  1. first of all, you have to regularly feed the hamster or he gets out of shape and tiered. secondly which game does this happen with or is it with every program. yes i agree with tictoc5150 a ton of that list are not needed. i get the feeling that there is something else running too but my digital telepathy just can't see it.
  2. ohhh how i've missed your avatar. MOOOOOO!!! yes we've missed you too.
  3. NO annnnd YES. it's the way they go about it. now i admite that i haven't kept in fully apprised of since the days of the good old G4s but they are still very different.

  6. For a long long long time now IBM has been making the processors for Apple. since they started on the G5 Apple gave IBM a goal of 3Ghz. Apple even promised it's consumers about 2 years ago or so and still has never delivered on it's promise. i found this article on apples site. Apple's finally going Intel i am saddened by this news. i wonder just how much of the memory based architecture will have to been changed to allow the Intel Processors. after all still being a memory based system is what makes a mac a mac.

  8. so the EGR valve it's self might not be opening and closing at the right times. i'm sorry to say that if that's the case then i don't know any easy fix for it. How many miles are on it? you may be on to something with it being babied. i have seen before with shift modules where the truck got used to shifting at certain points. i had and old ford truck that the detent (connects to the throttle and determines how much throttle your giving it so that it can shift the gears accordingly) cable broke and the guy fixed it by just pulling the cable out and tying it together in a knot. which shortene

  14. i love those ford 300 6's. the best towing motor ford made for a really long time. so incredibly durable with the right maintenance. anyways just a little question so that i know which EGR system you have. which 4.3L do you have? just like every other chevy truck of that year range you had the choice of 3 different 4.3L V6's. ------ a throttle body fuel injection 4.3L ------ a single port fuel injection Vortek ------ a multiport fuel injection Vortek all with different EGR systems. the multiport is very well known for injector and EGR problems. now that i think of it i don't think that has a
