3.5mm Y cable

vkashin — Mon, 11 Jun 2012 00:01:29 +0800

Hi
I'm wondering if there is a 3.5mm Y-splitter/adapter thing available for purchase?

something like this, but rather than 1 Male to 2 female, is there a reversed, e.g. 1 female end to 2 male ends?
I want to be able to output to my 2.1 speaker from 2 devices i.e. 1 from laptop, 1 from ipod, without having to switch the plugs all the time..
Sorry if this is not the correct forum to post this..

Windows XP Pro SP3 Unable To Connect to Internet

vkashin — Mon, 28 Dec 2009 13:21:46 +0800

Hi
I'm stumbling upon a really weird problem with my Windows XP SP3 installation. It was working fine previously, but since it's becoming quite laggy after a year I decided to reformat it over the x'mas weekend. Installation is smooth, and I installed Windows plus the drivers for my Dell Inspiron 6400 like usual. And at the beginning it was working like a charm, however after several windows updates I find that my Windows is no longer able to connect to the internet anymore..

There is no problem with the hardware of the system because I'm typing this using the same system but on a different HDD running Windows 7. Any idea what is wrong? I really prefer Windows XP because even though Windows 7 has a nicer interface and an awesome super-taskbar, I still think that Windows XP runs the fastest on my aging system..

If there's any extra information please let me know I'll try to answer it ASAP. Thanks!

popups in real media files..

hi
i need help here
i have quite alot animes in Real videos (.RM, .RMVB) format. the trouble is that everytime i play it using RealOne Player, they'll pop-up an internet browser linking to some website.. then i switched to Media Player Classic, the problem doesnt happen. However, yesterday i've updated my K-Lite Codec Pack and now even MPC will pop-up Internet Explorer, linking to the webpage! it's very annoying, as the pop-ups will keep on coming out when i forward the anime!
can anyone tell me how to disable this? thanks!!

[wta] Canon Ixus i 4megapix

hi

I need help for my canon ixus i.
It was working fine for a long time already until recently. I cannot turn it on anymore even if i've already charged the battery to full. When i press the power button there's totally no response at all, and if i leave the battery inside long enough the camera will start to feel warm.

i'm trying to find where can i fix my canon camera.. the warranty is over obviously, and most shops i ask at lowyat / sg wang area say they only can help send to canon. Will it cost much? are there any shops in kl area which i could just send it for evaluation first? i'm not really willing to spend much on repair since it's an old camera. so can anyone here tell me where can i find 3rd party canon camera repair shop? please PM me! thanks!

canon cameras take clear photos, that's why i like my ixus i.. it was my first and only digital camera..
