slasherbaven — Sun, 17 Jul 2011 00:17:47 +0800

Someone I know wants to get either a Nokia C3 or Nokia E5 for, mainly for calling and texting.

Budget is RM500, and if there is/are any better options (non-Nokia is fine too) within the budget please say so.

Thanks!

1394 Adapter showing up!

slasherbaven — Sat, 02 Aug 2008 15:02:24 +0800

After deleting Ubuntu and reinstalling Windows XP, I couldn't connect to the internet because my LAN doesn't show up.
My laptop is a Compaq Presario v3500 V3713AU.

Everytime I enter Windows, it keeps prompting, saying "New Hardware Found - Ethernet Controller". However, since my laptop couldn't connect to the internet, the driver for whatever card it is could not be obtained.

The only LAN connection that shows up is a certain 1394 connection, which I later found out to it being FireWire.

Can anyone help me?

Pathetic Upload Speed

slasherbaven — Thu, 10 Jul 2008 13:24:04 +0800

Hi,

Well my problem is my pathetic upload speed. You see, I've been trying to upload, and my file only uploads at around 1 KB/Sec. Only Rapidshare allows me to upload a little faster, around 4~5 KB/Sec.
I hear from a friend that even though Streamyx sucks, it doesn't suck as bad as this. So I'm assuming it's a configuration problem.

Can anyone help me? =/

My Icons are gone!

slasherbaven — Fri, 01 Feb 2008 11:24:40 +0800

Here's a screenie.

[Internet] Firefox

slasherbaven — Wed, 16 Jan 2008 22:50:27 +0800

It's like this.. sometimes.. no, make that most of the time, whenever I click on a link, it'll appear as "Untitled".
I have to click it like 5 or 6 times for the link to load, and sometimes the load time is terrible. >_>

Another problem is my computer -- sometimes response normally, sometimes response like when you excute a program, you have to wait a while only for it to open.
Like when you execute VLC + Firefox + Task Manager, must waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaait then suddenly all three open at once.

These problems started only 2 days ago.

[Youtube] Uploading Annoyance

slasherbaven — Tue, 25 Dec 2007 18:59:04 +0800

There always seem to be a problem with my uploading on Youtube, it only passes ONCE out of like 15 times.
Does anyone know what's wrong with it?

It's the same with other kind of uploads I do, like Megaupload, except Youtube's worse.

Connectivity Problem

slasherbaven — Sat, 01 Sep 2007 22:18:49 +0800

Alright, it's like this:

1. I connect to the internet. Open Firefox, and the main page appears within a second.
2. I turn on my utorrent. Refresh main page, takes a WHOLE MINUTE to appear.
3. Turn off my utorrent, then turn on my Ares. Refresh main page, takes a WHOLE MINUTE to appear.
4. Turn off my Ares. Send file to a friend. Refresh main page, takes a WHOLE MINUTE to appear, but when file sending nears completion(at about 75%++), it goes back to normal.

So basically, whenever I do P2P, it greatly hogs my connection.
utorrent and Ares downloads were at like, 0-2 kbps.
Even ran Spybot S&D and Spyware Doctor, still no changes.

Can anyone help???

=EDIT=
Problem started on Thursday night, if that means anything.

P2P connection problem

slasherbaven — Sun, 26 Nov 2006 09:48:44 +0800

Hey, I have a problem with a p2p program I use.

See, I had eMule++
It used to work just fine, but recently, it can't seem to connect.
Times out everytime.

Then I got Shareaza.
Tried connecting a couple of times, but it always fails.

And Shareaza said I had a half-open connection.
I have no idea what that is.... so if anyone here knows and can help me go about that problem, you rock!

Thanks.
