Do a low level format lor...deep cleansing

mia sounds like facial treatment advertisement....

haha...that one for easy to understand ..well, can always do a factory clean format ..erase all data (even the one that on the surface of the HDD )...this will clear your HDD like new

what la u guys...so fast page 2 liao....

btw yesterday played Dirt 2 again, turn everything to low and off AA, still getting ~30fps only..i might as well turn it on for eyecandy ^^
and i also accidentally played the game with overclock setting 500/1350/800
temperature was around 97C, and is slowly increasing to 98C, although very slow la..it's like every 30seconds i see temperature jump to 98C for a split second, then drop back 97C, and that is after at least 30 minutes gameplay..i guess this clock speed is usable

97C is consider really ok after OC ...maybe i should done the same with mine also ...

btw the OC setting was played before i drop all the setting to all low...iirc, my settings are:
2x MSAA
Mirrors: Mid
Night time Lighting: Mid
Skidmark: on
Distance Vehicle: Mid
Crowd: Low (don wanna off..empty stadium racing really no syok...)
Driver: Medium
Tree: Medium

the rest, low

and with those stress setting(especially the AA), and OC setting, i get 97C after 20-30 minute gameplay...although the left palmrest is very hot, but the temperature is definitely within acceptable range...as long as nothing is higher then 98C...

eh .. how to run factory reformat ??
I deleted my factory image restore ^^
for HP i really dnt now how to enter factory image part, only able to enter once when there is no OS ~~

when i do furmark last time, kena 98 highest b4...
thing is acceptable de gua....

98C? mine already kena 98C with factory clock on native res + 2x MSAA stress test....furmark really cannot compare, it stress ur GPU the way games normally wouldnt, so don mind that one really...

btw the average framerate was 22-30fps, and occasional drop to >15fps..maybe cos i am downloading and the download manager is written data to disk? haha...

Mine furmark with factory clock same as BBX...my guess it would be higher after OC ..

actually i got try before la... 550(or was it 575)/1450/900
within 3 minutes already 98C come out...hahaha

My guess Dv6 won't have any keyboard issue as it was confirmed that laptops with keyboard Ctrl & Fn key switched (just like S42) only will encounter the problem

.....
i still cannot understand y benq does it so....
@bb, wanna have a game of HoN tonite?
getting addicted to it...but still...very dota...

haha ^^...got another one hooked with HoN ...

@want
Well, not just BenQ...seems like others got the same keyboard as S42 and iirc its Lenovo Y460 also got the same keyboard style

actually i like LoL more...by reading the wiki...
too bad cant play it here....


still i dunno wat is the reason switching the fn and ctrl key? it is the standard for so long...

I also dun understand why the switched it ...quite annoyed with it at first but then get used to it ..

Added on April 7, 2010, 11:04 ammaybe it's the keyboard bandwidth mapping thing that they had to design that way? although our keyboard still cannot press more then 5 keys at once, and some keys only 2 at a time..
