Right at last i have managed to get on my computer, the XE is in and running sweet as a nut Its absolutley fantastic.

Anyway i would like to say a massive thankyou to Graham and Laurence and who ever else helped at Topgear, for putting it in and sorting it for me. I have only got 2 picys as the others are bigger then 1Mb so if anybody knows how to reduce them so i can put them on here please help.

managed to get a couple more








Once again cheers.

Iain, use the Java uploader window, not the thing with 4 lines. That will resize them for you.
