Floor felt warm/hot

Currently staying in a condo. A particular spot on my floor feels quite warm or hot, but the surrounding tiles have no such problem. I'm suspecting the spot to be where lighting is installed at the unit below. But is it normal to be able to feel the heat from lighting below through the floor???

SATA II controller couldn't detect SATA I HDD

I have a P5Q3 motherboard which supports SATA II. I tried to use my old SATA HDD (WD80) with it, but the mobo couldn't detect the HDD at all. However, it can detect a new SATA HDD (WD640) without any problem. What am I doing wrong? I thought any SATA HDD can be used with both SATA I and II?

Greenlife health supplements by Groway

I was introduced to the Greenlife Colostrum with Manuka Honey health drink by a friend. Before this, never heard of the Greenlife brand or Groway. This is their website:

Anyone familiar with these products, or have taken them before? Just want to check whether it's considered 'safe' and not some kind of con product/company.

Screetching noise from tyre/car when rain

eurayle — Fri, 04 Apr 2008 09:22:35 +0800

I'm driving a Kelisa. When there's heavy rain and deep puddle of water on the road, my tyre (I think it's my tyre cause the sound come from the back) will give out a screetching noise when my car drive through water.

I've sent my car to the Perodua Service Centre and complaint about this, they told me that they couldn't test because it was not raining on that day.

Previously, my car has experienced humming noise from the back (I think it was the back tyre too) when doing turning, usually at a certain speed and when I press the brake pedal (for the turning). Friend said is wheel bearing problem. The Perodua Service Centre that time changed my brake pad. After that, until now I haven't encountered this humming noise again.

So, is this screetching noise related to my previous humming noise problem? Or this screetching noise is actually normal due to the water or something?

What does "reset network adapter" do?

Currently I'm using Vista RC2 with nVidia nForce NIC. Sometimes when using uTorrent, my network connection would just suddenly die. No matter how I tried to repair it using the options given by Windows Network Diagnostics, I couldn't get an IP from my router until I restart the PC. I believe this is driver problem, as there are other users on the internet facing similar problem.

Anyway, I want to ask, what does the option: Reset the network adapter "Local Area Connection" actually do? After I selected that option, it showed "No drivers are installed for this device" message in the device status of my NVIDIA nForce Networking Controller.
