    Oh Adrian, you're so kind!!
    Even my PC doesn't have 1GB RAM in it. LoL

    Sigh, I think it's time for me to upgrade my PC.
    No, maybe I'll get myself a laptop. Since I'll be studying in Kampar soon.

    I think we are forgetting that Adrian did something kind and donated a box to a family. So instead of going oh even i dont have enough Ram than this person or oh my computer is not as good as this guy we should really focus on the fact that the boss helped a family out of his good will

    So enough of the dick comparing already

    I agree.:)

    At least the family has a computer to use.

    LOL! Guys, I believe he's just pointing out that the donated system is actually quite powerful. Well, I hope it is.

    Anyway, I just heard that they "killed" the PC recently. LOL! I wonder what happened. I will probably drop by to have a looksie when I go back to Penang this weekend.

    Anyways. I will look into my stash and see what parts I can donate... might be old and odd parts though. Hmmm.

    Ahhh... It looks like they fried the motherboard. It just doesn't boot up, no beeps, nothing.

    unfortunately, no i wasn't
    i was just pointing out the fact that although i still think of myself as a computer enthusiast and a part time gamer, my pc's so antiquated that i'm not able to play most games anymore:?

    yes i do realise that we should be focusing on the deed, but it was the first thing that came to my mind when i saw the specs :)

    Well, no worries. This is a good time to get yourself a new C2D system! :twisted:

    Found the problem. You wouldn't believe what it was... THE HARD DRIVE! :shock:

    I have no idea how it happened but there appears to be a short in the Seagate 120GB hard drive. When it's plugged in, the PSU won't start up. Remove it and the PSU starts up.

    Arghhhhhhhhhhhhhh.... :wall: :wall:

    Just a long-delayed update. I swapped out the dead drive for a 320GB hard drive. And I'm happy to report, their PC's running great. :thumb:

    You bought a new HDD for them?

    Actually, I gave them my 320GB which I bought a couple of months ago for backup. Now have to rely on a smaller 120GB that I just bought.

    HDD is really dirt cheap now. I just bought W5000AAKS for RM420.
