My external HD can't be read.

Hi, hope someone can help me here.

I have a Buffalo DriveStation External USB 2.0 Hard Drive.

Accidentally "ejected" it by clicking on the option while right-clicking in My Computer.

Now the light is on but it's not recognised by the computer.

Tried unplugging and replugging, turning the whole computer off and on. Doesn't work.

Help?

My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy - Kanye West

Celtica — Mon, 06 Dec 2010 00:13:49 +0800

Just listened to the album, probably one of the most amazing hip-hop albums to date IMO.

The non-explicit cover of the album.

If you don't mind the explicit lyrics, the uncensored version is the best version because the most amazing thing is that Kanye just puts his whole life,feelings and opinions towards everything in this album. The clean version is quite good too, so don't stop yourself from getting it.

Even Rolling Stones gave him a 5-star review,

"It’s his best album, but it’s more than that — it’s also a rock-star manifesto for a downsizing world. At a time when we all get hectored about lowering our expectations, surrendering our attention spans, settling for less, West wants us to demand more."

After all the controversy surrounding him, he just rises from the ashes and blows the hip-hop scene out of the water.

If there's one quote to justify this album, I would use The Washington Post's review,

"And that’s just a freckle of the petulant genius that coats every inch of My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy, easily the most thrilling album of 2010 and the best of West’s career. The weird, wordy title is the only thing about this opus that he’ll live to regret—the rest is pure pop bravura, with hip-hop’s biggest ego torquing self-obsession into unapologetic new shapes."

My favourite tracks : "Runaway", "Hell Of A Life" , “Dark Fantasy” , "Power"

5 out of 5.

(HELP) CPU Fan Error

Celtica — Wed, 17 Nov 2010 18:13:13 +0800

Hey guys,

I'm using a Cooler Master Elite 310 casing with 3 fans running.

I switched on today, got the CPU fan error, press F1 to resume.
Because my casing is see-through, I can see the problem.
One of my CPU fans, the one right above the motherboard is not working but the other two, blowing through the back and side of the casing still functional.

Running on max. power saving mode now, should I switch off and get it repaired immediately or can I run on the two fans?

Need to dump old Macs!

Celtica — Sat, 31 Jul 2010 16:14:13 +0800

I have at least 3 old screens ( the big and clunky ones ) and 2 CPUS. ( 2 full Mac sets & one Acer screen, I think )
All are unusable, so I need to clear them out.

What is the best way to get rid of them? Is there any way I can salvage any parts and probably sell them or should I just dump it in a junkyard?
Any ideas, guys? Not really sure what to do...

P.S. Is this the correct forum to post in, I'm not too sure...

Finding Wireless XBox 360 Controller

Celtica — Sat, 21 Nov 2009 12:13:32 +0800

Planning on getting a Wireless X Box 360 Controller but when I called up Gamer's Hideout they said it was roughly RM200 + .

I'm quite sure I saw it somewhere else at RM 178 but can't remember where. Anyone got any suggestions on where to find the cheapest buy??
