lol. check page 1 post 1 :(

i dont make things tidy, i just want power.

I'm more pro evo geek than a computer geek, give me a ps2 and a game of pro evo 6 anytime ill whip ur ass.

Just a question, hopefully its welcome..... But has anyone had any problems with Windows Live Messenger?

For the past few months i have been having problems and its driving me insane! First i thought it was Spyware - No, Virus - No so what else could it be?

Problem is all of a sudden my CPU monitor shows its using 100 CPU on WLM, so i end task it and it drops back to normal 3-4% then like 20secs later WMP will topple and start using 100% CPU, its like a domino effect and i have never been able to end task them both.

It frezes up that much that i just have to push the reset button which i hate doing!

Anyone had any problems like this?

Any help or direction would be appreciated!

PS surprisingly i havn't found anything on the net about this problem :wave:

it is a known issue. I would try searching the net more for "MSN crashes computer" or "Live messenger crashes computer" you might find results.

if that dont work, update your windows box with all the patches, if that doesnt resolve, delete live off ur computer then use CCLEANER to clean up your registry files (can be found on www.tweaksrus.com), then reinstall msn live. i cant believe im doing my day job, within my day job, at work, on a SAU forum lmao. :wave:

One of my mates is worse, he is in a number 1 clan for Enemy Territory and he has his 'pro gamer' room. The thing is he doesn't look like your typical geek, he has his room with a mini bar, massive tv, all your cool stuff then he just closes the door to the other room if any girls come over. Massive neon case, random monitors and computer shit every where, its hilarious.

lmao, my pad is cool, ferrari flags on the walls, micheal shumacher pictures all over the place and ac milan banners and a few girls, and then in the study it looks like a freakin computer tech area workshop. its my job if any1 asks lol. i just happen to muck around with technology at home wihtout caring for it very much. my cars coming in soon so im probbaly get pretty bored with computers for a while.

ok here is picture of hub havnt had a look online for it yet

also i need a program preferable open source that will recover files from a format

EDIT

im trying GetBackData at the moment

Edited by Madaz

ive asked 2 questions i think SAZilla was talkin about the data recovery of the hdd

a program called 'Get Back Data' works but its 79 bux US

my mate doesnt want to pay that much to recover some photos

we had to format his PC becuase it wasnt loading and wasnt going into safe mode

its only low level format just need a cheap good program to recover formatted data (i dont pirate either)

1) where do i buy it (see previous post)

2) does it show you every file that was on the drive before formate and let you choose which ones to recover

im seriously thinking of just shelling out the beans for the program my self and then charge my mate a service fee for recovering his data :)

Madaz,

So its only been formatted? Nothings been installed?

I use this little utility on my usb drive.

http://www.snapfiles.com/get/restoration.html

Its not the best but its lightweight and does the job well providing you don't overwrite data. Most likely it won't work if the volume has been formatted.

I haven't really looked hard but there appears to be a few utilities that are free ware and work with formatted drives.

http://www.snapfiles.com/Freeware/system/fwdatarecovery.html

cheers yes formated reinstalled OS and 11gb of stuff back on a 120gb hdd

my mate seems to think it writes to totaly blank sectors first

the hdd was never full either only about 11gb before total crash

When you format a hard drive it does not completely wipe the disk by writing Zeroes to the HDD. That is the difference between a quick format and a normal one. If the disk had been quick formatted and only 1 large lartition setup on the new disk then your chances for recovery are pretty good, but if the data was written in the first sectors of the HDD like your windows installation and you never defraged then your chances are pretty slim. From what I understand anyway.

thats partly correct SAZilla

as my mate explains it better he claims a government format is where data 0 and 1 is written on the disk 7 times would take all night to format your disc this way

both ways to windows format quick and full are only low level format meaning data is recoverable

i did say 1 program can recover it but it cost 79us i ran the program and have seen all the data is there that i need just need to pay for it now

any ways im trying 1 from the site that cubes posted sumtimes it takes a fresh set of eyes searching for a program that i missed

    • Thanks! Supercheap has a sale on this weekend so might be a good opportunity to get a new one. I do have a decent multimeter so I'll give it a try either way.   Hah, you got me! I do not. All I know is that the battery holds charge and sits at an okay level before I start the car. Doing the full charge and rejuvenation cycle on a trickle-charger seems to not really make a difference to the cold start behaviour. I'll try and measure it during cranking and see what it does. It's likely terrible; it certainly feels terrible.  I'll be happy if it is really just the battery and I don't have to dick around with the alternator or starter motor.
    • how do you know voltage is fine?  quick easy test is connect DMM up and put it on max/min mode, remove fuel pump fuse, crank car for 3-5s, go check min voltage You'd be surprised how many "healthy" batteries are showing under 10v during this test in cold weather. 
    • Not properly. You need to be able to dissipate 100 amps or so to doing it meaningfully. You can do it indirectly by watching to see how far the voltage falls during cranking. Unplug the coils or something else to prevent it from starting so you can get a good couple or three chugs. It also helps if you have the multimeter set up reading before you start, and that it has max/min functions. So you can catch the real minimum without having to watch the screen, which often doesn't update fast enough to show the real max/min in dynamic situations. Or use a digital oscilloscope, which can be obtained for <<$100 from Aliexpress (although I'd argue for paying up to ~$200 for a nicer one). A >4 yr old battery will very likely be well down the path to the knackery. Many only last 5-6 years these days. The cold weather lately will definitely make it worse.
    • Hmmm, what do you mean by getting weaker? And where did you get that test done? I've been wondering about my battery because the cold starts crank super slowly. The voltage is fine. Not sure if cranking amps can be checked at home. Battery is 4+ years old.
    • No. The simplest wastegate hookup, with no solenoid or other form of "boost control" (ie, control over your boost control, if you know what I mean) is a single hose, direct from the turbo outlet/hot pipe, straight and only to the wastegate actuator. It is that pressure signal that drives the wastegate to open, providing the boost control (and by "boost control" here, I mean, limiting how high it can go, which is essentially the spring pressure of the actuator). You only end up with tee pieces and alternate flow paths once you start adding things to the boost control system to allow you to determine how much of that boost signal makes it to the actuator. There are so many ways to do that that there is no single way to run the hoses and tees and the like. If you have a stock boost solenoid, then all it does is either allow all the boost signal to go to the actuator, or open up to allow some of it to bleed off. There needs to be a restriction in that bleeder to allow only a small amount to bleed off. And in a stock system, that would then be plumbed back to the turbo inlet (for "emissions control" reasons). That is actually what that nipple on your BOV return pipe could/would be for. If you have an aftermarket boost controller and solenoid, then the above is mostly true, but there is no need for a restrictor in the bleed, because the solenoid is pulse width modulated to create a variable bleed off. The air that escapes from the bleed can either be vented, or also returned to the turbo inlet. For emissions reasons it should be returned to inlet, but the amount of air being vented is so small that it really doesn't matter (either from an emissions perspective, or from an air-fuel ratio affecting perspective).
