R@v3n Posted February 9, 2005 Share Posted February 9, 2005 i try to the command "fdisk /mbr" but it turned out like Invalid media type... damn i need to recover the files... any help?<{POST_SNAPBACK}> It would seem as if your hard drives already busted, you should bring it to a friend's house and try accessing it there. If it still doesn't work, it needs servicing already... :cry: Almost on the same note... My hardisk has beem formatted using NTFS now I reverted it back to FAT32, yesterday for some reason I had to reformat it again (FAT32) but formatting won't continue after 72%. Do I call PC express for a new hardisk now or is there a light at the end of the tunnel ?<{POST_SNAPBACK}> There's may be bad sector at that part of the drive which is why the format command is taking longer at that part. It can't read the sector and is trying to make sure if it should be marked as BAD or not. :cry: P.S. sorry for the slow replies but I'm working on our thesis and can't log-in too frequently...

R@v3n Posted February 9, 2005 Share Posted February 9, 2005 can I format my travelmate 2000 using NTFS? Acer only provided 3 sets of CD for recovery. THey did not included a separate CD Driver.<{POST_SNAPBACK}> You CAN format it using NTFS BUT I doubt if you can use your recovery cds since it reformats the drive to the default setting which (i guess ) is FAT32. I personally just throw away those CDs especially if they're proprietary since they install all sorts of BLOATWARE on your PC that you just may not use! Quote Link to comment
HimuraButosay Posted February 9, 2005 Share Posted February 9, 2005 Gud pm everyone!!! Can u please refer me to a computer shop that repairs laptops. my problem is that the laptop screen keeps on flickering. i have this problem for a long time already but after several minutes after starting up it would return to normal. but starting this week it would not stop flickering. can i ask also how much would it cost me? thanks a million! <{POST_SNAPBACK}>hi, read your post just now...you can bring your unit to the IBM service/repair center in eastwood, libis... as for the price, the repair cost would depend on how bad the problem of your display... my two cents worth :headsetsmiley: Quote Link to comment

Problem is even if I have an orig xp pro from my other laptop, where can I get the appropriate drivers for the travelmate? The drivers they provided is in a system cd which can be used in conjunction with the recovery cd only. Quote Link to comment

The drivers for the mouse thingee at the lower center of your laptop? Can't that be detected by Windows XP? Maybe you're pertaining to the useful utilities included like the internet button or something? Anyway, try downloading the drivers needed from the internet. That's what I usually do in cases like these. :hypocritesmiley: Take care of your laptop!!!! :cool: Quote Link to comment

TeeUp Posted February 11, 2005 Share Posted February 11, 2005 magandang araw po sa ating mga abogadong de kampanilya, meron lamang ako nais ikonsulta, ang misis ko po ay US passport holder (american Citizen) ngunit ng nakuha nya ang US citizenship nya, hindi nya sinurender ang filipino passport nya, ibig bang sabihin ay Philippine citizen pa din sya?, or kailangan nya pa iproseso ang dual citizenship nya? nais sana nyang maging dual citizen, magpahanggang ngayon nasa pa ang p\Philippine passport nya, kakarenew lang nya ng passport ngayong enero, valid ba ito?, Salamat po sa maagap na kasagutan<{POST_SNAPBACK}> kaibigang johndoe, ang sagot sa iyong katanunga ay depende kung paano nabigyan ng US passport ang iyong asawa. kung ito ay dahil ipinanganak siya dito sa US o di kaya ang isa sa mga magulang nya ay US citizen, sya ay US citizen by birth. at kung kasabay nito, (at least) isa sa kanyang mga magulang ay Pilipino, siya rin ay Filipino citizen. hindi mawawalang bisa ang kanyan Pinoy passport dahilan na sya ay nabigyan ng US passport. sa madaling sabi, siya ay tinatawag na dual citizen. kapag halimbawa nakuha nya ang US passport sa pamamagitan ng naturalization, ayon sa ating batas, nawala ang kanyang pagiging Pilipino sabay ng pagsumpa nya nga katapatan sa banyagang watawat. ganunpaman, noong taong 2003 ipinasa ang Republic Act 9225 o kung tawagin ay ang Citizenship Retention and Re-Acquisition Act na nagsasabing maaring makuhang muli ang pagiging Pilipino ng asawa mo kapag siya ay nag-file ng petition for reaquisition of Filipino citizenship at siya ay manumpa ng katapatan sa ating watawat. ang ating gobyerno ay may website para sa mga katanungan tunko dito: (http://www.gov.ph/faqs/dualcitizenship.asp) Where do I apply for re-acquisition of Philippine Citizenship if I am in the Philippines? A former natural-born Filipino citizen who is already in the Philippines and registered in the Bureau of Immigration shall file a petition under oath to the Commissioner of Immigration for the cancellation of the Alien Certicate of Registration (ACR) and issuance of an Identification Certificate (IC) as the case may be, under RA 9225. A former natural-born citizen who is already in the Philippines but has not registered with the BI within 60 days from date of arrival shall file a petition under oath to the Commissioner of Immigration for the issuance of an IC under RA 9225. Where do I apply for re-acquisition of Philippine Citizenship if I am overseas? A former natural-born citizen who is abroad but is a BI-registered alien shall file a petition under oath to the nearest Philippine Embassy or Consulate for evaluation. Thereafter, the Embassy or Consulate shall forward the entire records to the Commissioner of Immigration for the cancellation of the ACR and issuance of an IC under RA 9225. A former natural-born citizen who is abroad and is not a BI-registered alien shall file a petition under oath to the nearest Philippine Embassy or Consulate for the issuance of an IC under RA 9225. What is the Oath of Allegiance? The Oath of Allegiance is the final act that confers Philippine citizenship. It reads as follows: "I,________________, solemnly swear that I will support and defend the Constitution of the Republic of the Philippines and obey the laws and local orders promulgated by the duly constituted authorities of the Philippines, and I hereby declare that I recognise and accept the supreme authority of the Philippines and will maintain true faith and allegiance thereto, and that I impose this obligation upon myself voluntarily without mental reservation or purpose of evasion." sanay kahit papano ay nabigyang linaw ang iyong katanungan.

HimuraButosay Posted February 11, 2005 Share Posted February 11, 2005 just additional security sir. has anyone tried either firewall?<{POST_SNAPBACK}> i've read some of the reviews last year...what they say in the reviews is that fortinet is better than sonicwall but a bit more expensive (that's why we didn't get it) :headsetsmiley: Quote Link to comment
