When the percussion reset does not work, try a ballistic reset, 12 gauge with 00 buck should work

Actually pressure washing the CPU seemed to help.

Yup, neuro-electrical. Some brain trust engineer at microsoft decided to make it that every other windows update causes my video card to go all scibidy-jibidy (<-- just made that up, trademark reserved by Warbirds Resource Group 2020)

Still having issues with it but at least it didn't grenade the system like last time.

Nope, not messing around next time...

My little was not a complete waste. I've got some formatting code bugs to work out but the Forgotten Jets entry for the F-111 'Vark is almost ready to go live. If you have any Vark pics while in service (USAF or RAAF) that can be ID'd and want to share, then send em to the forgottenjets e-mail.

Please do not send preserved or non service pics to that e-mail. You can send those genre of pics to

Now I know all of you all behaved yourself and I will be able to enjoy going through the posts and not have to worry about unrully behavior right? RIGHT?
