Why don't you just upgrade to IE7?

I tried that but it's hugely unstable on the win 2k platform.

Before anybody suggests upgrading the OS the only XP disc I have is a cut down version supplied with my laptop ..... seriously unstable if used with any other board.

With Vista not being compatable with any software I use I'm stuck till I can afford to do a full system upgrade .... which at this rate will be about 2028 .....

Aye, I wouldn't touch vista with a bargepole yet....

Its just fatter and heavier than XP, with no real improvements in technology, just a glossier front end that requires better hardware.

Just a thought, but have you tried alternatives such as Firefox, Opera etc etc. Firefox 2 is extremely stable, and has tabbed browsing! Rock on!

http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/ is your friend....IE7 memory leaks like a mofo anyway so an old machine will die with it on....

linux.....

Thanks for the ideas guys .... it's only PMs on oople that kills it so I'll live ..... it's not like I have any friends who will want to PM me any way

:cry:

How OT are we now ... LOL

Ok, so i am struggling to source some imperial drills to drill out some pistons, but the #54 drill that i am after is equivelant to 1.40mm the equivelant to a black hole is 1.09mm, but the nearest drill i can get is 1,10mm, am i really going to notice 0.01mm??? afterall im going to be using a dremel anyway:)

IE7 Won't install on Windows 2000, only XP or later.

No such thing as a 'cut down version' of XP, a OEM versions are the same it's just the product key that dictates what hardware you can activate it on. (EG, a VLK licensed to brand x will only activate online on the origonal hardware, otherwise you have to use the phone method).

But I digress, back to shock pistons... :p

No! Do it by hand!

No! :)

Cheers elvo, i didnt know how easy it would be:)

I didnt think i would feel it but you never know:D

I would definately buy the correct imperial drill bits, they are called #56 #57 and so on.

don't buy the metric equiv if you plan to 'copy' peoples setups and referance other companies pistons like Losi.

Lee, I'll get you some today :thumbsup:

Another thing i am thinking about, just thought i would add it onto this thread.


I am having some blank pistons made up for the aero, if i go for a slightly thicker piston will it provide more pack for the same hole size:confused:


It might not but my head thinks it might:lol:
