Blinking External Monitor

thomasyke — Tue, 29 Mar 2016 10:42:13 +0800

Hi Guys,

Need some ideas on troubleshooting this issue.
OS: Windows 10 64bit

Issue:
Blinking External Monitor [Dell U2715H] when connected to Laptop [Illegear S5 (P650SG)] via MiniDisplay (mDP) to DisplayPort.

What I've tried so far:
1. Connecting monitor to other source. (Works) [Rules out monitor issues]
2. Connecting monitor from different port on Laptop. (No difference)
3. Ensured that Monitor Drivers are up to date (Not that it's needed though)

What I'm going to do next:
~~1. Connecting monitor using HDMI cable. (Not preferable since HDMI provides less bandwidth than Display)~~
2. Request for newer BIOS update. (I've seen on Clevo user forums that there are newer version of bios than the one I'm using but they didn't list the fixes of that version)

Anyone used the combination above before? or have any ideas what to try?

UPDATE:
Tried with HDMI cable and looks like it's working, but doesn't explain why mDP doesn't work. =\
Trying to find another spare mDP cable to see if it's a cable fault.

JHO LOW’S SURPRISE ENGAGEMENT PROPOSAL RUMOURED TO COST £1M (RM 5.5 MILLION)

Flamboyant billionaire Jho Low is back in limelight, once again, with another story of an extravagant but sadly futile attempt at wooing the heart of another major celebrity- famous Taiwanese Mandopop singer Elva Hsiao.

Jho Low, considered by many to be the Dan Bilzerian of Malaysia because of his over-extravagance and partying habits

Taiwanese online media portal Apple Daily reported the billionaire’s multi-million dollar proposal after coming across an alleged video recording documenting Low’s proposal.

The online media portal cites a video uploaded about a year ago to video-sharing site, Vimeo.com, by British-based professional photographer Peter Rear.

The video that was titled, ‘Atlantis Engagement, Dubai’, did not mention the identity of the couple but contained an eye-opening caption; ‘Surprise engagement proposal rumored to cost £1m (RM 5.5 million).

The extravagant cost of the proposal comes as no surprise considering it took place on the private beach of Atlantis, The Palm- a world-famous hotel on the island of Palm Jumeirah, off the coast of Dubai; famous for it’s extravagant tenant costs.

Atlantis- The Palm, is heralded by many as one of the most luxurious getaways in the world

The 5-minute long video depicts the couple arriving to the beach in high-style- in a blacked out Rolls-Royce and strolling on the beach, where candles laid out romantically in a Valentine heart shape.

Someone’s been reading one too many love novels

Out on the sea, a giant neon-lit backdrop hung between two yachts that read “Jho (Hearts) Elva” lit up the dim evening waters.

Clearly a luxury exclusive only to the top 1%

The couple then proceed hand-in-hand to a luxurious set to dine- claimed to be the work of Dubai’s world famous architectural and interior design firm, Ali Bakhtiar designs- as lasers show outlines of the couple’s silhouette.

The couple then enjoyed their dinner prepared by a five-star chef, while being serenaded by a harpist and a violinist- playing a violin embedded with precious stones.

The romantic atmosphere is disrupted when several parachutists descend from the sky onto the beach, James Bond style, to present Hsiao with jewellery custom made by Swiss luxury brand, Chopard.

The jewellery is rumoured to be a pendant-and-necklace set estimated at a mind-boggling RM83,500.

The outrageous extravagance and flair of near-unattainable luxury moved Hsiao to the brink of tears, but was not enough to move her heart.

Apple Daily reports that the 33-year-old Mandopop star rejected the proposal and only saw 31-year-old Low as a ‘little brother’.

However, despite the rejection, the night ended with a million-dollar fireworks show that lit up the night sky with dazzling lights.

big
Maybe, it’s a little over the top… Just maybe..

The online media portal also reported that a spokesperson had denied claims that Low had proposed to Hsiao at the event, stressing that it was just a “romantic dinner”.

Penang-born Low, who is reportedly part of Prime Minister Najib Abdul Razak’s social circle, is well known for his flamboyant attempts to woo American socialite Paris Hilton and his high-rolling partying habits with his A-list friends from the United States. These parties can cost up to the millions.

Low, whose real name is Low Taek Jho, is the son of a tycoon Penangnite who reportedly has close links with Middle Eastern investors and has been nicknamed as the Dan Bilzerian of Malaysia.

The billionaire ‘playboy’ is also reportedly involved with the Terengganu Investment Authority (TIA) – now known as the 1Malaysia Development Bhd (1MDB) – and UBG Bhd, which is owned by the family of Sarawak Chief Minister, Abdul Taib Mahmud.

Low made it into the spotlight two years ago after reports of his extravagant partying habits with Hollywood actress and socialite Paris Hilton made headlines in both local and international papers.

The songstress is currently reported to be dating Taiwanese actor Kai Ko, who is 12 years her junior.

Looks like Kai Ko has quite a challenge to step up to after Low's extravagant proposal

How to get her, and lose her?

thomasyke — Mon, 28 Oct 2013 10:36:39 +0800

Hi, I recently knew a girl, lets call her E from my recently sleepless night, I feel that I am deeply in love with her. However, I still have my gf, lets call her F, F and I have been together for 3 years now. But I have never had such strong feelings with her than I have with E now. E knows of this and she herself has also just jumped into a new relationship (with another guy).

I'm not sure as to how strong her current relationship is, but I'm thinking of being the bad guy (I've already voiced out my lost of interest to continue my current relationship to my gf), to spanar her from her bf. Please advise.

Establishment Of MAGIC Will See More Collaboration With US, Says PM

KUALA LUMPUR, Oct 11 (Bernama) -- The establishment of Malaysian Global Innovation and Creative Centre (MaGIC) will see more collaboration between Malaysia and the United States to further boost entrepreneurial spirit among youths, Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak said Friday.

Announcing the new initiative, Najib said the centre will be located in Cyberjaya, where companies are involved in creative multimedia, research and development, outsourcing and data management.

Speaking at the opening of the 4th Global Entrepreneurship Summit (GES) here, Najib said the centre will be a one-stop shop for entrepreneurs, with everything from getting financing from banks or venture capital to incubators for developing start-ups; from intellectual property registration to facilities for training, coaching and mentoring.

"I would like the centre to work very closely on a partnership with the global upscale entrepreneurship centre that was mentioned by the US Secretary of State John Kerry in his address," he told some 4,700 delegates coming from over 100 countries to the two-day summit here.

Earlier, Kerry said the United States would initiate a new programme called "Up Global", which will support and train half a million entrepreneurs in 1,000 cities around the world, including Malaysia, over the next few years.

The programme is set to encourage more young and new talents and developing sustainable and exciting ventures.

Najib, who is also the Finance Minister, announced that Malaysia would be hosting the 5th Global Social Business Summit next month.

With The Global Startup Youth programme, which is taking place now with 500 young people working with 100 mentors on some of the world's most pressing problems.

"I look forward to receiving their creative solutions (and) I'm sure i will be inspired and hope to know how to turn my hair from grey to black," he said in jest.
