:cry: Just to let you know...i found out my system hangs when i try to record a demo...rather than waste time i came out of the match to go and find a sub...thx Oldie for jumping in..

i dont have a clue why it hangs the only thing i can do is re-boot ...i think Tealeaf had the same prob...ill have a poke around and see if i can find anything but if anyone has had this problem before shout up it may save me doing a full install

No the only way to get around it is to format your hard drive but now that you have tried to record a demo you will start to find problems happening with your PC it will just crash for no reason and then your mouse will stop working followed by your graphics card setting fire and burning down your house. It is quite a common thing so my advice is go and make your self a boot disk restart ur pc in dos and type A:format c: this will sort out the problems u are having and reduce the risk of a burnt down house.

Or you could send me £50,000,000 in unsequential notes and I will send you a new PC with CS pre-installed which will not only be capable of recording demos, but will actually bend space-time and as an added bonus you will get a 48 piece screwdriver set absolutely free!

But wait! There is more! You will also recieve a 128 piece drill bit set completely free!

Order now to save disapointment!

That'll be 'unmarked' as in 'unstained'.  No skid marks or other dubious colourations, OK Smite?

Well with all that sound advce being passed around that must surely be another PC problem sorted.

JAS - i bet your real pleased with the results and i feel certain you'll be back whenever you have another prob.

Dont forget....you can also seek advice about your most personal & secretive probs(of which you must have many)..the more personal the better.Rest assured they will be treated with the usual respect & sensitivity that has become the hallmark of the  dMw Advice Burea (DMWAB) :wink:

Have a nice dayyyyyyyyyy
