Broken Notebook Keyboard

decypher — Tue, 15 Sep 2009 11:51:21 +0800

Hi guys,

I'm currently using a Compaq Notebook, but due to an accident, one of the keys (on the keyboard) is now broken and beyond repair...

Is it possible for me to purchase the spare part and fix it back on my own?

Cat for Adoption

decypher — Thu, 27 Aug 2009 01:00:20 +0800

Hello everyone. It pains me to give my cat away, but my new landlady doesn't allow cats in her house. I can't bear to leave him on the streets to fend for himself, therefore I'm putting him up for adoption. Here are some pictures of him:

His name is Friday because the day I took him in is a Friday (I know... cheesy). He's about a year old and is quite reserved. He likes to lie down and observe people, before getting closer in hope of a stroke on the back.

I'm currently in Melaka until the end of next month when I relocate at USJ.

Please PM me if you are interested.

Thanks.

I got a call few days ago from a representative from Kelly IT regarding a job at a local firm.

How do they work? Will I have to pay a fee to them for getting me a job?

SQL Unicode Tables

I'm trying to input some chinese characters into a table.

But after import, it all appears as ????? in phpMyAdmin.

How to set unicode support for table?

Thanks in advance.

[addedon]March 22, 2009, 3:04 pm[/addedon]Ok. I just managed to set Collation with COLLATE utf8_unicode_ci. It seems to have set the collation to unicode (i can see chinese characters in my phpMyAdmin), but on my website it still shows "????".

What could be the cause of the problem?

Can anybody recognize this tune?

Erm, I believe this music is often used for cha-cha. If you know the title of this music, please let me know. Thank you!

(I recorded this in MBO Cinema Melaka, it was played before a movie starts)

The file is in .AMR format. Sorry for using Rapidshare. I have no idea how else to upload the file.

Compaq V3759TU Display Problem

decypher — Fri, 11 Apr 2008 09:09:38 +0800

I recently bought this laptop with the following specs:

Intel Core 2 Duo T5550 1.83GHz Processor 2MB 667MHz FSB
1GB DDR2 667MHz ( Max 2GB)
160GB SATA Hard Disk
DVDRW+/- 8x dual layer drive
Intel Graphic Media Accelerator X3100 up to 256MB
14.1" WXGA TFT LCD w/BrightView Technology Screen
Integrated WebCam 1.3Mega Pixels
6 Cells Li-Ion Battery
Integrated Bluetooth
Integrated Wireless 802.11a/b/g LAN
Integrated 56k Modem & 10/100Mbps LAN

My problem is that whenever i try to load games that involve fullscreen display, the driver loads the game on a smaller resolution. I currently run on a 1200x800 desktop resolution. The game in question will only display 800x600 on a 1200x800 background.

For your information I have installed Windows Vista and this driver (Mobile Intel 965 Express Chipset Family Video Driver) from here (http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareList?os=2093&lc=en&cc=us&dlc=en&product=3653282&lang=en). There is another NVidia option but I couldn't install.

I reverted back to the original configuration which is the "Standard VGA driver". This time the games could not run at all. The error messages that return were "Unable to display screen resolution" and "Unable to detect Directx" kind of messages.

What driver should I install to fix this problem? Or is there any settings that I missed?

Please help me. Thank you in advance!

Unique Blogs in Malaysia

decypher — Thu, 24 May 2007 19:30:31 +0800

Let's start a listing of cool blogs in Malaysia. This is not a compilation of any tom, duck* or harry blogs out there. We want the most unique blogs in Malaysia.

Take the old Hokkien blog at http://hokkienlang.blogsome.com/ for example. I have never seen a second blog written (almost) entirely in hokkien. Though it hasn't been updated for quite some time already, it's always a big laugh when I try to read.

So, anymore unique blogs to share?
