Indeed, but I still want to play my games. And I note sarcasm there, I don't "need" an i7, i7 is preferred otherwise you will be spending more time than necessary. It adds up when you have to repeat again and again to improve your code and make sure everything works.

i tried to use adobe after effects at uni of kent (went on some video editing thing with my friends) , that is by far the worst for computing power, even on a core 2 quad rendering took so long

 

[FreedomEclipse]

that particular laptop got pretty bad reviews anyway.... Its madness that they kitted up up with a quad core and no dedicated GPU. not even a low/medium class one like an Nvidia GT130

Well looks like im not getting a new phone after all, just got knocked back on my previous address. The credit rating is fuck all to do with me, might do some phoning around.

why, think you've had your identity stolen or something?

 

[MilkyWay]

nope for some reason my parents old house has a crap credit rating, i think after we left and my dad was the only one in that house while it was being sold well he might have defaulted on a payment or something making the rating on that house shitty but thats fuck all to do with me

my parents are split btw

 

[cheesy999]

sounds like you haven't had the best of luck then

might be of some use ringing the mortgage company though...

But i have gandalf, i mean dumbledore might be a timelord but he just doesn't have the same skill as gandalf

No sir, of course not. But an orange, oranges are timeless!

i debate that, if i kill an orange it doesn't normally come back to live, cause it's a fruit, but gandalf came back to life, and he's a w1zzard


EDIT:Whats the second LOTR movie?

Gandalves have short memory I see. The 2 Towers would be the answer you are looking for. So, Gandalf, how do you feel to find an orange more knowledgeable than you?

Short memory, i never knew in the first place? i asked cause i have all 3 and after 2 years of owning them suddenly have the want to watch the second one (never got round to it)

whilst were on the subject of gandalf, tell w1zzard his forums aren't working properly again, apparently, i'm not actually myself, but 'another user'

LOL. He will probably change it to something like "This post has been added by another troll" or something like that.

Ah well, can't blame you if you have not watch it.

Well it's started now, and it's 3 hours long, so there better not be anything good on TV

Who you calling a troll?

No one, but we all know what w1zzard does.

I'm going to post in the comments and feedback section

This is why you don't do subs/dubs. Meaning gets changed in translation.

Yup, most people don't understand that a subbed film is just a straight translation. But when it's dubbed, it's "regionalised" (or "Americanised" in most cases).

I watched a really old martial arts film (can't remember which) and 5 minutes in I heard the main character (the good guy) say to the bad guys "You're not gonna need this money where you're going - straight to hell!" in an American accent.

At that point I turned it off and asked my brother to find me a subbed version

Anyway!
any of you guys had a motherboard thats slow to POST? it just dawned on me to check the PSU voltages but it just seems strange,erratic i guess.
Sometimes it will post as normal and other times it might take 5 minutes to get into bios...
Suggestions?

I won't suggest something as noobish as resetting the BIOS so I'll go outside the box lol
My mate had the same problem - it took so long to POST he just kept his rig on 24/7. He was using 2 SATA HDD's an ATA HDD that was on the same IDE cable as his CD drive; I changed the jumpers around on the ATA HDD (it was on cable select) and bingo!

I'd completely remove all ATA/SATA cables and try it.

same a friend lent me so old jackie chan movies. I couldnt stand the dubbing and didnt bother watching the rest

oooo!
you might be onto something there sam,i couldnt find a pair of ide cables for HDD + CD so i put them on one line,shame on me i err took all my old computer bits to the tip
it's that foxconn 775 board,so i was taking tentative steps as i didnt know if the p531 would be fully supported.
Thanks btw do i put a heat for that?

so yea the board recognises everything connected but won't boot off my win7 HDD or my boys XP,so i will try having out the IDE cables or messing with CS/MA/SL and keep my fingers crossed!

I havent got alot of (baby sleeping) time to work on it as i got a tidy keyboard in that needs fixing,and its worth more time than the old box.

the keyboard that pretty much spans the desk,it must weigh about 25-30kg
its a fatar studiologic 880 and the key weighting is awesome,feels just like a piano.

 

[Fourstaff]

Nice set of keyboards you have got there. Personally I look down on non full sized keyboards, because epeen demands I use the entire keyboard

What kind of music do you play? Mine is of this sort: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qa0Z6g1XJkU
I am not as good, this is the last piece I played to almost perfection.

Dear Sir,

I would very much like to bring my guitar/amp around to your studio and do some recording.

I would very much like to give your electric drumkit a bashing.


Yours sincerely

Mr. F.E

That's an effing bootiful setup that's how I imagine my cellar is going to look

Yea just try to boot without any cables installed. If it's quicker booting, you've found the culprit. I've never used the CS setting with jumpers. I've always set master and slave myself

You've just reminded me lol I've got a ton of heat to leave!

 

[MightyMission]

They aren't mine
Mine is far more messy and err cramped
i've only got a few keyboards amongst other essentials and with 3 sons there is no way they would be in such good condition
i just wanted to find an image to give a sense of scale(pardon the pun)
i tend to touch on whatever is moving me at the time fourstaff,so it invariably is an eclectic jumble of jazz/dub/jungle/soul driven by my favourite instrument:the chapman stick.

 

[FreedomEclipse]

I miss playing the drums so badly....

I miss the ability to get on the drums during band rehersals

 

[MightyMission]

mm my tama kit is stashed and i can barely afford to keep the bits n pieces in a lockup,but i wouldnt be without my yammy digi kit.
cant you get yourself in NME or something?
even pop down to your local studio (music house N1) and offer to pimp yourself as a session musician?
Chris is a really nice guy but i dunno what kinda music you favour...

On the upside i got the fatar working so chuffed with myself!! it was only a couple of zener diodes gawn.Well i think its working but i dont have cubase installed atm,are there any light programs i can use just to check the midi controller is triggering?
