He doesn't need to offer you ANYTHING, so stop prancing around like a wannabe. Every single picture he needs is in PAGE 1 of this thread. For God's sake if you're not going to use Google, at least you the FIRST PAGE

If what the 10 of thousand Sam Fisher working behind the scene is correct, the intel i collected is pointing towards - ExTgAmer as Osphotic dupe account.

I got a set of 4 torx screwdrivers, 2 of them T8 and T10 over at Sea Electronics in SS2 for RM8. I think could have gone lower  Not as well made as the ones from Ace Hardware though. This post has been edited by beetlemaniac: Jun 19 2008, 05:23 PM

i might have told some of u i kena 3rod, but actually i didnt check... until today.
my box is having 2ROD with 0011 error code (CPU overheat).... can still boot to dashboard, 2ROD only happens after a few minutes playing game. any idea on how to fix this? change fan? nos? x-clamp?
btw the box is a japanese unit, been working fine for the past 2 years until i didnt turn it on for like 1~2 months recently

Just drop by any local or neighborhood hardware shop, u can buy tons of screws n washers in very low price. The fastest and easiest to find substitute for Artic Silver is use hardcore liquor...Jack Daniels and Chivas my favorite choice for clubbing and clean component. About the thermal paste, u can find any PC shop and i got my coolermaster thermal paste in IT hypermart. if you wanna ever buy a gpu heatsink, there's alot in ebay and they will ship to malaysia or find in sg.wang IT floor. Anyone needs a guideline made by Guardian in pdf format to print it out, you can download it here: http://rapidshare.com/files/139154701/xclamp.pdf.htmlim gonna start diagnose my xbox tomolo, god bless This post has been edited by benghee: Aug 22 2008, 11:16 AM
