First backup your dds folder. Then overwrite the original files in the dds folder with what you downloaded. Then it has to work.

Ahh man, I really wanted to race in this! Can you make it on a Saturday please? 7PM BST is like 2PM eastern time here in north america, everyone's at work/school at that time!

6 laps? that's it? when I first read this I thought it would be like 20-30 laps, with 6 laps the race will be over in less than 10 minutes, not worth the $5 entry fee imo, I could just play poker instead and have more fun in 10 minutes.

It's ironic you're posting that on the LFS forum amp! (LFS uses only a single core lol)

Amp, do you need a better cooler for the overclocked 4850e? I'm using the stock one that came with the CPU, how well do you think it would cope with a little overclocking? Right now my temps are fairly low thanks to good airflow in the case and the fact that I don't have any power-hungry devices in there, I'm just running the onboard Radeon 3300 from my 790GX board and a hard drive, and the CPU, that's about it.

I'm just giving you a heads up, don't expect too much from it or you'll be disappointed.

Is owning a racetrack still a profitable business? Until it becomes unprofitable, there's no need for track owners to go out of their way to market their tracks.

Don't go for the Athlon X2 4850e, I have one and it's really weak . Get a Phenom II.

Corolla all the way, it's a car which will not break down. Mine has over 220,000 km on it and still going strong, with all the original parts. If you maintain it properly (regular oil changes and such) it will last for a long long time.

Try the one included in this pack.

Are you using the latest driver from the Logitech site or the driver on the CD?

Seriously, if you're gonna spend 8 months on something, at least do something useful like making a replacement for the CTRA servers. Instead you guys made another cruise server, don't we have enough of them already?

What's the resolution of your TV? This could be a simple problem of mismatched resolutions. The Windows boot screen is at (I believe) 640x480 resolution. But if, once Windows has loaded, the resolution is set to something higher it can't possibly display. I say you connect a normal monitor to your computer and set the Windows resolution to 640x480, and then connect it back to your TV and see if it shows anything.

There's no such thing "Designed for Vista", it's just a marketing phrase used by Microsoft. A laptop can either run Windows or not. The version of Windows is irrelevant. Your friend doesn't know what he's doing because if you can run Vista on a laptop then you can easily format the hard drive and install XP on it.

FlatOut 1, do the demolition derby lol.

What protection system? I bought a new laptop a couple months age and it came with Vista. I then put the Windows XP install CD in and booted from it, and I was able to install it without any problems. Any new laptop will be able to run Windows XP, and if it can run Windows Vista then for sure it will be able to handle Windows 7.

Windows 7 Release Candidate: April 10, 2009

I guess we did use the same base picture for the lights, though I was never able to find it again. Sorry, it's just that people have taken my dds file and claimed it as their own before. I posted it first, so I get the right to question anybody who's using it. But if you have the original picture that's fine.

Here's mine btw http://www.lfsforum.net/showthread.php?t=45905

Those headlights look awfully familiar spenter. PLEASE CREDIT ME WHEN YOU USE MY STUFF!!! You steal my headlights and you claim YOU made them? Come on man... They're not even Honda lights, they're BMW lights.

Quote from danthebangerboy :

The search is never very good for me. No matter what i search for i just get a random list of recent topics that have nothing to do with what i was looking for.


The auto search feature when making a new thread is very good and always spot on!

A BIG +1 to that.

Victor, can you please make the actual Search feature as good as the auto search that happens when you make a new thread? I've given up trying to use the Search feature and just use the New Thread search as it works much better.

Then all I can say is look at the following list and buy whatever you can afford. The mobility video cards are numbered similar to desktop cards, but obviously they don't offer as much performance, so just get an geforce 9600 or 9800, or Radeon 3870.

Simple yet effective, I like them. That's what the stock XR taillights SHOULD look like, not like the crap that's currently included in LFS.

Not possible. The brightest you can make them is to paint them white. But they won't shine out like that, that's just impossible in LFS at the moment.

If you can get your hands on this baby you should definitely get it. The Mobility Radeon 4570 is gonna be sweet!

I say you should start saving money for a new computer rather than throwing money at your old one. I did that for too many years and the computer in question never really got any better. On the other hand, another 2GB of RAM would definitely give you an instant boost in everything, so that's the only upgrade I recommend, particularly since RAM is very cheap these days.
