When the air around is warmer the ECU reduces the amount of fuel to the mixture hence more MPG. Correct if i'm wrong :D

Lazyness? :)

But then what about diesels. Diesels obviously work differently to petrols as they don't ignite the fuel with a spark plug, they compress the mixture to ignite. So it has to make the air hotter. Obviously taking freezing cold air is denser so there is more air the compress BUT its cold and a...

Modern cars really shouldn't do this. Is it a regular occurance? maybe an ECU fault

lol, whats funny is hes worked in fleet management for 7years so deals with cars and problems everyday...he is still googling it and looking for more info !

"As the fuel burns, combustion gases rise inducing rotation of the asymmetrical arms in an anti clockwise direction. Fresh air is drawn in from the bottom – it will be pre-heated by the asymmetrical arms as it enters the combustion chamber" Is the ECU's job not to add/remove fuel/air depending...

Morning, Just having a heated discussion at work and i'd like to say i know a fair bit about cars but me and my boss have different views on engines and cold air and hot air. Basically i say that cars run better off cold air, its denser and works better with the conbustion system. Obviously...

standard airbox? sounds like its maybe running too lean?

it was working fine for a while then all of a sudden i had to keep booting it in vga mode and the restarting. i thought it may of been drivers so updated them as its a brand new gfx card! The monitor just doesn't detect a signal but only the other day it was starting all the way upto the boot...

Right my gfx card has started playing up and now when i boot my computer up nothing appears on the screen. I cant even revert back to the on board graphics card as its disabled in the bios so nothing at all loads up. what can i do? the gfx card is turning out to be shite! All help needed please...

you must of spend a fortune downloading 8.5GB of music!!! unlucky fella, not much you can do really

morning all! needs clear repeaters as well homie! middo @ new car ^o) i'm behind the times

CPU Clock = 100 Min = 100 Max = 230 then asks for a hex code. same with gfx card etc. i've changed settings to manual though. 1024MB Crucial RAM NVIDIA GeForce 6200 256MB Also; the aperature size for the AGP slot is set to 64MB...should i change that to 256? Thanks for your help guys

yeah its AMD and i can only pressume its automatically setting the settings. I'll have a look in the BIOS now and see what its on. am i right in thinking it will vary between 100mhz -200mhz and will go in 1mhz steps?

what should it be :)

bump!

Hi, since fitting my new CPU everything was fine. It showed up at the correct speed of 1800mhz 1.8ghz blaa blaa blaa and since installing my new gfx card it now shows up as a 1.35ghz proccessor or 13500mhz. Is it sorted by a little setting in the bios OR gfx drivers ? I'm slightly confused :)

can you not do it with dvdshrink?

i take it if you've taken the screen shot on a HD the image quality on here would be better...SO...who has taken their pictures with a HD tv?

they look a bit poor quality? cos they've been squashed?

Running like a dream now. Think a faster HDD may be on the books when i can be bothered to install everything again. Anyone know of a super fast CPU...Socket A compatible though please :) i got a AMD 1.8ghz one at the moment as its the quickest i could find. i dont want to spend £100+ either

My old clio... (sorry for big pictures)

Meh, i dont have a program! Thats the thing..sorry if i'm confusing people or getting confused. I'm sure there will be something out there similar to the way "Windows Media Center" works. I have this installed on one of my PC's but don't have license to have it on another. I'd preferably NOT...

bump? An example for what i'll be using it for is; having a mazzive party and bacially want my music/film collection to act as a jukebox. People can just choose what song/film they want on and basically go on the compupter theirselves and select what they want but NOT have permission to...

Prefferably something along the lines of Windows Media Center except not a full operating system. I'd like it to be able to add on as a programme to Windows XP home and possible have password protection so users can only access the music library and videos etc. Sort of like a jukebox but for you...

idd^ i'm looking forward to it :)
