Went up last night to do a report for lovepetrol.com with the chaps from supercardriver.com Really enjoyable evening. The F400 I cannot describe how beautiful this car is. 95k seems like a steal to me if your looking at R8's and Astons for similar money this has ten time more presence...

First proper going over its had since we had a baby 5 1/2 months ago. She actually sat and watched me do the last hour :D Bit of fun in the engine bay ;) Where the magic happens

Popped along to this yeasterday. Its a young event only in it's third year but well worth a look. Its like a mini version of Goodwood. I cant tell you how totally gorgeous the Ferrari 458 is. The pics I've seen of it just really don't capture it properly. You...

Wowzers these things are a bit hardcore aren't they? Even as a veteran driver of the already pretty uncompromising VX220 I found the experience a real eye opener. Unassisted brakes are definitely the way forward they were superb when up to temperature. 6 gears, 550 KGs and 150 BHP felt like a...

looks like a trophy?

I'm doing a bit of a write up for the whole trip but this was our first stop so the bit I've written up first. We'd just arrived in Rotterdam after having caught the overnight ferry from Hull and having not a lot of sleep due to some stag/hen parties causing mischief..........Enjoy...

Got an Advent DHE1000 thats refusing to boot. When you first turn it on you hear all the fans kick in then theres a click and some of the fans sound like they stop and it refuses to boot. Dont even get as far as the dos screen. Does this sound like a PSU fault to anyone? Ta!

Just got a new tower with a SATA hard drive. the mobo has an ide channel but when I plug anything into it I cant get past the initial boot screen. I did have it working before but all of a sudden got this probalem and it only clears when I remove the IDE drive. Tried different ide cable with no...

I work in electronic security and we have more and more stuff going onto networks these days. Unfortunately when you come from a world of proper wire terminals and nuts/bolts we find IP stuff to be a bit flaky at times. Current problem I have is a bit of kit that we have connected via an...

Had a superb day today at Croft! Weather was a bit iffy in the morning (check the state of the car that was gleaming before I set off!) Navigated my way up the A1 having to pull off to check for damage after a van shed a plastic wheel arch part right in front of me! Thankfully it was ok so it...

Am I right in thinking the. New iPhone is capable of this without needing any additional hardware? If so what's the best application to use?

What are the available options for getting reasonable speed broadband on the move? I'm thinking its about time I got in the 21st Century as proper web access would be really useful for me. At the moment I have a nokia 6630 smartphone which has totally crap internet access. What about the...

I'm currently looking at moving meganesport onto a VPS server as a stepping stone to a dedicated setup. Are there any reccomended suppliers out there or possible pitfalls I need to be aware of? I've had problems with chared hosts imposing stupid things like query limits on SQL and things like...

Got me a new nikon D40 so thought I'd have a play :D Bit of post processing to wash the colour out a bit and go for the top gear look :)

I'm trying to find some silent fans at the moment to stick in the back of a cabinet that I have a HTPC and surround amp in. Are normal PC case fans all 12 volt?

anyone have any reccomendations? I've used frontpage before but fancy something similar but that will give better restults cheers!

Just having a dabble with a database at the moment and my host has a query limit which is stopping me from restoring the database from an old backup. Apparently a workround for this is to create 3 users for the database so that the dump program (bigdump) can effectively triple the query limit...

Just setting this up at the moment. The host computer at the moment I dont have an administrator password set up on it. Do you have to set up a password in order to connect using the remote computer? On the laptop I'm using to connect to it its asking for a username/password ta!

One for the networking gurus again :D OK I've recently got a PC set up in the lounge for wathcing films etc. I have run a CAT 5 data cable up to my router upstairs. Plugged it in today and the little tray icon says "aquiring network address" but it never connects to the network it just says...
