ibook g4 1.2ghz startup problem

gaijin_otoko — Sat, 14 Feb 2009 22:33:55 +0800

hi all,

got a problem with my ibook g4. spec:

ibook g4 1.2ghz
256mb built-in + 512mb addon
radeon 9200 32mb
hitachi 150gb 5400rpm hdd
osx tiger 10.4.11

when i installed the 512mb ram addon, the ibook could not boot into osx (can be turned on but just the screen just...black), but when i take it out, osx can be boot with zero issues.

dunno whether the problem is a faulty ram or a faulty ram slot. can anyone help?

thanks

statics burned my hdd

gaijin_otoko — Sat, 24 Feb 2007 00:14:27 +0800

Hi,

just wanna ask is there any way to recover data from a hdd burned by static?
I don't actually know what had happened but my bro said it was static coz we change the cables (PATA) several times even the power cables, but the bios couldn't detect anything each time.

so now, i'm wondering is there any other way other than rebuilding the hdd, that can help me recover the data in it?

also, is there a shop that can help me recover the files in the hdd should there be no other way?

thanks in advance.

Wii Adaptor burned/Wii burned

gaijin_otoko — Thu, 01 Feb 2007 23:16:23 +0800

hi guys!desperately need help here! and fast!

got my wii us version last night.

forget bout the voltage differences (aka no stepdown converter)

when i plug the wii to the socket and turn it on "Pop"

and it wont turn on anymore. My bet is that the adaptor burn out but could it be that the wii itself burned out too? (worst case scenario)

any ideas what happened? if i need to just replace the adaptor is there any shop near shah alam/kl?

help and suggestions appreciated! and fast! and thanks!

The Importance of DSL filter, no?

gaijin_otoko — Wed, 28 Jun 2006 20:08:47 +0800

I've been encountering several snailmyx dced during the evening almost EVERYDAY recently...dunno wuts happening to TMnut though

later i found a dsl filter when i was cleaning the store and well wut the hell install it and waheyyyy! suddenly snailmyx got connected and it was like instantly connected after i install the dsl filter

i can't point out anything else except that the filter may did something that made the line much ok-er than using normal splitter coz when i disconnect it n use the old splitter, well snailmyx dced again

anyone agreed to this fact?
