welcome mate, great bunch and great info on here, you will learn everything you need to know on here....you'll have to!!!

Cars not running and is an auto so wont push

No trolley stands (theyre holding up the scrapper at the moment, plus I dont think my trolley jack will go under the rear as I have a lowered rear skirt

come on guys help out a fellow zedder ppplllleeeaaaasssseee

If you walk round our local Asda the chickens come before the eggs:D

Right Ill try again....HAS ANYONE GOT A LOW LEVEL JACK I COULD BORROW FOR A DAY????:D

If he doesnt get you one I will....thats where im going back to work;)

They are cheaper mate, the one Im after is FREE cos I only need it for a day, cant spend any money at the moment as Im due to go back abroad to work, hence selling all my bits off my breaker

Next doors fence is concrete mate, cars not running at the moment and its auto so I cant get it on the 3x2:D

OOOoooooo Znut aint gonna be happy with you mate, the problem is they wont put my new wheels on for me :cry:

Are you in Madiera mate??

Yep, think I threw it away and bought a trolley jack:p

I havent got a scissor jack, but I doubt that would fit either, and to be honest I dont trust those fookers

Well the time has come to put my new wheels on my car and get a decent sig put up. only 1 problem and I dont want any laughing.... I came to put my trolley jack under the car and it wont fit since I had my side skirts on!! does anyone close to me have a low level trolley jack that I could borrow for just 1 day, the car still isnt ready for driving round so I wont need 1 full time as yet, probably wont ever need 1 as Ill only have room for a get me home spray can any help would be appreciated Pete

No I hate Vista as well, Im using it on another laptop at the moment, and I cant stand it, the Toshiba is XP though, the pavilion is XP and I suppose changing after youve got used to something doesnt help much but I genuinely believe Vistas a great white elephant

Actually tried that but it wouldnt work, Anyways its not too portable then, Ive actually got a Toshiba NP-Q1 with wifi radar installed for ultimate portability but I really like the laptop (HP Pavilion DV6000) so I may sell the toshiba to finance the new screen

Cheers bud, so do I;)

Tried that mate, but couldnt find any paperwork to prove I own it!!! anyways got a claim ongoing for a new plasma going through and if the laptop were to take half as long as that it would be outdated and unusable:D

Yep powers connected, well looks like back to ebay then:cry: thanks for everyones input Pete

Whats a knackered one? the screen?

it is a different screen, same resolution (WXGA), but I was assured it is compatible and all relevant websites seem to agree, is the backlight seperate? The long white thing across the bottom of the lid housing attached to the screen by 2 wires? or is it an intergral part of the screen?

HELP!!! Does anyone on here know anything about laptop screens, I left my laptop on the floor and the dog sat on it and broke the screen :shock:I bought a second hand 1 off ebay and although it works the pictures very faint, except around the bottom where it seems to be a lot brighter at both ends (about 1 inch wide) and in the middle (about 3 inch wide) a little like the screen is letting in light, is the screen fooked? can the brightness be altered from within windows, I can lighten and darken it using the function buttons but it doesnt go bright enough, any help would be appreciated

Probably is but the floor thats down sounds quite good anyway so this will just seal, level and protect the floor and a lot cheaper and less labour intensive, have done it a couple of times in the past with no complaints

If I remember rightly, they do 2 different ones at BnQ, the small one isnt cost effective so go for the arger one, Im sure its BnQs own brand, but most tile shops supply the same sort of thing, incedently, it wouldnt hurt to 'wash' the floor in a mix 50/50 water and PVA first and let it dry

BnQ do a tile floor leveler which you just mix and pour, on its own its not very good as it would tend to crumble under weight, but if you mix it with 1 part water and 2 parts multipurpose PVA and keep the screed to no more than 5mm (allowing that your floor is flat) you will find this is virtually bulletproof and pretty oil proof as well if your floor isnt flat build up in layers at the low spots by no more than 5mm per pour and let it dry completely between pours. always ensure you mix enough to do the whole floor in 1 go on your final pour
