Yup, that's right....I'm officialy back from my travels. I had all my new pc components waiting for me when I got back. I've spent the last day or two sorting it all out (bearing in mind this is the first time I've ever built a pc from scratch). It's up and working...had a few teething probs but i (think) I've sorted them! I do have a question though....
I bought an Asus Arctic Square CPU Heatsink......I believe it's working....but the fan doesn't spin the whole time! I'm no pro but I thought that the cpu fan spun constantly (even if only slowly if the cpu was cool)??? But it appears mine doesn't.....when I'm sat here on the net and just generally doing non stressfull things on it it doesn't spin at all....but I've installed UT3 and UT2k4 and noticed that the fan does start to spin when playing, but it only spins at something like 300 or 400rpm's. The temp ranges from about 30 degrees and the hottest I've seen it is probably about the mid 40's. Would this be correct as the case has 2 intake fans (one on the side that is drawing cool air straight onto the cpu heatsink) and one exhaust fan. I'm guessing as I've had the pc running for a good few hours that this is all well and good, and at least it hasn't shut itself off due to overheating! Was just wondering that was all 
Also, am I being a complete dumb ass as I have no idea how to find the Instant Rumble server on UT3. Bjoern has put the address on the servers topic but I can't for the life of me figure out how to manually add a server. All I can do is select the game style and press the search button....but even then I can't find the Rumble server. What am I doing wrong???  PLEASE HELP as I really wanna see what UT3 is like playing with all the old clan!!!

Hi Andy, glad to have you with us again!
Welcome back to cold Europe... 
   
For joining UT3-Rumble open console in ut3 (F10)
and enter open:xanton.org:31300
Once you joined the server you are able to
find it in server history ...and add it to favourites.
(It should show up in TDM list at the moment)
Ah, and you need to apply the latest patch (1.2).

OK, so now I just saw it in TDM server list.....but i cannot get onto the server coz I get an error message saying something like "failed to download BiaVote" or something like that. Is that a prob my end or is there a prob with the server??
Help PLZZZZZZ, I really wanna play this thing online!!!!! 
Oh and how do u add it once its in your History tab as I cant seem to right click on anything on any of the tabs (although I don't actually have the server in my history tab yet, I just wanted to know so I dont have another problem later on )

Hi Andy M8, good to see you back with us again, im no expert, but my temp runs at about 50 to 60 degrees, so i think your temp is fine.
I get a lot of failed DL,s just keep trying, have you got the latest beta patch 2?
