My computer randomly shuts down for no apparent reason either.

It's either motherboard or cpu as i've i've tested everything else.

I hate pc's as it means to fix it realistically i need new RAM, motherboard, and cpu, powersuply

All you have to do is buy a copy on US Ebay and have it shipped here .... too easy. Or better yet, the gay classification (or lack thereof) makes it almost legitimate for us to pirate/torrent the game

It never usually happens to me but I have noticed that upon new OS install it does it maybe 4-5 times then it becomes completely stable, it must be patches or something that fixes it.

I am now running 64bit winxp pro and I must say significantly quiker than vanilla xp pro.

Well i seem to of fixed my wireless woes.

I got another wireless adaptor. A linksys one.

I now get excellent signal strength and no dropouts what so ever.

Also my computer seems to boot in half the time and is more stable.

I'm guessing that the netgear wire;ess adaptor just didn't agree with my hardware and/or drivers.

Everything was up to date, including firmware on everything.

Ohh well all good now.

Also fishpaste someone from your work rang me today.

Do you guys have any games in stock at all? or is that not really your area?

someone is pulling some kinda random insurance job thing and wanted quotes on crap

have to ask the boss about games, we normally get copies of the new big titles when they come out, but other than that, we dont get much demand for them

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      I don't know it is due to that. It could just be due to load on track being more than a dyno. But it would be nice to rule it out. We're talking a fraction of a second of pulling ~1 degree of timing. So it's not a lot, but I'd rather it be 0... Thicker oil isn't really a "bandaid" if it's oil that is going to run at 125C, is it? It will be thicker at 100 and thus at 125, where the 40 weight may not be as thick as one may like for that use. I already have a big pump that has been ported. They (They in this instance being the guy that built my heads) port them so they flow more at lower RPM but have a bypass spring that I believe is ~70psi. I have seen 70psi of oil pressure up top in the past, before I knew I had this leak. I have a 25 row oil cooler that takes up all the space in the driver side guard. It is interesting that GM themselves recommend 0-30 oil for their Vette applications. Unless you take it to the track where the official word is to put 20-50w oil in there, then take that back out after your track day is done and return to 0-30.

      Nice, looks great. Nice work getting the factory parts also. Never know when you'll need them.

      I take it that the knock retard is from bearings tapping a little tune? Thicker oil is a fragile bandaid. You need a much bigger oil cooler and probably the bigger pump being discussed.

      Hi @Chupapy i had several leaks from coolant pipes being corroded, i also had one leak on back of the head onto transmission. For me that leak was from the turbo water line. Follow the line to the back of the head The hose and metal pipe had perished these are the best pics I took of it at the time
