Quote from franky500 :CPW is when you get caught by the Cheat Protection system. so if you want to play online in LFS you will need to take off any cheats / hacks you may be using.

dimex35 - Did doing that fix your problem?

Just because you didn't get a replay doesn't mean no one saw it, it means no one knows the answer or doesn't want to help. Don't repost just cause no one answered, you can bump the orginal post by replying to it yourself or try harder to look for the answer yourself.

There is also a WHEELS section to this forum as well - http://www.lfsforum.net/forumdisplay.php?f=15 - DON'T REPOST THERE!

There is also www.google.com as well, first result - http://forum.racesimcentral.com/showthread.php?t=299371

Quote from hyntty :So? You're not seriously trying to argue that Hatemelolmania doesn't exist on ITV? Aren't all commentators a little biased?

That's true, most of the stuff James Allen says about Hamilton just makes it more difficult for him cause you end up getting sick of him constantly talking about Hamilton comparing him to Senna, Like he did al the way through the Monaco GP.
Quote from Crommi :Matter of the fact is, I don't think Hamilton would have attempted pass like that if there was graveltrap instead of smooth surface to drive through.

You can say the same thing about all the F1 drivers.

Hamilton is not the only F1 driver to do all of the things he has done/said or make mistakes. Most of the negative stuff said about Hamilton always makes it out as though he is the only driver to ever do whatever it is they are talking about.

I dunno what it is that grates people so much, Casey Stoner gets the same kind of thing and I don't really understand why.

OK, if you don't like racing sims any more cause you've done some real driving and the racing sims aren't real then there really isn't anything anyone can say so.....bye, bye.

Everyone goes through phases of loving/liking/not liking/bored of playing LFS.

And buying the game, then leaving...DOH! First thing is no one cares if you leave, there is no need to tell everyone (sorry to be harsh). And second, you haven't even been playing the full game, you've got bored of the demo.....3 years! God damn.

The full game offers more in terms of more actual content and more things to do, leagues, teams more racing.

AMD's are cheaper.....and thats about it.

If you have to go AMD then the 9850 is the only choice, the rest are beaten by Intel, just read some reviews of any of the E8xxx series or even the E6750 or E6850 and you'll see no AMD really comes close.

It's always worth getting a top of the range card, for games the graphics card the most important part and is where I'd be looking to spend as much money as I could.

Taking advice is good and I'll take all the info I can get from friends and ppl here but you also need to do some more detailed research for yourself. Read some comparison tests and reviews to get a better idea of what you want and what you're looking for so you can make your own mind up and learn what you're getting and why.

The 9850 is the QUAD AMD should have brought out in the first place, it's the only one that can even try and compete with Intel's. And it's the only AMD worth getting if you're looking forward.

I don' think Hamilton hit Alonso. Alonso just did that jerk move on the steering wheel when he saw Hamilton was there.

The Damage to Vettels car was from Button.

Amp all you seem to want is Hamilton to be given a penalty no matter what he does.

Quote from Xaid0n :I'm going to be sticking with XP for now, Vista seems a bit too slow by what I've seen... But I could be completely wrong...

Everyone has a different opinion on Vista, most of the negatives just haven't given it time or haven't even tried it.

When I swapped over I liked it, then you have a bit of a dip because everything is different to XP and you have to learn where things are and how things work, once you've got past that you'll love it.

If you're getting a new system and DX10 card then there is really only one way to go.

Do you have 2 harddrives or is it a partition on 1 drive?

Just right click on the drive you want to format and click format.

You have no idea what has been said in private between the 2 drivers.

And as you've said before, I don't think there are many F1 drivers or any other motorsport drivers where they will admit to making a mistake.

There isn't much you can do apart from dropping LFS to it's lowest settings, which you've done. Don't forget draw distance and dynamic LOD (0 for best look, 1 for best performance), the AA will gain the the most IF you have it on.

Could try and make sure programs that aren't needed are killed, laptops can also run low power modes where certain bits of hardware are turned down, so double check everything is fully running.

LMAO! This fits in with General LFS Discussion how?

There is an Off Topic section but seen as you are in capable of reading then you might have trouble finding it.

If you do find it and if you post again, use a thread title that tells people what the thread is about, it really helps.

p.s. You are rubbish at using an internet forum.

I've had Vista x64 for not even 2 weeks yet!!!

I don't know if you can make it look like XP but it can go back to looking like previous versions. You just right click on the toolbar, properties and then customize the settings. I like Vista you just have to get used to it.

Make Vista look like XP...kind of - http://www.cnettv.com/9742-1_53-25854.html

Just change the theme or colours to make it look how you want. Right click on the desktop and then Personalize.

Thats the user account control. Turning that off was the first thing I did when I got Vista.

Quote from Migz :And is vista really worth getting it? My dad has it and i dont see anything performance wise thats better, to me it just seems like a pile of shniz. And it constantly asks you if you want to move a file!!!! |:| Which is really annoying because sometimes im trying to move lots of files and if vista keeps asking if i want to move the files ill go mad lol.

When you start to copy stuff and it asks you want to do there is a tick box option to apply to all so you don't have to keep doing that.

If you're getting a new system and a DX10 card then you really have to go with Vista.

I see you took my advice about informative thread titles and posting in the relevant sections of the forum.

You haven't posted any replay or video.

To make things go easier for you I would suggest:

Better thread titles that actually say what your post is about.
No multiple posts about he same thing.
Posting subjects in the correct section, there are sections for setups, skins, help and many more.
Drifting tips advice or questions would be best sort from a dedicated lfs drift website. LFS is a racing sim and no matter what people think there are certain things that do not mix well here (drifting and cruising) and normally end up with the thread being locked.
Use the search function, I guarantee any questions or ideas you have will already have been asked and answered a million times over.

I don't mean to jump on you with all this but it will save you a lot of problems in the future.

I've gone to Vista x64 (got 4gig of RAM) as well and not had any major problems. Like Jakg said, spend 30 minutes on a few Vista tweak sites and you'll be much better off and learn a few things.

I had slight issues with my wireless pci card and connection but it's all sorted now.

Did you even read this link you were given?

You could also have downloaded old style named setups which will not show up and why that renaming software was made.
