I finally got the computer I've been waiting on for 3 1/2 weeks. I guess dell finally decided I shouldn't have to wait any longer. I have two questions that maybe one of you can help me with.

1. I have the LCD monitor what do I have to do to use the digital option there is no connection for on the back of the computer.

2. How do I put a picture on the board under my sig using the board as a hoast.

Apreciate any help.,

So, there is no 15pin, 3 row cable or connector on the TFT display? And you do not have a special digital-out video card in your computer? Who sold you the package?

Some time back, you uploaded a pic to the member area (click on members, select yourself, and press "edit" beneath the picture shown - after entering username and password, you will be forwarded to a form you can upload a picture with - if you do not want it displayed on your member profile, deselect the little checkmark ...) After that, just put a regular image link in your sig, to get the correct URL, click on the picture on the above edit page... it will look something like [ img]http://fbodyeurope.org/gallery/12_filename.jpg[ /img]

I ordered the whole unit through Dell. The screen is a viewe Sonic flat screen it has two conections in the back video 1 and video 2 the cables both look different. Acording to dell one is for Digital and the other is for analog. I have it connected on the analog port it seems as though dell did'nt put the digital video card in the unit.

Is there a noticable difference between analog and digital? Appreciate the help Garry

Shouldn't be too much of a difference ... as long as you do indeed get a picture, and it's stable ... :)

I've tried everything but this picture just won't come up. I put it in there the same way you said but it only wants to show words.

You forgot to put the leading "[ img]" in (without the space). Corrected that, works fine ...

Another wise guy:) I wish I did steel it but I guess being honest gets you a couple G's less in the piggy bank. As far as the car goes I'm getting dave's block off of him and doing a rebuild on it. I'm purchasing the AFR Stage 2 LT4 and the ported intake to match. Once I get everything back together and running good I'm going to throw on a 8psi blower, wich should most definatly cover the power I will be losing from not doing the 383 and then some. After talking with my wife I've decided just to go this route that way when I go back stateside I can just buy the 383 and put it without worrying about buying heads, intake and etc... I should be sitting over 500hp still with the blower on the car this should be enough to satisfy my lead foot for a while (notice I said a while). How about you how much longer do you have in the sand dunes.
