To add to this S.O.R.I stands for Sexual Offences Research Initiative...........nice. Is there something you aint telling us Nick?

I wouldn't want to put a price on it, because I would be biased! By the way, PM me first when you decide how much you want for it!

Spokes on both wheels, or just one?

Like I said though, I like a difficult project! And it's only for messing about on. It's a slow process! And about the crank, I think its on it's way out anyway.......clicking on the left. Looks like its moving slightly, and it can only get worse! I'm a right pain!

Well here we go, feel free to laugh and take the .......... all you want!!!! I don't care! So there it is in all its glory! I did warn you! Spec is: Barracuda Subway frame (or equivalent (multibranded)) Tranz-X Stem (halfords!) Club Roost grips (well worn) Generic bars Shimano Deore Easy Shifters? Magura Hs33s front and rear Magura red pads Maxima Tracer crank Deore LX rear mech Mavic D521 rims front and rear Shimano Deore LX hubs Vuelta 1.95 tyres (shocking I know) Victor VP-565 pedals Kona Project 2 forks Generic Seatpost Seat nicked off my old £60 Brand new Parallax MTB bike Think thats it......... And before you ask, the dogs name is Roobarb And I included a pic of my kids because they rock. All clever little sods, and I'm well proud of them!!!!

My laptop didn't meet the minimum specs for NFS undercover, but i still played it, and it ran fine on the lower settings? Guidelines aren't the be all and end all.

I do believe the waters have become slightly muddied as to the original question, so here it is plain and simple: Yes, your Laptop with play the game, but you will have to reduce the settings to such an extent that you will not get the most out of the game. Therefore, in my opinion, it would be a waste of money. Thats me done! Please note that I am in no way getting at any other comments placed on this thread.

What if you got both? Is that just greedy? NBA Jam on the megadrive was awesome!

You will not be disappointed! I promise! I still say it's as much fun now as it was back then.

@ Orgun Donor - laptop components and casings are pretty much standard throughout the range, so he could e-mail his manufacturer and ask the question. I know with my Dell they have a list of specific upgrades that I can add to my laptop. The case may already have the required fans etc to add a graphics card? correct me if I'm wrong please? Also, I stand by my opinion that Goldeneye rocked! Still got my N64 somewhere, and it's always good fun!

Sorry dude, didn't notice the sizes! http://www.winstanleysbikes.co.uk/product/...D_Pro_Bike_2009 You need to have a gander round the site, they have one of the most comprehensive ranges I know of, and as you have seen, they still have the older bikes in, which can be a lot cheaper. The Duster I sent you the first link for....this years model is £1199, so your saving naerly 30% buying the 2007 model. Link above.....I personally really like! As for frame size, it depends on how much the seat would have to be lifted, and how you prefer to ride. My friend always bought the next size down frame: I think it was so he was farther away from the frame! But he used to have his seat quite low for XC. You really need to sit on a few.

I have to agree with Krisboats on some points. Goldeneye was a breakthrough in multiplayer gaming, giving more depth and adaptability than any other game at that time. This is why it was so popular. Going back and playing it now is fine for reminiscing and for a laugh, but it has been superceded and expanded upon by almost every other multiplayer game out there. As for Call of Duty, I wouoldn't even try. I got NFS Undercover for my laptop, with the recommended Vista benchmark set at 5.3. The minimum benchmark was 4.3, and mine was only 4.0 My laptop has a 256mb card in, but only a 3450, so after turning basically all the graphics settings off, and changing the res to 800x600, I could play it. It looked pretty dreadful to be honest, and every time AVG ran its scheduled scan at 12, the game died! I'd spend your bit of cash on a graphics card if you really want to play the game, because reducing the graphics down takes away the wow factor. You will sit there playing it wondering what it would be like, and pick faults with the graphics all day. Saying that, this is just my opinion which I thought I would share with you. Good luck!

At this moment in time I have no means of getting the pics on the comp, as I'm not at home. Will post some pics later on today, but be warned! It's a tank!

http://www.winstanleysbikes.co.uk/product/...er_Hi_Bike_2007 Two year old spec (but really good), looks awesome and would also leave you some change to tweak and add accessories.......like a decent pair of gloves!

Cheers for the link!!!! According to that I'm halfway there already......riser bars, flat pedals, rigid forks and mags. Have lowered the seat as much as I can, but as a commute I do need to sit down without it being too uncomfortable.........I'm 6'1"!!!!! I need to sort out my crank, as it's still the original 24 speed, so was thinking of single cog at the front? I don't really use the other two anyway. I also need to remove some links out of my chain, because it is slacker than the preverbial! Oh, and a beefy tyre for the rear, was thinking a 2.35? Cheers Nickkkkk
