Hi,

So can we install the window from the USB device like pendrive?
I check the boot list in my bios setting and there is usb device in the list so i guess my laptop should
able to do it but the problem is i dunno the step to make a bootable usb device and what step should i perform
to install using usb device.

Anyone can help on this?

Hi All,

I own a laptop which use the AC adapter with output rating 19V-4.74A. Recently due to
electricity problem at my area the adapter is completely break down.
However i have another AC adapter from my old laptop which give the 19V 3.68A output.
Is it OK i use it at my new laptop? Will it cause any problem due to its lower Ampere output to my laptop?

laststep — Sat, 30 Aug 2008 23:14:23 +0800

Hi all,

I have a terrible time with my laptop. All of sudden my screen from 14.1" change to 12" because my
laptop not longer be able to detect the 1280x1080 resolution.
Now it stick to the 1024x768 resolution and the right side of my screen become totally black off.
I try to goto the display properties to change the resolution, but the higher resolution available is 1024x768
and not the 1280x1080 as previously available.

This problem occur few months ago. At the early phase, when i restarting my laptop it still able to detect the
1280x1080 resolution sometimebut now not at all.

I wonder if this is the hardware problem or the windows problem...
Below is my laptop display properties:

Chip Type : Intel GMA 950
DAC type : Internal
Memory Size : 64MB
Adapter String : Mobile Intel 945 Express Chipset Family
Intel Information : Intel Video BIOS

Hope someone can help me on this. Thanks!!

Hi, i stay at the apartment near the INTI there. For the past 1 year i am subscribing the PenangFon
service, but i feel unsatisfied with its service mainly because of its frequent down issue and high latency
to online game and also cannot achieve the speed it promise.

So, i was thinking to subscribe other broadband service, and the first that cross my mind is the celcom 3G because
i hear that it didnt block the p2p and it suite me well cause i frequently travel between KL and Penang.
So, whoever live in penang area feel free to drop by and share your exp with us. Please state:
1) Area :
2)package :
3)Average Speed :
4)Any Issue :
5)Running any p2p program? Hows the speed?

Anyway, few questions about the wireless broadband service.
1) I hear that for Rm68 package, a monthly usage is only 5G, is this apply to the Rm98 package too?
2) Did the different brand of USB modern made the different on the speed we can acheive?

Thanks in advance!!!
