would love all the rest of the suggestions, especially an immediate engine blow if overreved, but random failures are a big no no imho, it would make the game extremely frustrating and annoying

it seems i cant do anything, not worthwhile anyway the P4 HT seems best you can get with the system which i have, ah well, looks like il have to shell out for a new mobo soon. cheers guys

*opens google tab.........*

sweet as, thanks guys i just hardwired my laptop to the new desktop and it worked

thanks for the help jakg, so i wonder where i can find this out?? i checked with CPU-Z, and the mobo came up as a DELL OF8096. chipset - intel i945G/GZ but i googled this and came up with nothing if i called DELL could they tell me i wonder, or would they frown upon messing with their machines?

Quote from G!NhO :

you have to look at the socket i think, it has a 775LGA socket so look for a CPU with the same socket.

thanks for the reply, so is that all i need to know? surely theres more to it?

hi guys,
just hoping to get some helpful advice on an upgraded CPU for my machine. i know a bit about computers, but not enough to know will a certain CPU fit my motherboard so i was hoping someone could help me out

my specs are as follows

dell 22" LCD monitor
Dell GX620 Tower.
2.8Ghz Pentium4 HT CPU 775LGA socket
2gb of Crucial DDR2 BallistiX TRACER PC6400 RAM.
0GB SATA drive.(500GB external)
nvidia 8800GTS overclocked
Antec 500watt PSU

if anyone could point me in the right direction of a cpu upgrade that would be great, cheers!

hi guys,
quick question im sure someone here will answer easily, just got a new PC, do i have to D/L the whole LFS again and just log in, and regarding sets/skins, save all sets etc to external harddrive and transfer them into the relative folders on the new pc?

cheers !

cheers

looks good, a good wheel does make a big difference tho for drifting, ive a nardi on one car with very little dish, and a keys racing wheel on my ae86 with mega dish, totally different driving feel. i like the look of it too

so we've got the actual pc cooling thing sorted, any tips graphics wise?? will any of te LOD settings help? like i said i have clouds, flags etc turned off

cheers dudes !

heres the cooler i bought

Cheers nikimere, i will try that later, but to be safe already bought a cooler. better safe than sorry. i have never cleaned my fan before, and the laptop is over a year old so i can imagine it is fluffed up.
last night when we were racing on ky i could barely touch the undersid of the computer

p.s i also need a laptop, and my bro races on the desktop

cool, that heat would be one of the factors of the fps dying off though am i right? i once wrapped an ice pack in towel and put it under the laptop and it helped alot. im going to buy a cooler i think, the keyboard even gets roasting

hoping someone here can help

i play lfs on a dell inspiron laptop, i dont have all the specs here, but on single player i get about 60ish fps, online usually 40ish until my laptop overheats and it drop dramatically sometimes to 12 or 10! now from reading previous threads a cooler is a must so im of to get one asap.

the question is, is there any other tips graphics wise i can do to bump up the fps in any way? i have sky turned off, and turning off anti virus helped too, is there anything else i can do?? i assume i can get upgraded cards etc for my laptop?

cheers!!

sorry dudes i thought i posted a pic

ok cheers thanks for that

i thought that but arrows dont work for me. do i have to configure them to it?

i was about to ask this, how do you adjust the brake balance and arb in car?

Quote from danowat :

What setup are you using?, pre-patch S setups will not work the same as they did in the old version, not only do the tyres need more pressure, but also require a lot more camber than before.

Dan,

yeah im just using my setups from pre patch with more pressure. didnt touch the camber, how much u talking regards to camber dan?

yeah i nearly had to double the pressures to get the XFR to be stable through the flat out chicane at AS club. it feels like im drving on 145/60 €40 tyres illepall
i think they distort too much with the mod, especially on the XFR when it has racing slicks
