My samsung TV picture is jumping like crazy. Sent this video to the Samsung representative, straight away tell me it's the panels faulty and need replacing. I suspect the fella too lazy to come, just straight away say that it's panel knowing the cost of panel not worth to change.

Anyone can offer any solution or any contact to repair ? i'm located in Penang

Dear fellow forumers, would like to ask if any of guys has encountered this sort incident before?

For our apartment's kitchen, we first put on the white tiles on the wall first. Then the ID contractor installed the kitchen's cabinet. When this was done, we were so happy to see our kitchen begin to resemble what we saw in the design. Then about a week later, the Hood's installer came to install the hood. I wasn't around when he was installing the hood. After he left, I got the shock of my life when i realised that some of the wall tiles above the counter has cracked. Anyone has encounter such issue before?? Really broke my heart seeing nice kitchen wall turn into such a state .

Partition vanished by itself

Hi there folks.. got some problem with HD, need those kaki pro out there for advice.

My problem started when my brother bought a new Sony Ericsson K610i. while in the midst of installing software from the CD-ROM that comes with the phone, his PC hanged and after restarting it, he gets a "disk boot failure, INSERT SYSTEM DISK AND PRESS ENTER.... " message. Since he ran into some trouble while trying to reformate his HD recently, he made the conclusion is time to declare time of dead for the HD. Few days later, he tried to install the software using my relatively new PC, same thing happened. PC hanged, restart and got the "disk boot failure bla bla bla" message.

Since i was kinda lazy to find out wad was wrong, I thought of trying to reinstall the XP. When asked where do I wanna install the OS, it says that there is a 80GB (the size of my HD) of UNPARTITIONED SPACE!! My question is, what happened to all the partitions? And is there any way to recover data (mp3, audiobooks and Office Docs) from an harddisk that lost it's partitions?

Hope you guys get what i'm trying to say with my amateur english.. . . . Thanks in advance to all you guys' help
