I'm going Inter-railing around Europe in the summer and am wanting to take my DSLR with a few lenses & filters etc...
I am taking a 65litre rucksack, and was looking for a bag which could fit in there somehow, not sure if there's anything made specifically for travelling in mind ?
Any ideas ?
In the process of finishing off a new build when I order the CPU...
The MB is 6 core enabled with a BIOS Update.. when the CPU comes, obviously the board will be stock, and I don't have an older AM3 CPU to install the OS with and download the Update to enable the new 6 core...
How the...
Here's what I have come up with so far...

Just a quick photoshop request for all you talented folk out there...
Lowered (looking to get 30mm front, 25mm back) & black spoiler same colour as wheels.
Thanks muchly !
I purchased the component cable for viewing my iPhone movies on my tv... When I try stream iplayer to watch on the tv the quality is terrible, is there a way to increase the resolution or will it always be scaled to fit the phone screen?
National Championships this weekend at the Harewood Hill Climb...
Not been for a good couple of years so thought I would take advantage of the nice weather since it was half price entry today ! £5... bargain !
Just bought a Canon EOS 1000D this afternoon, perfect camera for me!
Noticed the Tamron lenses at Jessops, but they look very cheap, especially compared to the Canon lenses...
Are they half decent for the money, or is it better option to save up and get the canon ones ?
Looks interesting from what I have read about it, anybody lucky enough to have this already ? Option 2 with the 40mb down & 10mb upstream looks great !
Be a nice upgrade from 8mb when it gets activated here in September !
One for the fellow geeks in here.
I am in the process of setting up a friends network, 2 laptops and one network Hard Drive. They both want access to e-mails, is it possible to set any programs such as outlook etc, to store downloaded e-mails on a mapped network drive rather than the laptops...
Finally got my pc in a working state, no crashes anymore (turned out to be RAM incompatible with my CPU).
When i play downloaded HD Contend in 720p, it looks great, but i get a bit of motion blurring / pixelation.
At the moment i'm using on board graphics, so i'm assuming a decent HD...
My PC has been randomly blue screening and restarting itself. I'm pretty sure it's bad RAM... but this is the error msg I get when i eventually get back into windows...
Problem signature:
Problem Event Name: BlueScreen
OS Version: 6.1.7100.2.0.0.256.1
Locale ID: 2057
Additional information...
Trying to setup my new Corsair Dominator RAM... 2GB stick (1066mhz)
System is an AMD2+ CPU so the 1066mhz is an option!
Just running memtest now, and it is showing up as 266mhz (ddr533) DDR-2 (Dual)
Does this mean DDR2 = 266 x 2 = 533
Dual Channel = 533 x 2 = 1066mhz?!
All of a sudden my wireless keyboard has stopped working before windows loads...
this means i can't select my OS on dual boot (have to wait for 20 sec timeout) or get into the BIOS!
Any idea what may have caused this ?!?!?!
Haven't downloaded any updates etc...
At the moment I have these TDL Nucleus 2 speakers http://www.tdl-loudspeakers.co.uk/nucleus2.htm running from a cambridge audio A1 amp http://www.hi-fi-insight.com/cambridge-audio-a1-integrated-amplifier.html
I'm looking for something a bit smaller that can sit next to my tv (26") on the unit...
My Own-Build system is suffering pretty badly at the moment from Blue screens and freezing....
I have a feeling it might be that the PSU is underpowered for the rest of the system, but let me know what you think...
AMD XP64 7750 Dual Core @ 2.71 ghz
4GB Corsair Dominator RAM @1066mhz...
If anybody can help me with a photoshop please could you get in touch. Basically got a picture and the sky is a bit pants, wanting to change it to a nice blue one!
Thanks in advance !
My folks recently bought a new system which i built for them, which has an ASUS AM2+ supporting board. The CPU they chose (for price) was an AMD 64 x2 6000+
I have been looking at some of the quad core AMD's for a cpu upgrade
Namely...
I have just installed XP Pro on a new build, it's a stupidly old build of XP, with SP2 on (after the initial install)
Only problem is of the 500 gig HD only 120 is showing up, when i go to my disc management I can see the other 380 gig, but I can only create a new partition on a seperate drive...
Picked up the Astra at the start of the week and after a week of absolute torrential rain, it's been nice and sunny today so I've had chance for a play!
Got some pics, let me know what you think :)
Tomorrow I will be picking up my 07 plate Vauxhall Astra VXR!
Have had a blast in the 172 in the 14 months I've had it, cracking little car, just fancied a change really !
I've part ex'd the Clio with the dealer so I will post a link when it's up for sale with them, I've got my last 2 cars...
Girlfriends 1.4 Clio has been running a bit "ropey" according to her recently.
Sat in it today and had a go, and the accelerator pedal is absolutely solid! You have to push down SO hard to get moving at all and then you end up ragging the balls out of it!
She can't remember how long it it's...
Recently upgraded to a shiny new Netgear Wireless N router, it has been running fine for about 6 weeks with no issues whatsoever (in 270mbps mode)
Woke up this morning and the connection had dropped on my laptop, when i tried check for the wireless network it had dissapeared from the list...
Just got back from my local national tires as my rear exhaust rubber mount has snapped clean off.. he said that as it's a dealer part i'm looking at 50 quid minimum...
Sounds like a right skank, also, he said whilst it was on the ramp, my rear n/s shocker looked damp, so that will need...
Turn the key, started no problem, then cut out when i set off....
now it turns over for about a second, then clicks off... that's as far as i'm getting.
It's been on diagnostics before and nothing showed up, no lights are lit up on the dash.
I'm totally stuck here because sometimes it starts...
On the way to work this morning my SERV light lit up, along with the ABS and traction control lights. Got to work no problems
Tried to start my car after work, it started, then cut out.
Repeated this this again, same... then third attempt it wouldn't start at all.
