fruitbat

all is good in the world again, reinstalled driver and software for the x52, and now it picks up my profile again. Changed all the bios settings back to how they should be, kinda reluctant to try to run ntune again....

i hadn't tuned anything, just started it for the very first time, after installing lol. Now for some reason, i can't get my bloody x52 profile to recognise. Once thats sorted, i'll be ready to fly again....

muhhahahahahhahaha, Its alive Thanks rog, fired up straight away. Now that leads to a question, why did it happen in the first place. I had just installed ntune, could that be the reason?

hi rog. Looking in the motherboard manuel, in the jumpers section, i can only see Clear RTC RAM. it says this clears the CMOS memory of date time and system setup parameters. Is this the thing to do, or just take out the battery? By the way, its an asus P6T deluxe board. cheers kev

well phoned them up this morning, and they were really helpful, and they're picking it up on tuesday. so i'll just have to wait after that. Might see if i can get my old machine running just to pass the time, but i can't be bothered to download UP for it. least i'll be able to abuse you all on teamspeak then, lol.

tried different monitor etc, and its not even getting to the bios beeps etc All that happens when i turn it on, no matter how little is plugged in, even nothing, is that the fans all power up as normal, the lights all come on, but it just sits there. looking at the link toad linked, no beeps does indeed suggest power. the company i bought it from is these guys, and they've got a pretty good rep, http://www.pcspecialist.co.uk/ The comp is 1 and a half years old into a 2 year warrenty (glad i went for that extra year now). The warrenty is free pick up and return, so thats no hassle from my point of view, and i've made sure that i've not done anything to invalidate it, so all is good from that point of view. Will be phoning then up first thing tomorrow, now i've loacated all the paperwork. I'll be back on your six sometime, just a matter of time i guess.

don't thinik its not the psu, when i turn it on, all the flashy lights come on, fans spin up etc, but the monitor doesn't pick up that its turned on, so i'm thinking maybe GFX card? unplugged everything, execpt monitor and keyboard, same, unpulgged absolutly everything, still the same, doesn't even beep at me?

bugger it. my comp is refusing to boot up, not even getting anywhere, no beeps no nothing. Still its in warrenty, and will be calling them first thing tomorrow, to pick it up and fix it, but will not be able to fly for the forseeable future bollocks.

that works for me. I think i should of paid more attention to how i worded my last post though, to 'where can i download the codec needed' rather than getting you to redo the vid, but thanks for that, and the vids real nice Just watched your spitfire vid :bow: nice skills

hmm, i don't appear to have a codec to watch it, any suggestions?

good luck with getting access to the saitek forums. I've tried to register there several times, and they just don't seem to like me

can you find out if its usb, as some of the older ones are gameport. If its usb and all in working order, i'm interested.

lastnight, a few of us were flying one of Snackos MDS missions, and someone noticed this by the side of the runway,

love the last photo arthur

no french guy doing commentary, thats all i ask should be really good fun, although i foresee a few more prangs than at duxford

ho ho ho what a collection of reprobates!

have a look here for some more 'acoustic mirrors', can still see these on the south coast in england, http://www.andrewgrantham.co.uk/soundmirrors/

haha, friar's no longer the tallest Dog.... Met you on sat lobster, you'll fit right in, happy flying

What an absolutely bloody fantastic weekend Really nice to meet everyone, the evenings and atmosphere in the pub were brilliant, the airshow was a nice bonus as well (and a pretty good one at that!) Can't wait to do it again next year!!!

in 30 mins, fruitbat will be rolling, estimated eta, 2.5 hours

couple of years ago, and before i'd worked out how to stop photobucket resizing my stuff . Think i've got the originals on my old comps hardrive still, will have to check it out later.

Hi all, i was just looking through my photobucket account and 're-found' these photos i took yonks ago, at the museum at Manston (which is free to go around), and thought you guys might be interested in them, so without further ado,
