  1. I think BuffaloHELP may be correct 'cuz definitely not a cable error, 'cuz I don't experience that "loose cable effect" nor does my external plug going haywire since I connect my school's projector to it and it works.Thanks for your help, at least I know what's going on. I think I'll just wait until I can get a new laptop instead, since this is an old one, and apparently it's starting to go out.xboxrulz


  2. Hey all!

     

    I have a Samsung NV5000 laptop, and it's been in operation for around 7 years (you've read it correctly, if u dun believe ur eyes, read it again.)

     

    However, something strange happens to my LCD screen whenever the screen sleeps and then wakes up. Suddenly it just reddens up :s, then a few seconds later, it turns back to normal colours. However, when compared to other laptops (a little newer ones), it's fairly dimmer (even on brightest setting).

    Does anyone know what's causing this? and is this a bad thing?

     

    (and no, I didn't photoshop my laptop like this. Also my camera's lens is fine.)

     

    Thanks,

  3. @xboxrulz: Does that HDD Utility Disc program come with the Sony hard drives? The one I have is a regular Maxtor one that I bought separately. That program seems to only format it for a first time use though...don't want to do that here since my brother's games are still all in there.
    I'm going to get a spare blank hard drive to do this soon.

    Side question (related in a way)...Is it possible to do the cloning via USB 2.0 instead of IDE? I have those USB enclosure drives and want to use my laptop to do this. Always curious if ghosting using USB would work. I know it will be much slower than if it was using IDE :)


    I dunno, I think so.

    I don't have a PS2, so I don't know.

  4. I do not like MySpace due to its inefficiency too, there's just too many ads in the website. As people already compared it to Facebook, Facebook doesn't have huge ad banners, and it doesn't try to be the next Google for social networking sites.Facebook, HI5, Facebox and even Orkut is better designed than MySpace.These social networking sites aren't just a fad, it is here to stay actually, as a teenager myself, these websites are actually fun, you can keep up with what's your friends are up to, these sites also allow you to create plans together, get to share things, write whatever you want (like a blog), message others, leave comments, join groups which you are interested in and etc. These sites have their purposes, but people exploit them though.xboxrulz


  5. OpenOffice comes without some good features, but it is usable by most people in its current state. I, myself run OpenOffice everyday.As for 128mb of RAM, it would work, but as I said, it will lag, especially if you a full fledge desktop environmentFor example, my laptop has 192MB RAM and it's running a full fledge desktop environment and it still lags like crap.xboxrulz


  6. Breakthrough Internet communications device...

    iPhone features a rich HTML email client and Safari â the most advanced web browser ever on a portable device â which automatically syncs bookmarks from your PC or Mac. Safari also includes built-in Google and Yahoo! search. iPhone is fully multi-tasking, so you can read a web page while downloading your email in the background over Wi-Fi or EDGE.

    Breakthrough? in what way? I have a Qtek9090 smartphone now for almost TWO years - I can surf the net via EDGE and or WIFI - I use the most advanced web browser for a phone already!! its OPERA not Safari.I have never had any troubles syncing my mail or to think about it my bookmarks from my pc, Active Sync or 3rd party apps take care of this.

    I have a great button on my phone like a joypad that I can use to scroll up and down webpages with so you don't have to keep tapping the screen to scroll..

    My phone is FULLY multi-tasking too!! I can watch DIVX movies and take calls..I can listen to Mp3s have a half played game and an SMS/Email open all at the same time no probs at all..not that I do that but when I first got the phone I used to forget and leave lots of apps open all the time.

    Wait, time-out, I just looked at that Qtek9090 smartphone, I don't see a rich email client and full web-browser, Opera's engine is missing some components in its core, especially for full GMail access, which was the hype. All Blackberry-type phones do support WIFI and EDGE for years.

  7. well, Vista is currently bogging down my Battlefield 2142 (on RC 2, it had some major memory leak), I hope it's fixed on RTM which I have now, I'll test 2142 later this week.

    When it comes to stability, Windows 2000 wins hands down.


    I disagree, the Battlefield series died on me on Windows 2000, it locks my system up completely. If you want pure stability, play it on Windows 2003 :)
