My dad got a laptop for xmas, the buyer has left us now+ no-one knows where it came from. 3 minutes to start, 1 minute to open internet explorer, lots of freezing, going slowly. Bloody thing sends me potty. Its an ACER ASPIRE 3694 WLMI INTEL CELERON M 440 1.86 GHZ, 533MHZ FSB, 1MB L2 CACHE 80GB HDD, 512 DDR2 RAM Has xp home, office 2007 + macafee security+ no games etc. I thought it would work tons faster+ better than my ancient dell inspiron, but mine is soo much faster. :( Does it need more ram?, de-bugging? or just a slap :slap: ?? Cheers!!

UPDATES: Can anyone give me any info on updates for maps, Speed camera sitings and the like...? Is there a site Free or will it cost the latest downloads? Thank-you.;)

Choose a suitable word begining with C for the title. Followed a black Bentley GT home yesterday with a really naff looking cut down number plate in italics with the letters crammed in and black screws trying to make it spell something that I really couldn't work out. The kind of thing you expect to find on a really chavved up Corsa. The guy driving it looked about 20. As I got closer I noticed the following at the bottom of the plate: "To be envied is to be desired!!!" :xxx: :xxx: :xxx: How are you meant to take something like that? LOL For a start I don't even like the car so maybe he was referring to himself? :slap:

As above the slave cylinder has literally fallen apart. coming of the motorway last night. got to the top of the slip road ond the clutch peddle was on the floor. Ended up waisting most of the day only to discover that the rod from the box has dropped down the inside of the bell housing and the rod from the slave has literally poped right out. Well pissed off. My blue car is in storage and I may not be able to get out till Saturday afternoon, my other Red SWB is in the body shop with no front wings or bonnet and i have lent a friend of mine my bloody pickup truck for the weekend so I may be *****xed for getting to billing this weekend. Not fooking very pleased a…

has anyone else noticed that there are more and more paxo's and other chav cars going round with big holes cut into the front bumper, or the front grille removed, or even (like i saw today) a red escort with the whole front bumper removed!? are these guys pretending theyve got a drift-spec 200sx or something??? theyll never realise that japanese styling will never ever suit a european car!! :nono:

WTF gives, sellers can no longer leave neutral or negative for buyers! I can see a few advantages to that, but i can think of a LOT more disadvantages!!! Like the fact that sellers cannot be truthful about bad buyers anymore! I have had more than my fair share of buyers who do not communicate or who back out of a sale etc etc..... And the only thing that could really be done was to leave neg feedback, now sellers cannot even do that. I for one do not feel that the new system is fair at all! :rant: :rant: :rant: Rant Over :)

my new years resolution was to get in shape as over the last 5 years i have gone up 1 stone in weight and from a 32 waist to 34. plus im getting married in august so i bought myself a multi gym and went on a diet. i have lost over a stone in weight and i'm well chuffed but i'm not happy how the gym is going i can tell the differance in my arms and legs but my stomach isn't as i thought it would be, its flat but i want a six pack/toned i do loads of sit ups (as this is the only thing i know to tone the stomach) and my stomach is very hard but doesnt look that differant. anyone got any tips, i have been on the gym for 6-8 weeks nearly every night and it just seems so slow g…

Im not a great lover of footie, only ever watch the odd England game. But for some reason i cant wait to see the FA final, Pompey are just down the road, so they get my support, Got a feeling the outcome will be 3-0 to the Pomps. even going to place a bet on it.

As above, decided i want to wax my Z instead of keep polishing it.... Which wax do you find the best ? cheers

Does anyone have one of these? I've been wanting a machine polisher for some time now. Originally looked at getting a Porter Cable, but been more and more interested in the G220. Just wondering if anyone on here has one and/or has used one? Cheers

Well Im not impressed with the Pac Man game, can someone please tell me what Im doing wrong. I love a bit of friendly competition but whats the point when you get the top score and the forum doesnt register it so that it still shows Mac300zx as the score to beat. Please see attached pic just to prove Im not lying LOL

As above, just fitted the speakers I bought from him and they are alot better than I had in there. Cheers mate:dance::)

Hi, Any suggestions on the easiest way of playing MP3 and WMA music files which are on my PC, on my car head unit? Only thing I can think of is writing them to discs or get an MP3 player with one of those radio tuner things that plugs into the MP3 player. Vijay

Another one gone! http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/motorsport/motorbikes/7403931.stm :(

Hi, Anyone have any idea where I can get a length of 1" clear rigid pipe that would be fine with about 80/90 degrees? Cheers Vijay

I had to go on a health and safety course in Glasgow this week and during the course this video was shown. It seems quite normal at first but after the first minute or so passes it becomes so funny. **Caution contains Bloody scenes** Hopefully its the first time anyone will have seen this :) Our Trainer got the video from youTube and here is the link http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sdjt6Bl5qdY&feature=related Let me know your thoughts :D

Turboz what you been fettling with now, couldnt get on the forum for the last hour, dont you know jimmy has got spamming to do :x:

Whaaassssuppppp....bud i'm back ....lol....lol... ...

Please do not post a poll without a closing date on it. Recently someone has been resurrecting threads years old, just by voting on the Poll, because the thread author did not add a closing date. Which reminds me...whoever the bored individual is, that is looking for threads 3/4 years old with poll's, and voting to raise it to the top....then please STOP!, as it serves NO purpose, and is quite annoying. Thanks!

I want to rename a link in my signature for the surrey rolling road day, have tried searching but nothing becomes apparent?

Got the idea from another forum, but who cares..... I'll start it off with these.. The Piranhas..Tom Hark.. Have put the ashes to ashes vid, 'cos Keely Hawes is uber fit!;)) Pigbag, some of you must remember this, the playground 'fight song' http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S8FXuvuCCxw&feature=related Jo Boxers... The Cult.. One of the best tunes of the 80's Transvision Vamp.. Fuzzbox.. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0jOmWjMa7M0&feature=related Mmmm, Tina the drummer! My mate used to have a picture of her in his wallet, used to tell people it was his mrs!!:slap:

Once we have some suggestions the poll will be added :D

I'm sure some of you saw this on the news, the poor copper who was set on by a gang of Rangers football yob's. I'm sure we are not all fans of the police but this was just un called for. this is one of the reason's I despise football, you never see this type of thing after a Rugby match! If it wasnt for the anonomous hero Soldier, who pulled him away, then he'd have been seriously beaten if not killed. :( http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/manchester/7404185.stm
