  1. To those who missed it in the CB, click here and jump to 42m to watch some cool tduck exposure and a cracking opening race in Season 4 of the AOR GT3 Elite champio Twitch
  2. Giving your thread a descriptive title might increase your chances slightly. Post a video demonstrating your current method and results so any experts around know where to start with helping.
  3. Before a game is released = hopefully just enough time to fix said issues, I guess. While there's time there's hope.
  4. Well at least with no interest there's no critiquing my singing
  5. That's really sad. Did they not have sustainable plans for their next game to be delivered within a year or two? I guess this is the risk/cost of supporting an existing game so well for so long.
  6. Invest the time and blank disk to make a live boot CD/DVD such as Hirens Recovery. Basically gives you a mini Windows XP that runs from CD (and RAM) and comes with many diagnostic and recovery tools. If it boots up just fine AND you can access your HDDs without issue then there's a good chance you're not looking at a complete hardware failure. Perhaps a bad HDD sector where a boot/system file was stored at worst. In case of obvious partial mechanical HDD failure, it's better to attempt to recover files by taking a complete disk image rather than copy individual files. This keeps the additional wear rate low as the read is performed sequentially, not randomly. If you don't have a recovery disk with you can try any bootable CD/DVD/Floppy as a last resort to see if the PC boots. i.e. use the Windows OS DVD/USB and try launching Startup repair. Likely you have a BIOS/UEFI setting adjusted to automatically reboot on error rather than pause at the error message. I had a boot SSD dye catastrophically with no warning when I manually rebooted after installing updates. Decided to just replace it and start from scratch. I only have Windows and a few programs/games on C:\ which means I basically lost nothing, besides time and $$$.
  7. Bad news! To be fair, we were never expecting a full game for free. Which is good, because based on this info and past Forza experiences on console I doubt I'd play this for more than a couple of hours. bsimracing
  8. A little adventure from last year. The weather forecast looked awful. I was expecting to receive a cancellation SMS... but so were they. So uh, we just went for it. 5 hours to see some mates and 5 hours back the same day. Click ^ for video I was struggling to hold my head up (the wind was mostly doing that for me, thanks to um, plenty of room to twist my wrist. Fortunately one of my favourite roads was on the horizon, ready to wake me up.
  9. I was only hoping Ham would struggle more to pass Ric given how long it took him to get ahead of team TR. Maybe down to tyres.
  10. Clarkson wasn't the only one with a posh accent back in the day
  11. I couldn't buy a new car. I don't earn enough to afford depreciation. The Golf R's I'm looking at have already lost half their original value. Even my car is probably worth half what I paid for it (+ add-ons/mods). Do any of us here own a 'brand new' car anyway? - that was purchased by oneself, not using the parent fund.
  12. I'd take a look, but it's a coupe. An APR Stage 1 Mk6 Golf R (second hand) would tempt me, or if I de-carbon the intake manifold in my car and get some new performance (Audi R8) coils I could probably hang onto my car for a bit longer. The only thing that could tempt me to get a new Mustang is if it were a bargain (it won't be down here) and if it had a great interior with nice infotainment tech, etc.
  13. You'll have to poke me on Steam if you want to play something. I'm not really checking this site that much, and often not going back through the archives. NB I leave my office PC 24/7 sometimes so I may appear online when out or asleep.

  14. Other side of the argument: Tim Sweeney is missing the point; the PC platform needs fixing | Ars Technica
  15. BMW’s concept car celebrates 100th birthday, flexible bodywork | Ars Technica
  16. Or just buy a syringe from the hardware store
  17. Excellent finish to Race 2
