Alienware M11x with Core i5/i7 OUT NAO!

joyyy — Tue, 08 Jun 2010 11:46:48 +0800

We've been hearing about an impending CPU update to Alienware's M11x for some time now, and now Dell MalaysiaDell Malaysia has quietly updated its website with options to order the revised not-quite-netbook. So what's new? Well, there's NVIDIA Optimus for starters, and the Intel Core 2 Duo processor has been thanked for its time and shown the door in lieu of Core i3, i5, and i7 CPUs on a QS57 chipset. Prices start at RM 3,699, or about $1,110 in US bills. Speaking of which, while Dell's US site has yet to update, we've seen what's purported to be some internal documentation that pinpoints the official stateside launch for the revised M11x as tomorrow (technically, it's already Tuesday in Malaysia). No confirmation yet, but hey, it'd make for a pretty nice pre-E3 gift.

Not bad eh, it came out in Malaysia first

Help needed

Guys I got a problem here.
My tamron 70-300 worked fine before this. But just now when I tried shooting at 300mm with it, an error 01 would keep showing up.

"Error 01
Communication problem between lens and camera. Please clean lens contact"

When i turned the camera off and back on again to shoot at a shorter focal length, it would shoot fine. I tried testing it, the whole thing would get f*cked up once I reached around 200mm. The lens contact looked fine to me too, but I cleaned it with a moist cloth anyway.
I found out that at around 200mm and above, when I pressed the DOF preview button the aperture won't change. So I'm suspecting the aperture mechanism that is causing this problem.

Any other forumers had this problem before?

My shots

I used Aperture priority for most of the shots. So the camera had a tendency to bump up the ISO to high levels.

Guys, some help here, car wont start

Heres the problem. My mum's Matrix Automatic wont start now. Whenever she tries starting, there's only one "Kekh" sound.
I tried the alarm and the horn, they both work. I tried cleaning the battery contacts, that didnt solve the problem.
But I dont have the tools to remove the spark plug. Could it be the spark plug or the battery? or something totally different?

Enquiry about Protein Supplements

joyyy — Thu, 27 Mar 2008 01:15:34 +0800

I've never really been a big fan of Protein supplements.
But lately I've been thinking about trying some.
So, I'm looking for muscle growth supplements, Whey in particular.
Could you guys give your opinions on the different brands available? I've only got information on Horley's supplements.
And, if possible, could you guys give a link to the product and the price of it. Thanks.

So here's the problem. I've downloaded Deluge for windows from their site, but it's in some strange file format and not in .exe. That means I cant install it, but I thought I was downloading a .exe file? Could someone tell me how to get it installed on my com? Thanks.

Ok I've done some research on my com and this is what I've come up with.

Intel C2D E6320 1.86Ghz -- RM600
Gigabyte 965P DS3 v3.3 -- RM450
Colorful Geforce 8600GTS --RM720
320GB SATAII 7200 --RM280
Some value 2Gb(1x1Gb) DDR2 667- RM350
CM Real Power 450W --RM260
Creative cheapass SB 5.1 --RM60
19" TFT Acer Widescreen --RM600
CM Centurion 5 --RM200

That will tally to about RM3520. I've looked at almost all the shops' price lists and chosen the components.
So can any shop give me a good price for this rig of mine?
