QUOTE(Bahir. @ Jun 25 2006, 10:02 PM) I hate to be the rotten apple (no pun intended) but i got my MacBook 2.0 yesterday and today IT WONT TURN ON!! I'm keeping my G5 for the time being.... lots of QC problems with Intel-macs nowadays.... It worked this morning then a couple of hours later, it didnt! wont even turn on..! Took it to the Mac shop in Ikano and the guy tried a while then said that the RAM (i had upgraded to 1stick 1G) is NOT the problem and he didnt know why...! So im gonna have to take it to the Apple Service Center tomorrow. Man im irritated..oh and i then took it to the Mac shop in Low Yat Plaza (i live in KL) and the guy tried the boot disk to no avail... NO i didnt install anything, not Boot Camp, not Windows, nothing..the guys at the shop asked me this so i thought id clear it up... man. Just when i had bought the new ori Football Manager 06 to play....NOT a good way to start my Apple affair.  |

QUOTE(lokgotz @ Jul 5 2006, 12:16 AM) anyone here managed to get boot camp installed and using windows XP?? did you update your MacBook firmware....?i couldnt partition my macbook coz boot camp said it cant be verified and asked me to put in the mac os x cd and repair it...... i didnt do it yet.... just wanna know if anyone else has got this problem...... P.S. my macbook is factory settings....means i didnt format it or partition it b4.......but the error that boot camp gave me made my macbook seemed like it was partitioned b4..... run "fsck" command via Single Mode to verify that your HD is ok.... go to the Apple website and follow closely every instructions given to install Boot Camp and WinXP...

QUOTE(lokgotz @ Jul 5 2006, 09:57 AM) yeah...i updated the firmware...... reboot your machine while holding Command + S key until the Apple logo disappears and come across a bunch of white text on a black background aka DOS-like command prompt....how do i run fsck?? i printed out the manual and followed closely the instructions....but cannot also...i cant even install xp yet.....stuck at partition of the drive... from there, type "fsck -f", press enter.... it'll check your HD for problems.... once everything completes, take note of the (if any) unusual error messages.... to exit, just type "reboot" and press enter..... |

QUOTE(kbandito @ Jul 10 2006, 12:12 PM) I am off to buy a Macbook, but I'm concern about a few things about this batch of Macbook. - none so far, it only happens to specific batches, and mind you, it's white, so don't expect too much....- Discolouration, any complain so far in Malaysia? - High temparature, goes up to 60 celcius? That is just too hot. Any bad thing about this batch of Macbook yet? And da, how much is the 1GB Macbook in Ringgit? - every processor is hot under load.... please find me a system that don't require an HSF.... - instead of bad things, try focusing on the good things, wil'ye....? - you're better off asking the resellers as they charge different pricing and RAM price fluctuates.... |

Bloody hell... didn't know that iLife takes up so much space! reinstall your OS X with the Clean Install option, avoid installing language files, printer drivers and trial softwares.... that should save up some of your precious HD space.... |

QUOTE(kbandito @ Jul 12 2006, 11:37 PM) I never used Mac before. 1) Macs can handle....Today I got to hear experience of one of my friend who used Mac, what he said is we won't get used to Mac if we are used to window. He went back to window after using Mac. Don't know, just knew him for 1 day Just want to ask, this is what i will do with my MB if I choose to buy them: 1) Online browsing, heavily 2) Adobe of Macromedia 3) BT 4) Movie watching, can it support AVI or RMVB and so on? Any comment? 2) Adobe or Macromedia can be handled, although slow.... it'll be fast in 2007 onwards 3) Mac community has a fair share of BT users, I'm BT'ing 24/7 4) There's always VLC and RealPlayer for Mac bottom line is, if you're comfortable with Windows and don't enjoy using OS X, you're better off with a PC laptop. The Intel-based Macs (thanks to Boot Camp) are designed so that Mac users can opt to boot into Windows to run their apps not available on OS X....

QUOTE(kbandito @ Jul 12 2006, 11:44 PM) Ok thanks. what codecs, audio or video....? dvix, xvid, or wmv....?Another, some people say if you use window in MB they cannot suport certain codecs, So? if it runs fine on a Mac, why do you still need Windows....? no offence but seriously, you sounded hesitation to leave Windows altogether.... you may not like to hear this, but if you wish to stick on to Windows for major tasks, then the MB is not for you. Don't hop on the bandwagon when you see ppl starting to get themselves an MB. There are reasons why they switch. And bear in mind that with an MB, no matter how you utilise Windows on it, be it a default OS; Mac OS is always and will be part of your MB, there's no way you can get rid of it.... it is the very essence as to why you can dual-boot Windows: Boot Camp - and it's essentially a Mac add-on feature....
