb/s. Just need to get crysis again now to...

    Recommend a wireless dongle please?

    If it is for a desktop why not just get an internal wireless card? They are about the same price but in my experience get better signal quality. Petty much any dongle / card from a fairly well known brand will do. They all do the same thing.

    PS3 via DVI/VGA?

    Just press and hold the power button down for around 15 - 20 seconds. Will return the PS3 to standard settings.
