The DVI ports are down at the bottom and the VGA port is at the top, on the left hand side (if you were looking at the PC from the rear). I opened up the PC and it looks as if they're attached to something, but I really don't know much else.

Further info: Running Vista, with an ATI card.

Thanks for the info so far Jak.
Dead VGA Adapter

In the back of my PC, I have two DVI sockets into which I have plugged a DVI-VGA adapter, which powers my main monitor. Now, I have a spare monitor lying around which I want to attach. However, I don't want to have to buy another DVI-VGA adapter because it'll take forever to get here/cost a lot/both.

In the back of my PC, I also have a VGA socket which appears to do absolutely nothing. I don't know what I'm supposed to do with it, or why it's actually there. Is there any way I could activate this socket so I can plug my spare monitor in there? Or is this just a bit of hardware not attached to anything?

And he drove in like 30 million different series this year, didn't he? If he stuck to one series, surely he would dominate. But apparently sticking all your eggs in one basket isn't his style!

Some simply breathtaking pictures in there, Tim. I've done hikes in the past but nothing on such an incredible scale. It must so amazing to achieve a lifelong dream like that, and fantastic that you're able to share it with the world in all of these stunning pictures. Staggering!

Quote from Radekteam :Hi I found strange bug. When you are switched to external view (TV view) and you will go to Driver settings in Options the driver model is intersecting the car. Image below.


Yeah, that's been around forever. Not Test Patch related.

Well you've modded the number plate, so the number plate has appeared in a strange place. If it looks okay in LFS then all is fine.

Never mind, looks like the master server went down and now it's all fine again. All 148 servers responded!

When I updated host list for the first time, it was quick and it worked. Now none of the 148 UDP servers are responding

One thing not mentioned; numberplates now have the GB logo on the left hand side. I assume this was intentional!

See attachment.

Just something some people may find interesting; a debate that took place on, yes, Facebook. Aston and Yusuf are both people I never expected to take an interest in this kind of politics. I guess the BNP are able to unite the nation in debate, that's for sure. Yusuf, in case you were wondering, lives in Britain but is originally from South Africa.

This took place last night, about 10 minutes after the show ended.

If it were up to the BBC, Vatanen would have won by a landslide. I didn't see a single article relating to Todt in the last 6 months!

Quote from G!NhO :It offcourse WILL touch the ground, if you think different you are just a plain idiot.

Yeah, way to go, jump on the bandwagon! You look so coooooooooooooooooooooooooooooool to me, I look up to you and your insane levels of intelligence. It's a shame I'm a plain idiot. BOOOOO SUCKKSKS

Edit: Yes, I know my sarcastic come-backs to all the arrogant people here are wearing thin but, frankly, so is this entire community. I'll leave this thread alone now as it no longer interests me.

I now understand! See my incredible diagram for my brainwave. Sorry for destroying everyone's faith in humanity.

(LFSW is the Earth, and the two forum members are pulling the blue string tightly at two parts of the earth)

Quote from Shotglass :are all of the clips like that? the only real hazard was the driver whos stupid enough to pull into the left lane
so i presume since we didnt see a video of his/her conception its impossible to click the moment you see a hazard develop?

I think that was just an example one made by someone else with a camera in their car. The real videos have a camera mounted on the roof, with decent drivers.

I'm amazed there'll be no dedi servers. The crappiness is clearly shown in the console versions where hits take >0.25 secs to register.

Quote from Migz :I dont even understand how it could be the red one, so i voted for blue.
Surely if i was to do this on a smaller scale, and just put some string around a small globe light thing, then the string would touch the whole way around. So why would it magically float?

Quote from mcintyrej :
if you pulled this string tight,

I think this is the key point, which is why it shouldn't touch the ground. I really want someone to do this now...

Wow, this is an interesting one. But surely red would be correct because it's standard string-pulling, just on a larger scale.

Quote from 5haz :
Don't think that independant television doesn't churn out some serious profits too. In '08 ITV made a net profit of over 2 Billion, hardly strapped for cash.


Don't make up stats. 2 billion is an utterly outrageous figure. Think about dividing that figure by 10, and you might get close. [EDIT, you edited your post to say income]

This is just one example of where ITV are struggling. Also, they're having to cut the majority of their local broadcasting, and could possibly get some of what they call 'top slicing' of the TV licence fee. No matter what you say, commercial TV is in trouble and the BBC is indeed far too big for its boots. Yes, it makes decent enough TV, but we need competition if this quality is to continue. Or we'll just end up with Strictly Come Dancing for eternity.

That's bad news, guys. I'm sorry it didn't work out. While it lasted, I had a great time with Storm Servers. Thanks!

I took my HP test about 10 months ago, and as far as I can remember you click as soon as the object in question is going to cause you to change speed or direction. So, in that clip you would click as soon as the lorry was in view.

For a ped crossing the road, you'd click as soon as they appear to start to move to cross the road, like the turn of their head or a change of direction.

But yeah, the most crucial thing is knowing the object will make you change speed or direction.

Quote from lamerr :
Hm am I The only one who is a bit pissed off at Webber?? I mean his move on Raikkonen was really dirty, I thought he deserved a DT for changing his line twice and forcing Kimi off the road!

It looked quite bad from the external camera, but from the on-board it looked like a typical first lap incident, not really anyone's fault. Real shame that it ruined Kimi's race. He could have won this race!

Quote from lamerr :

Kobayashi drove like a real racer unlike Grosjean, what a scared little boy, everybody passed him lol..

I think there was something wrong with his car. There were bits falling off it on the lap he was getting passed by everyone. But yes, he was less than impressive today!
