I would also like to know how to find out the driver version for the chipset.
And also is there anyway to find the Driver version for everything in a list so I can find out what I need to update? (the device manager is no help)

I done a triple boot with Windows Xp (main OS I use), Windows Media Center and Windows Vista. When I got board with vista I formatted the partition it was on and gave the rest of the room to my Windows Media Center partition.

The only problem I have now is that I still have the new vista boot manager. It annoys me because before I used to turn on the PC and would load the default Windows XP OS. But now It goes to the Vista boot manager which it defaultly loads Vista which is not there no more. So I have to select Windows XP to then get to the Windows XP Boot manager which loads Win XP.

All in all I just want to get rid of the vista boot manager somehow so everything goes back to normal.

If anyone can help with my problem, it would be much appricated

lol, but you can adjust it all to your personal prefrence. Dont like something, change it I think is the perfect motto.
LFS open source. Sounds good to me.

..exactly; not only are ian's materials weird.. (ie: glass reflecting a vibrant blue) he also doesnt give much variability to who uses it; if you have brazil woop de doo.. you can use a not so great scene to show off your skin (which if thats all your doing that for, thats fine)

but otherwise.. you cant really do anything with his scenes
but dont be expecting him much anymore, hes gone 100% rFactor

Not variable?

Thats what we said about a ghost car in LFS.

The best way to put is that it is highly unlikly unless Kegety is able to do it or wants to do it

Quote from Matrixi :

Even though it would be 700+ Mb, I think it would be quite cool to have an option to have those high quality textures. Just having another packet to download if you wanted them. People with low-end systems wouldn't have to download it of course but the lucky ones with high-end systems could just download the high-res texture add-on package and be happy

I have also found that everything works ok with the fxo gtr and I have changed all the , into . in the files.

Quote from Hyperactive :

How's the precision compared to your old ones? Worth the money?

My old pedals was my Driving Force Pro. As alot of you know, the only way to get some real precision on the brake pedal was to use a squash ball.
Well since the brake pedal on my new pedals has a nice big spring about 1/4 of the way down the travel, you can be alot more precise.

The other thing that makes them better is they are top hinged, just like a cars pedals, and it really does make it feel more realistic.

In my Opinion I think they were worth every penny of my money.

Another thing I forgot to mention was the ability to adjust the travel of the pedals if you know what your doing with all the screws you can do up or un-do to your taste, but if you do it, then dont do it to much or you could risk over stroking the pots.

First off, sorry about the quality of the pictures, the only means of pics was from my mobile.

The Packaging:


As you can see from the picture, it comes in a rather attractive cardboard box, good idea I think as it saves costs and time.


Inside was this, again well rapped and taped to make sure it gets here safely. Another job for the scissors. They are also very lightweight and compacted to keep the postage costs down.

In the rapping is this:


3 extra springs free. So if you ever snap one, you can replace them and not have to get 1 shipped all the way from New Zealand and pay all the diffrent costs invovled.


The game port plug that is used by the pedals. There is a choice before you buy, weather you want the games port plug or USB. My advice would be to go for the Usb as the game port can be a bit jumpy at times. But if you do decide to go for the game port connection and later decide you want to go to USB, you can always purchase a gameport to USB adapter.

Another added extra is the amount of cable that comes with the pedals which is a big bonus if you wish to use them in a cockpit away from your computer.


Here are the pedals all set-up. To set them up is not hard at all, just a matter of flipping down two support legs, screw them up and plug it in. There is also 2 holes for the legs for different angles which are down to you personal preference.

How the pedals feel under the foot:
They feel nice and solid and reassurance of pedals that could last without having to keep on buying replacements. The throttle and clutch pedal has a nice smooth travel with a nice amount of resistence. The brake pedal feels great under foot, especially when you get to the spring, that’s when you can really get your braking perfect.

Pros
Nice Solid feel
Easy to setup
A solid back plate that will take any pressure you put on it.
Nigel Nichols is a great bloke that makes them and offers a lot of support.
Cons
The brake spring takes quite a bit of effort to get to the max point
A bit loud when you get carried away with all the metal hitting metal

Overall I would give it a 9 out of 10. The whole system feels great and works very well. Very well made

Quote from [RCG]Boosted :

erm...just a question...what does this program do??
and how to use it?
huh, i tried to start it but it says:
run time error 339
component comdlg32.ocx or one of its dependencies not correctly registered: a file is missing or invalid


....so? whats up with that?

The program modifies diffrent values of the car you select. SO you could put something like a V10 lump in it
download this:
http://www.ascentive.com/support/new/images/lib/COMDLG32.OCX
and put that and macanik in your LFS folder

Edit: works with the LFS 0.5P Demo
Does not work with 0.5P2, 0.5P3 or 0.5P5
