  1. Holy funk! :huh: That video is crazy! It puts the earlier one I've seen to shame already :lol: Just when you think you've seen it all... some of the hugest gaps on the planet conquered right there.

    Hats off indeed...

  2. My fiancee bought it for me, at £580 I think! I was so suprised when I heard the price as the last time I checked the price a while back it was approaching a grand :wub:

    Having a press pass is gonna be great :) Still pending yet, but they seem really good about it. And yeah, outdoor will help in terms of lighting seeing that I cant afford a Nikon Speedlight by then, so only have my incompatible flashgun.. Although the sync on it is pretty good.

    Cheers guys :-

  3. Hopefully my good shots will now come to life with my shiny new Nikon D70! My last camera was holding me back a little as I needed crisper shots with less noise.

    Anyhow! I'm happy! So now I can make good use of me press pass at The Bike Show when that comes around (hopefully) :-

    Check the example shot... that's unedited, just had the copyright added to prevent it from being stolen. I couldn't believe how sharp and clean the image was... so yeah, I'm happy.... I'll shut up now. :wub:

  4. I'm taking my fiancee to Dublin for Valentines weekend! :wub:

    Going on Friday coming back Monday... It was initially to take her to see her fave group in their home town (*cough*Westlife*cough*) as it has been her life long dream... or seomthing.

    But I though I'd make a romantic weekend out of it. Should be good! :-

  5. Just a curious thought here more than anything, as I know that riders listen to all sorts :)

    Me myself... I just love Metal! And was just wondering if anyone else let such heavy musical bliss tickle your ear drums? I tend to find that a lot of metal is much better written and composed than other genres (with the exception of prog rock, w00t!) creating blissful harmonies and flow within music. A few of my faves include Iron Maiden, Helloween, Hammerfall, Bal Sagoth, Symphony X, Sonata Artica, Dream Theater (prog) and Opeth (Y)

    So all ye beings with heads of metal, make yourselves better known and stand forward. :blink:

  6. This is my personal fave of my photos, which loads of people love to have as their wallpaper, thought you might appreciate it too :blink: Excuse the low quality, I had to lower it to fit it on PhotoBucket unfortunately. If anyone wants it in full quality or at a higher resolution, don't be afraid to PM me! (Y)

  7. Seems that people are bordering along the rough truth here, so here goes:

    Obviously you have disabled your previous onboard graphics in Windows in order to set your new card as the Primary Display Adaptor. Yes?

    The reason that nothing comes up is simple. There is no signal. Why? Because your graphics card is not the primary display adaptor. But why is this if you've already disabled your old on in Windows? Well, only in Windows is it set to as your display device, not in the BIOS at startup.

    To sort out this minor niggle start it up WITHOUT the graphics card in, and hit [DEL] to enter the BIOS settings. Under the chipset features menu (or similar) you should be able to find an option to DISABLE the onboard graphics. Disable them and if necessary enable your AGP slot. Save/exit BIOS. Now switch off your computer, pop your new card in and restart! All is good!

    :(
