  1. My best advice is for you to figure out your exact model and see if you can order a replacement keyboard for your laptop online. If you can order the keyboard yourself I would highly recommend you do so and use user guides online and follow the step by step process they give you for removing parts and replacing them. It may seem like geek work but its purely maintenance and anyone can do it. Here is a example of a random hp laptop guide for replacing its keyboard. I would assume this to be the most inexpensive and only possible route for you to fix your sticky keyboard issue.

    Hp guide for keyboard removal and replacement Just a example guide I found. if you have anymore questions feel free to ask! :D


  2. hi guys,
    i've just joined the forums! I'm real glad to be part of this community.

    I major in web development and design has occupied my time of late as well. I use Drupal and will be launching my first web design agency after like two years of planning. I'm here to get hosting and share the little that I know with the community.

    By the way, i'm 21 years old! and i'm a guy. lol


    Hey, glad to meet a fellow web design enthusiast!

  3. I used to download torrents from them in the past until the feds started cracking down on the P2P. I am now officially afraid to torrent anything that I am not sure is still subject to copywrite. I do not ever seed torrents I just download but then again its much better to just buy the program rather than trying to steal it or crack it. Not to mention the chance of getting a super virus that kills your pc... I think its pretty obvious that the piratebay deliberately provides illegal torrents. They did not attempt at all to remove illegal programs that were being provided for download on their site.


  4. Hey, my name is Justin and I of course nabbed me a logic plan deal for 1.95$ a month. I have begun to pick up on web traffic, and I now receive donations from my members. So since I can afford paying for upgrades besides having to rack up in mycents. I was wondering how I can upgrade my logic plan?

     

     

    Logic Plan - $1.95 / mo. - FREE SETUP! - When Compromising is not a Choice, a Simple Logic helps :-)

     

    1 GB space * upgradeable to 25GB

    10 GB bandwidth * upgradeable to 1024GB/1TB

     

    5 FTP, 5 MySQL, 5 Addon / Parked and 5 Sub-domains


    The extra bandwidth is mostly what I am interested in at the moment.

  5. First advice get rid of the splash page unless you plan to add more to it, because you lose more visitors because of it and the reason why is that it is extra clicks that person needs to get to in order to see the content on your site. As for other advice, I would look into skinning your PHPBB forum as well to try and fit the theme which of course is a clan site or Diablo III type theme.

    Done, and Done please feel free to take another look! I have done a ton of work on the site and it is looking very smexy at the moment. I still have more work to do far as organizing the site and such, but it is coming along very nicely.

  6. Sorry about the grammar mistakes in my earlier post... However as an follow up. I suppose maybe the rumors are false about ipod(s). Especially the new ones. Although I saw some early generation ipods break so easily just from a small drop or fall. Sansa as I have heard is supposed to be a "fitness" tough mp3 player that can handle the roughness of a active lifestyle. However after just jogging with it for a breif time. Mine just about broke completely.


  7. Think realistically, Not everyone mooches off of Xisto. Eventually at least one fourth of us will upgrade to better accounts and start paying for most of the services that we require. Mycents is too slow and time consuming to make up for the charges necessary for a nice hosted account. It is great for a freebie account of 2$ monthly, being if your the type who needs security; in the fact you can still arrange the cash needed to maintain your hosting. Also I find it doubtful that Xisto will have a random mass joining of 6000+ scammers. The administrator tools and filters they can use to find spammer accounts, and fakers in general can also minimize the arduous task of eliminating users who violate Xisto's user agreement as well. It is a well equipped webhosting company. So I do not think they are so understaffed that they cannot handle random events such as that.


  8. I currently have Xisto as my webhost using mycents, and I was wondering what I should do to keep my site up in the case I was gone for three months. Currently I am thinking of joining the marines to help me get my programming degree ect. So When I go into basic training I will be gone at least three months. Any Ideas as to what I could do to prepare for the day this happens? I would hate to have my account locked or removed due to inactivity. Much less the site taken down because of it. It is important to me after all :D


  9. From the looks of it. Its true that it "may" lengthen the lifespan of your computer by also reducing the concentrated areas of heat inside the computer. The oil distributes the heat evenly allowing the ambient temperature to stay moderate and low.Also keep in mind that they suspect the radiator/filter system could cause moderate ammounts of water to enter the tank. If this does happen then you should be able to see it after a while. Make sure when you install the components to have them placed half an inch or so from the bottom of the tank. (as a extra precaution)It is not yet seen as a real issue.In addition it is almost impossible to get pure H2O even with distilled water. So the chances of conductivity, and a possible ph problem are relevant to the issue with submerging in water. Not to mention water is called the universal solvent for a reason. The elements inside the parts of the computer could very well dissolve, or decompose. Especially the metallic ionic elements inside the motherboard.


  10. You are most definately welcome! Just watch out for single line posts, and topics that can be considered spam. I myself am surprised at how popular Xisto hosting is... Members on my clan site even have heard about it and that seems so random to me. So far I really love this website and enjoy contributing my feedback+ Ideas to them. I hope you will too!


  11. Hey, I just completed my clan website, and I was looking for some advice, or ideas for making it better. Currently my site is focused mainly on the phpbb message boards. I wish there was a way we could pay for some professional graphics using mysents. I am not all that great with making coustom logo's, ect.

    Here is the link

    Clan Kaos

    If you have any suggestions about making the site cleaner by eliminating useless forums please post your ideas.


  12. I had to do a report in my technology class a couple of semesters ago. They actually have many plans in place to reduce the 'air clogs' due to flying cars. there are also many specifications these cars must meet like how loud they are for instance. There are many active companies trying to get the flying car market going right now. I just wouldnt want to be the air traffic controller when it comes to be like the Jetsons :D

    Well hopefully with technology being as advanced as it is today. We could use computers to help reduce the work load for air traffic controllers. It might be "more" practicle a decade from now or more... Often with new advances like this especially with our economy being under duress... Prices are inflated and its hard to make things economical for the middleclass, and lower. I doubt it would ever be something acheivable for people less fortunate... But at least the middle class could get a hold on this nifty new trend of transportation.

  13. Wow Interesting. CRAZY But very interesting. I dont know But in my opinion I paid way to much money for my PC to be taking it apart and submerging it in mineral, vegtable, Or any kind of oil. It was kinda cool to watch though. I watched a couple different videos on it. But like I said I couldnt do it. I dont know if that would really work or not, But to me I would think Electricity Plus Oil = Major Fire Hazard? Is it just me or does anyone else see this happening?

    The Mineral Oil is non conductive, altho it is viscous(meaning it finds its way into small places) So if you were to build your computer it would be best to do it the way they did by hiding your ports at the top side of the tank using a special motherboard& to install your disk drive/ cddrives in the top as well. The reason for this is the disk drives are not perfectly sealed and if oil gets inside it can ruin them or drastically ruin the speed that it can read the disk ect. altho there is special drives that you can use fine submerged in oil. The absolute worse that can happen with this set up is the wearing of stickers, and eventual discolloring of led lights. The oil can wisk its way down cables apparently so you would need to install wireless parts to help prevent messes, and try to keep your power cables clean. I suspect that they or you could create a way to keep the mess down.


    I like the idea, but what is the cooling efficiency? How effective is it?
    I might consider trying it when I make a complete upgrade of my computer and use old parts.

    What kind of oil would you recommend and it cools effectively?


    The mineral oil works way better than fan cooling. It takes 12 long hours before the tempreatures are even close to its maximum. They have engineered a radiator system to help cool the oil. So now it rarely if ever reaches these max temps. Also it helps moderate concetrated temperatures around certain regions. dispersing the heat evenly helping prolong the life of your hardware. Another downside they mentioned was the possible build up of h2o/which will be visible and can be removed(they have yet to see this happen though) and after a whole year your oil will start showing murkeyness. Which any pc oil or open air will require eventual cleaning. They suggest you install a radiator system to cool the oil that also helps filter it? Well you could build your own and try out some ideas of your own. Or keep up to date on the site in which they are continuously updating new ideas they have discovered to improve the system. Like I said its a really new idea and imperfect. However its awsome use for a gaming pc, I am not too sure if its practicle for dedicated servers and such for hard working computers. I think they solved the heating problem so maybe it is. We wont know until they have tested the computers further.

  14. I figured I would be proactive and welcome you as well! I am a newbie myself and desperatly needed my space... So I will let you in on what I know so far. Try to not post single sentence responses, or anything that is of little thought and could be considered spam. What this website is looking for is productive high quality posts that help people in some degree. You probably know this by now from the rules you read in the related posts. You get mycents from the quality of your posts/topics so the more thought and effort the more $$ you can possibly earn!


  15. I was curious if we could upgrade our current plan later on when we can afford it with mycents, or real money. It is enevitable if im good at running my website that I will need more bandwidth. Popular sites get hit alot and I really hope to be one of them. Granted 10k mb bandwidth is alot. I am just curious if the situation ever occurs if I could upgrade without having to migrate to a different service? I took a look at what we could upgrade with the logic plan and none of them appeared to mention bandwidth.Sorry in advance if this is a useless question...


  16. Hmm, So we cannot post one liners? It seems difficult to always respond to things in paragraphs but I will practice that. I am hosted finally... It took me a while to figure out how to use the user panel on xisto. Fortunately it was clear enough that I could set up my ftp accounts, sql database, and forums. Things are looking sexy and for the first time I feel secure that I can keep my site up permanently without evil lame webhosts removing me! I think this is a great way to advertise web hosting... This way people get to earn a basic service, while giving back and later on they can pay out of pocket for additional services+ upgrade when we can afford it!


  17. This is a great 3d/action rpg. You have several character classes to choose from and the character coustomization is surprisingly detailed. It is a basic free to play mmorpg with the option to buy points to purchase gameshop items. Which is always fine by me long as the gameplay is worth it. I think this game is incredibly well balanced far as gameplay and worth trying! In my opinion its way better than runescape EWWW! Check it out at this link.

  18. We have been around for 5 years, and been wreaking havock on bnet D2 east the whole time. Soon and comming is Diablo 3 and Starcraft 2. I am making plans to start up clan divisions on these games so those interested in helping me lead this venture please post here and we will chat about ideas for forming this clan.My whole reason for joining the Xisto community is for the soul purpose of establishing professional hosting for the clan. I welcome any interested pc gamers to the clan and we can discuss positions you can hold once the clan is re-formed again.I was thinking instead of being a skill based clan we could go for more of a VIP approach. Members can join on a trial basis and have to prove themselves within a week in order to secure a permanent rank as a member ect. This way we can collect primarily active members instead of randoms who care more about the game rather than a clan community.I would post the entire history of clan kaos but I do not want to have a wall of text up here... If anyone responds to this post I will be more than happy to submit more info about clan kaos and our objectives. It will be easier when our site is finally up once I have enough mycents!


  19. I think pc games are more worth it because if you buy a nice enough computer you can play some pretty top of the line games for a long time. I would be happy for at leasta good 5+ years before I would be tempted to upgrade my computer in order to play any newer generation games. To be honest you can only get so good with graphics... So why obsess on something that is a few pixels better at rendering graphics and so much more drain on pc resources that you have to buy new ram cards... But in the long run I rather upgrade a pc than buy a 800$ game system or even 200$ ish... At least a highly upgraded pc can serve more purpose than a console. Well for now at least. I predict consoles will end up being fancy gaming computers enevitably. Going from console to dedicated gaming pc thats upgradable. Pretty much already like that now.
