    Changing PSU

    It does have the extra 4 pin, I was very carefully with the plugs. I have put the new PSU in, however it only partially worked, the light and hdd indicator on the front panel didn't light. So I put the new psu into a working old Dell machine and sure enough it powered up, I put the psu from...

    Changing PSU

    Well it all plugged in ok but when powered up the light on the front didn't come on, no signal received by monitor, I'm assuming this means the PSU isn't supplying enough power, any ideas please?

    Tour De France advice

    those are very nice images Neil, i would like to get a high vantage point so i think i'll have to go for a drive and see what i can find en route. the panning thing seems to be a bit hit and miss with me so maybe i should think a bit more creative or do the freeze action thing. :)

    Good advice thanks everyone, it's the panning shots I'm after, I think this weekend I'll go to the route as there's always plenty of cyclists around too. Only getting one go at this is what's bothering me too, i only have an 18-55mm lens, will that be sufficient ? I'll try and post any shots I...
