1. DDz Quorum B16Enk Posted July 4, 2007 1. DDz Quorum Report Share Posted July 4, 2007 Very first thing to try is a CMOS reset, often this will clear such a fault. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1. DDz Quorum B16Enk Posted July 4, 2007 1. DDz Quorum Report Share Posted July 4, 2007 Dig your manual up, the CMOS reset may just be a case of unplugging mains lead, moving a jumper (usually found in close proximity to the CMOS Battery) from pins 1 & 2 to 2 & 3 for a few seconds, then putting it back on pins 1 & 2 and re - applying power. Some boards however require battery removal, and/or leaving the jumper on for a 30 minute period (on really awkward ones). My system is still a little suspect, this 2nd hand board will light up when power is applied. But won't jump into life for up to five minutes after the button has been pressed, a bit like me in the mornings except quicker! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Enforcer57 Posted July 5, 2007 Report Share Posted July 5, 2007 You coulda gotten around all that by just doing the American remedy....hit it with a hammer. and you blokes going to Aingland, I just reckon you better dang well take a camera and get some good pix. Remember, prop planes in flight need a 1/250th shutter speed to not freeze the props. Get the sun behind you if you can, and stand facing the runway and Pivot your body as they fly past....pan with em damn it. And an iso speed adjustment of 400 is usually the best, though with digital jobs iso 200 is ok usually. I need to put a sticky on here about taking aircraft photos.
