    Just bought a 182. Best insurance?

    Surely if it's for her commute to work it should be insured under her name, with you as a named driver? As that is the EASIEST situation to catch insurance fronting - most places of work have some form of CCTV, and also her colleagues will be asked how she gets to work. Just something for your...

    Warning Lights Fault - ABS, Traction Control and SERV

    Hi all, Wondering if anyone can shed any light: My 182 has occasional faults with what I can only assume is part of the braking system - the ABS light, Traction Control light and the SERV light come on. This can be cleared by turning the ignition off then on, and doesn't affect the engine...

    Alternatives from PC?

    Don't understand a word of the description, and we're advising a PC as it's a known quantity and the bits are out there to get to use it properly. If you get something like that the fitment for the pads may be different limiting what you can do with it...

    My old thread if you re-call (250bhp clio williams)

    Put it on axle stands and take the wheels off? They think it's a non-runner and they'd have to find a set of wheels to go on it to get it anywhere...

    Alternatives from PC?

    If you're on 110v then it's easy - you just need to change the plug!

    182 6-Speed

    Way too much a waste of money. What would be interesting is a 6th gear ON TOP of the current 5th, as I think the engine would do so much better at cruising if it wasn't forced to rev so high at 'normal' motorway cruising speeds.

    Live feed thru bulkhead??

    How do you plan on getting the audio feed to the amp if you're running a standard stereo?

    Argh! I hate myself [56K No]

    That was pretty stupid wasn't it. Remember in future, you're driving a base-model on steelies, not a RenaultSport or anything else with a degree of handling in mind... It'll never go round corners like a racing car...

    New 5mp Sonyericsson coming soon

    It'll be better than N-series phones - period - because it won't crash a tenth as often as them.

    Vista 64 or 32

    It will do, as the OEM disk is just a piece of software, the license sticker is the legal side of things and it is up to you to make sure you are within your license agreement, as Microsoft have every right to take your license off you and you to court if you have entered any old key that you've...

    Windows XP slow?

    If it's a 3.1Ghz P4 I assume it's clocked - are all the timings right?

    o2 retention !!!

    I moved to T-Mobile from O2 after T-Mobile offered me a better deal and then O2 cocked up and sent me a bill for the wrong phone to be cancelled around £400 - then took the money anyway despite 6 phone calls saying they wouldn't and it would be amended. Phoned the bank, recalled the funds and...

    See I thought black would be too much, but perhaps dare I say a chrome finish to bring it back up to the level of the paintwork?

    Quad core set up

    File server wise you want to steer clear of virtual servers as you need significant network bandwidth which would be removed from other virtual servers, and print wise you want to steer clear of virtual servers as it requires significant processor time. I think really it's meant for small...

    Quad core set up

    That rig is a mess. Your memory isn't as fast as your processor can manage (try get the two matched, get a nice ratio and if you get some of the Dominator stuff that loves to be clocked, and you'll get some good gains) and you want to steer clear of the X-Fi (and all Creative cards) for audio...

    Vista 64 or 32

    Same problems as XP, it's missing a lot of support still from hardware vendors and nobody as yet writes thier apps in 64-bit, apart from a small handful (and typically, the handful you don't use!). That and the fact that Core Duo in my laptop is only 32-bit is the reason I use 32-bit Vista.

    installed vista on my 2nd HD, now want rid..

    What do all you goons have against Vista? I'm running it with less problems than I had on XP on this laptop, which Sony haven't even released drivers for yet (I've used PCG-F130 drivers IIRC) and it's great. A couple of bits are in odd places but you'll get used to it - remember 95 was all in...

    iTunes for Windows Vista

    It works on my Vista laptop - a couple of little things don't work quite healthily but it still works and updated my iPod fine.
