A police knocked down

cheeyeen — Wed, 06 Jul 2011 14:45:09 +0800

It was on Serdang Raya connecting to the Bkt Jalil highway this morning.
There was a road block it seems at the front.

A police on motorbike was knocked down by a car and the next thing I saw was the police lying down under the car near the tyre.

EDIT: the police seemed to be riding across the road or something then the accident happened.

Keyboard problem

cheeyeen — Wed, 04 May 2011 20:57:52 +0800

My keyboard cannot recognise the arrow key after I pressed another key while holding one arrow key.

Like say, I am controlling my character to run left and while running I press the key A (or any other key in that matter), and the character will stop running after I hit those extra keys. I have to lift the arrow key and tap it again to make the character to start running again. This kinda makes me headache as in games we need to keep escaping at times

It seems like an old problem occurring to me last time, but I can't really recall what the problem is.
This is a Logitech keyboard with PS/2 input. I am using a PS/2 to USB converter with hubs.

Please enlighten me again! Thanks

WTA: Unlocking phones

cheeyeen — Sun, 02 Aug 2009 19:00:48 +0800

Does unlocking service include ALL network operators around the world? I have a phone locked by Bouygues Telecom from France, KC910; Is it possible to get it unlocked in LY?

I heard also the price of unlocking ~RM50 in LYP, true?

ISP for Sri Serdang & UPM

cheeyeen — Tue, 23 Jun 2009 18:16:17 +0800

I have seen IZZI & P1 home lite packages (RM48 or 49/month) but it seems like P1 doesn't cover this area.
And many have complaints towards P1 as well!

I can't subscribe to Streamyx, RM66 + phoneline rental is too heavy for me alone. (I also need to re-subscribe a new FIXED telephony line & bla bla bla, all the fees will come)

Jaring Flite Wireless anyone? It seems jaring covers this area... and Jaring Flite Standard Promo offers 1.0MBPS (Celcom 384kbps RM68) with only RM69/month!! (still expensive, but best already)
What kind of wireless modem are they going to give me?

EDIT: found out about Jaring!

Laptop crashed! WHY?!

cheeyeen — Tue, 06 May 2008 18:49:49 +0800

IBM Thinkpad R51e
1.73GHz Pentium M Processor
80GB WD HDD 5400rpm
ATI Radeon Express 200M Graphic Card
Max. RAM supported: 2x1GB

Laptop goes totally blank when I pressed the power button on my laptop.
Screen is black and nothing showed up.
I could hear my HDD spinning.
This only happens when I put 2x1GB 667MHz RAM into my laptop.
None of the RAM was faulty because I tested them seperately and they worked fine.

1GB + 256MB - fine
1GB + 0 - fine
0 + 1GB - fine
256MB + 256MB - fine
256MB + 1GB - fine
1GB + 1GB - CRASH!

When I enabled 'extended memory test on startup' in BIOS, it gave me an error message: Windows could not start because ntoskrnl.exe is missing or corrupted.
Tried re-installing the file using XP Console Recovery but nothing seemed to work.
HELP!

Laptop crashes with 2GB RAM

cheeyeen — Sun, 27 Apr 2008 02:26:46 +0800

IBM ThinkPad r51e, Pentium M 1.73GHz, 80GB IDE HDD, ATI Radeon Express 200M Graphic...

Max. RAM supported: 2x1GB, PC4200 or PC5300 modules.

I upgraded with 1x1GB PC5300 Kingston RAM few days ago and it worked fine... And now I bought another 1GB PC5300 Kingston RAM and slot it in, i couldn't boot my laptop!! The screen is just blank with HDD running and I can hear all the sound in the running machine but the screen is still *BLANK*

It worked fine with 1x1GB RAM, and even 1GB+256MB RAM... It just won't work with both 1GB in it!

My old RAM was 2x256MB PC4200 and its VRAM took up 64MB; now VRAM has increased to 128MB when I installed 1x1GB into it. (Just in case if you guys need to know)

What should I do to make both the RAM work? I feel so lazy to go back to low yat and change this and that for me... Ughhh... Getting fed up.

Thank you so much in advance for your help!!!!

PCI to USB Device?

HDD malfunctioned or problems with settings?

cheeyeen — Thu, 31 Jan 2008 01:25:30 +0800

My WD HDD 80GB is not working properly.
Well I'm sure that the guy did the partition thingy in front of my eyes and he could open the drivers in his computer.
When I plugged it into my laptop (with both USB ports, to avoid any power issue), a window popped up and said my device couldn't be installed properly and therefore my device cannot work properly.
Then I tried restarting my laptop with my HDD attached, and when it's accessing BIOS, it hanged.
I checked in the Device Manager and under USB Controller, there is a small yellow exclamation mark beside my 'USB Mass Storage'. It says 'the device cannot start (Code 10)'...
Then I checkd my Disk Management, and there isn't any new drivers showing up.

Is there a problem with my HDD which I will need to go back and make an one-to-one exchange? Or is it some sorta settings problem? 'cause I've seen my HDD working in his computer.

I bought it from low yat sri comp...
