Yeah, it's Zune.

Actually there's not much use for 2GB ram also since you won't be playing Crysis on it

1GB is enough for Eee friendly apps lor. I use 1GB only w/o pagefile also no problems. Storage is a different story altogether though.

Thinking of building a cooling pad with HDD for the Eee for 24/7 operation.

Gotta slim it down to fit the internal flash memory.

How to install Winxp into SDHC card

Using a USB DVD drive or via a converter... pop in CD... click next next next ... custom install... uncheck all the things you don't use.. next next next.. finish. Done

But I use Openoffice and AVG anti virus instead with Winxp Nlite-d... about 2.4GB left.

Google and download this tiny application called AltWindowDrag... add this to your startup.

This allows you to drag menus around by pressing alt + pointing anywhere in the menu.

Yeah...its gets a lil warm but that's what Eeectl is for

Time to pic spam...

After all this time of procrastinating, finally got my glossy screen protector Now the color is so shiny



And a fugly bag.. only reason I got this is cos it's not too expensive and can squeeze in the AC adaptor + external HDD without being too big

All buy in Taipei wan...

Actually now the Eeepc accessories are really coming out di.

Adata even got a white SDHC card specially for Eeepc.

Some other bag/sleeve options available:

Wo Ai Tai Mei

NT350 but I paid NT500 for it cos I like the sales

Cheapest way of doing that is get a few friends together, buy one of those 15.4" or 17" notebook screen protector, cut it up and divide it among yourselves.

The one I bought is specifically for 7" screen but just that there ARE alternatives.

Any difference between 1GB and 2GB?

time for more pic spam... this thread is getting boring leh.

To recap.. I've been using the Eeepc for 24/7 operation (basically BT'ing ) in conjunction with Eeectl to lower down the cpu speed and increasing the fan speed to 80% ( I find this 405Mhz + 80% fan speed the perfect balance.. keeps the temps at < 40C )

However, the bottom of the Eeepc still gets rather warm from the prolonged operation so I've been searching for a coolerpad for it but all that's available in the market are waaaaaaay too big for the Eee until today...

Went to Carrefour and came across one of these Carrefour branded lock-tight box which I bought to keep my extra PC stuffs moisture free (its airtight and I threw in a couple bags of silica)



This is actually meant for use in the fridge so it comes with one of these a plastic spacer so the water from veges/meat can accumulate below the box



Since I'm using the box to keep HDD's, rams and cpu's.. I don't need that spacer but it fits the Eeepc just nicely



It basically just raises up the Eee about 0.8cm from the table surface thus giving the intakes more room to breathe.

I just use the ini below. So far no issues.




Edit: Just realised I made a typo there. I'm running 405Mhz

Did the ini work for you?

Anyway, ram's cheap now.

I run 405Mhz for BT to keep the temps down and also to extend batt life while surfing ( 2-3 tabs still ok). Otherwise... just whack it back to full speed lor.

Shouldn't be too much help since it's running the same vcore anyway. I tested AC draw earlier and it's not too much different.

I have my battery removed with 40% charge most of the time so just for sh1ts and giggles, am charging it up again now for a BatteryEater benchmark run later on.

Speaking of which...go try it lar... only 700kb in size

Use Eeectl can wat.... I'm still on 0401 leh

I think they say that because 2GB sodimms have higher chances of incompatibility.

few pages already tok kok on this di... but here's a pic

Spam pic kan senang.

Frankly speaking, I really don't suggest upgrading the bios unless there's real significant fixes lor.

No point taking unnecessarily risk.

Pic spam of the day..

Optimus Prime approves the latest addition to the computing collection

yup.. that's why I keep the battery separate from the Eee when on AC. For prolonged batt storage, keep it at around 30-40% charge.

By the way, Asus already taking orders for spare batteries in Taiwan but only the standard 4 cell. Price is an INCREDIBLY OUTRAGEOUS RM300+ (roughly converted from NT to RM)
