Computer Troubleshooting And Repair

[arnoldtan]

hi guys.. just want to ask what's the difference between IDE and SATA hard drives? thanks.

 

first yung attached cable nila...yung sa ide parang belt, sa SATA parang manipis...second medyo mabilis nang konti yung sata and support nang sata up to 10000rpm. pero depende pa rin kung support nang motherboard mo ang sata.

Sir question po. Attached pix is one of my memory for my laptop, now I want to upgrade and buy a new single 2GB memory card but dont know which one.

 

Sabi ng friends ko 2GB DDR II 667MHz ang kaparehas nito. Any advice please?

 

Its a Compaq Centrino Duo bought around 2006 in Dubai. If I put 2 pcs of 2GB of Memory, ok lang po ba? Salamat po. :mtc:

 

first check mo muna yung manual or website kung hanggang ilan o kaya support na memory nang laptop mo. baka 2 gig lang ang kaya? ilan ba ang memory slot niyan? etc....yung picture kasi nakalagaqay 512MB DDR2 533. so ibig sabihin niyan puede mo lang bilhin ay ddr2 533, kasi mali ang sabi nang friend mo na 667, baka hindi gumana kung lalagyan mo nang 667. so better check din sa compaq supplier na compatible na memory para sa laptop mo, hindi lahat nang memory puede dyan.

Bro, tanong ko lang po kc ung NOD32 ko block nya laht ng website. (forbidden) d n ako makapag internet s home. Pano po ttangalin ung pag block ng NOD 32. thanks

 

 

or kaya check mo Advanced Setup ng NOD32 then find "exclusion" - dun pwede mo ilagay mga files. folders and others files na pwede ignore while/during scanning and cleaning - nakakabagal kc ng performance ng pc minsan pero be aware sa mga viruses..

Umm, the biggest difference is that IDE is being Phased out. Its getting kinda rare to find a dependable brand new IDE HDD. SATA HDDs are the currently mass produced ones. Mas madali humanap na pamalit kung sakaling gusto mong palitan.

 

Meron pa rin namang makikitang mga IDE HDDs kaso kadalasan, mga surplus na lang. So, chambahan ang quality.

any advice or help would be appreciated.

Laptop is a Compaq Presario c500. Nahulog siya. Umandar pero yung display has shifted to the left and to upwards. Baka puwede ma tulongan.

 

Everything is okay. Except for the display. Yung laptop kasi walang dial unlike sa CRT na may horizontal at vertical control. At yung mga bago may mga auto setting.

since nahulog sya and you've tried using an external monitor, most probably, may natanggal o nasira syang internals.... take it to a repair shop.

Went to an authorized service center of HP, replace daw yung LCD. They quoted 20+k for the LCD.

that's what i thought.

a suggestion is also to bring it to a shop which repairs laptop computers. they might have some cheaper options.

May crack po ba ang LCD? Try reseating the LCD cable from the board.. It might work...

you need to run Vista 64bit, not the 32bit version so that you can utilize yung buong 4GB.
