They're the quad LED ones. It looks loads better than having bog standard bulbs in. I think they cost me about 4 quid off eBay. I want to get a HiD kit for the fog lamps now 'cos all the lights are a brilliant white except for the them (even though they don't get used much).

I'm gonna buy one of these and install Knoppix STD to it. T'is a far better Linux distro than Limpus IMO, and it'll contain a lot of the stuff I need to use for work out of the box. The version with the regular hard disk also runs Windows 7 really well believe it or not.

When I left school I got an apprenticeship for a local company working in their IT department. I went from helping people I knew to fix their computers, to being taught all about Windows NT, networking etc pretty much overnight. After being there for a few months I started getting relied upon...

That looks gorgeous matey. I love to see people driving their cars properly, but I also love to see people making the effort to keep a well-driven car looking great. I had my first go with Dodo Juice "Light Fantastic" yesterday. I'm very impressed with it. Although I didn't put quite as much...

When I did mine it was a right f**ker. A hammer and a bit of brute force sorted it. I found getting the bolts back in again was the hardest part.

In this picture, to show how much of a shine it's actually got, I've increased the contrast a bit and lowered the brightness slightly. Looks much better I think.

Yep. It's currently sat on Sportlines but I'm looking at going down the coilovers route later on. It will be getting a KTec supersport system in the next couple of weeks. Might get a de-cat too, dunno yet. I'll also be getting the inlets matched at some point in the near future. I need to...

Aii. T'is very shiny at the minute. Wheels are still a bit grubby but the pics are such low quality and it's so dark that you can't really tell. I'm going to do them properly next week when I've got a bit more time.

Thought I'd post a few pics of my car up, since it's clean for a change. I've spent all afternoon cleaning and polishing it. Unfortunately, my digital camera got nicked so all I can take are crap quality phone pics that don't do it much justice. Feel free to comment!

Started using Treesize (free version) just lately. It's great. Install it, and it'll graphically indicate how much of a hard disk's space is being taken up by each directory, and each directory below it. It's very useful when trying to free up disk space, since you can immediately see where the...

I chased a Silver ph1 172 on the A38 near M1 J28 at 6:50 this evening? Looked smart. Anyone off here? :D

You sure that isn't just the Lustymobile after some bits have fallen off? How do you tell the difference?!

VLC FTW here. Saves faffing about if you ask me.

Have you changed anything recently? Any settings? Installed any new software? Had any new hardware like a modem or a router?

Two of my mates are big Pug fans and have both owned a couple of SRi turbo's. I had the pleasure of driving one once. It'd done 124,000 miles and drove and handled brilliantly. I do believe there's a video on Youtube of him doing 12 miles in about 5 minutes, then the night vision on the camera...

Try doing Microsoft Update instead - it might be that Dell have the wrong driver listed for your laptop. I've known that to be the case before. Go to http://update.microsoft.com/microsoftupdate and choose to do a custom installation. Under "Device Drivers" it will list any updated drivers that...

My workmate went to a party to celebrate that. Sad b*stard!

You'll need to go into the BIOS and make a change or two. Sounds like the boot order is wrong.

OpenOffice !

http://azureuswiki.com/index.php/RouterConfiguration That should get you started. Your router might not be listed on there, in which case you might have to consult your handbook and try to work out what to do. I'm sure someone will help if I've gone to bed by then :p

BitTorrent has its uses actually. I pay for the Giganews platinum service, which is awesome. Anything relatively new I can max my 20 megabit internet connection out with, but sometimes if I want something old I simply can't find it on the usenet network. That's where BitTorrent comes in. I often...

UPnP = Universal Plug and Play. It's basically a way for applications to dynamically configure port forwarding on routers so that non-techy people don't have to fiddle with NAT rules etc... Azureus is configured to use UPnP if you're getting that error. If you've manually configured port...

Have you tried disconnecting the disk that isn't part of the RAID0 set and booting the machine again? And is it a hardware RAID controller you're using, or are you using Windows' built in software RAID functionality?

Looks like one of those Matchbox cars you had as a kid, when you'd pulled one of the back wheels off and it wouldn't go back on properly so it stuck out loads.

Does look quite nice TBH. I'm not a fan of blue Clio's with black wheels, but that Meggy looks schweet.

The iPod should appear in Finder IIRC. You should be able to browse the iPod as if it was an external disk drive, then cut and paste (or drag and drop) them from the Photos folder on the iPod to a location on the Mac's HDD. I could be wrong though. I haven't touched a Mac for months.

Yes. Bear in mind that a DNS record can take anything up to 72 hours to propogate around the interweb though. If you edit your "hosts" file so that the www address points to the IP address of the web server it should prove that there's no DNS issue, and that the DNS changes just haven't...

Poo. Pinko got there before me lol.

The host's web server might not be configured to respond to HTTP requests in the form of an IP address. If it's a web server that hosts multiple websites it'll most likely use host headers to determine which site to serve. It does this by reading the HTTP headers and using some form of logic, or...

Don't know why it'd stop downloading via POP3. It should just download them all once and then just download new ones thereafter. I'd personally use IMAP instead though. It's much better. It'll keep your email client in sync with your gmail account, whereas POP3 will just download the messages...
