Thought a total format would wipe worms and such, as for error logs i did read them but really there was nothying there i could interpret as being non windows related, and b4 xp, update did nothing but update and, updates weren't from MS, but i can see the error in thinking that would make a difference. and you are convincing me that an instructor would bullsite a class of students but wonder why.

Some members here are probably wondering how I could sprout such rubbish and be believable, I'll tell you a story and make up your own minds.

You're still talking crap. You really should quit while you are ahead. Well, not so much ahead, but before you get too much further behind.

I hope you are a better fitter/welder than you are MCP :S

No I am saying the instructor has been fed bullshit and is passing it on himself.

 

remember  

"Those who can ... do!

Those who can't ... teach!"

Very true, guess it's never going to hurt Microsofts bank account to scare people into handing over their cash for something which can be had for free, or so I hear :cheers:

A format would wipe most nasties, but it is not guaranteed a fresh start. The cleanest method, short of a low level format is to boot from a floppy do an fdisk of the MBR then perform the format with unconditional option. Do they even teach what a MBR is in MCP? A piece of paper does not automatically mean you know the product inside and out. :P

I dont think the teacher would bullshit a class, but I would dare say not a single teacher is able to pass on all his/her knowledge to everyone they teach. :)

mcp 2000 has reference towards mbr but does not go into detail (i studied Sybex books)

doing cert IV and dip in IT should cover it but these 2 certs are over rated now that everyman and his dog can do them at tafe and then think they know everything

[slide] No cant remeber Specific leture on MBR and cbf looking through notes so yeah could be mbr but would a format in dos and then ntfs from cd eliminate it?

One more thing, I have implied that I know that combo but I don't,

Hrmm.. perhaps you should google what a master boot record (MBR) is to understand what it is and its purpose/function. As it varies between operation systems and would differ between operation systems. I first learn it based on information I gather while learning different type of viruses (yes I was curious...).

Modr33s2, formating does not put in a new MBR so any information on it is still there. NTFS from cd (I am assuming you meant re-install from cd) , I am not sure if it would even plaster in a new MBR I wouldn't think it would. The install process would most likely would read the existing MBR then append or modify it accordingly.

Slide.. I'm not sure your cert IV course would cover it. The BIT I did at Griffith 5 years ago certainly didnt cover it in detail. One of the subject only cover as far as what it is in a generic term, which is ok to start with I guess.

Sorry.. think I'll shuddarp in this thread now. :P I would explain more if you guys are interested, just dont want to come across as a know it all which I ain't. Still am learn new things everyday. :)

ERM

i wernt explaining anything

im just stating that mcp didnt cover crap to do with the MBR

Cert IV is a peice of paper aswell and doesnt mean shit that is what i meant by everyman and his dog being able to get it. But being a cert i had to get it

Cert IV (the real non tafe cert IV) and Dip in it goes a little bit into it but strays more towards boot sector viruses.

    • There are several aftermarket options available, from not-too-painful moneyhttps://justjap.com/collections/driveshafts-bearings/products/d-max-reinforced-replacement-rear-driveshaft-set-fits-nissan-s13-s14-s15-r32-r33-r34-c35 and  https://justjap.com/products/crank-motorsport-billet-rear-axles-fits-nissan-skyline-r33-gts-t-r34-gt-t?srsltid=AfmBOorQk4xkGUa98kO7v2ePLUiNt-HRrM2AwWNw9mbSIVE1ujBVwY__, all the way up to The Driveshaft Shop https://driveshaftshop.com/skyline-cv-axles/
    • Yeah based on old XRC5964S specs, it looks to be roughly GTX3576R sized? But this 5964S compressor will flow 90lb airflow somewhat similar to the compressors in both the GTX3584RS or G35-1050.. I fully expected the 0.64 rear A/R to choke up top - seems way too small from typical convention - but these are seemingly beneficial over the prior 0.82 results.. Be interesting to see if he comments on the EFR question in that thread - he mentioned in a prior video that BW EFR's were the "cats pajamas 10 years ago", but by the sounds of things all his kits have been using Xona for quite a while now.
    • Yeah it’s still got the oem manual gearbox and clutch, only kinda mods are a blow off valve, coil overs, and a aftermarket intercooler. Also had it for about 2 months now with a lovely midnight purple paint on it.
    • Yeeeppp, been following a lot of the testing on the latest Xona stuff and there are some mental results.  He also went over 1000hp @ 4 hubs on his Mainline with a XRE6364S (63mm) which was also well into the 20psi range before 4000rpm on a 2.5. Crazy stuff. Fwiw the XRE5964S is basically the modern equivalent of their old HTA3582 - would drive nicely enough on an RB25 or 26, but proven capable of a huge amount of power if you want to spicy with rpm tho even at sane boost levels will make stout numbers 
    • The axels in my R33 seem tired, and have a bit of play in them. I cannot find any new of course, not interested in buying used, but I am looking to see if anyone can identify some cross compatible axles. In the states I have seen suggested for S chassis the J30 axles, however for the skyline (as best I can tell) the lengths are about an inch off (2.5cm) on both sides. R33 my measure L 22" R 24.5" GPT L 22.5" 24.25" J30 L 23.5" 25.5"  so shaft length is probably an inch wider. Not sure if someone has another still remanufactured option besides the J30. I figured worst case I can buy a pair tear them down and swap the center shaft. My other option was reaching out to GSP to see if they cannot piece together a set, since the axle stubs are still manufactured, I wouldn't think it be that hard to find a shaft or make a shaft work.
