Finally, My new PC is Working

After almost a Week of self-troubleshooting and surfing the net for solutions, I've finally given up and decided to look for my Friend JC . Well I must say, Since he fixed my Old AMD unit, I haven't got any problems with it and I am fully confident that he can Fix my new one. He is a solid Computer Technician and very keen in details when it comes to PC Assembly... always following his very own "SOP". He came around afternoon with his usual back-pack full of gadgets and tools. This guy almost has everything you'll need in Hardware Troubleshooting: from screws, RJ45s, spare parts, connectors, IDEs etc.. He even has this "spray-on" thingy that he uses when cleaning dusts out of power supplies, Motherboards and it can even melt thermal paste on a processor. I am telling you, this guy is a walking "PC REPAIR SHOP".

After an hour or so, He found 3 major problems in my Computer. First is that the motherboard is loosed, Second, the Processor is lacking some thermal paste, and third is that my POWERSUPPLY is defective.

So I immediately went back to my supplier and asked for a replacement. Thank God there's a warranty!
I went back home, and let JC installed everything and even cleaned up a few mess in my Old AMD unit.

Right now I am enjoying my Dual Core PC, and put my OLD AMD unit at the house. My next mission now is to install a HOME NETWORK.

If you want a good PC technician, I am confident to refer my Friend JC.
Contact me now! hehehehe

Innovate's First Official Client

This afternoon a guy asked me if I can lay-out a tarpaulin and a poster for a beauty pageant in a school here at Subic. I was also asked if I want to be a sponsor for all of the school events. I said yes in an instant. So I will be designing all the PRINT MATERIALS for every event they will have. I figured it will give EXPOSURE to Innovate cause every time I make a design. our Logo will be always there. I hope this will help us in starting a loyal "fan base" or should I say "client base" here in Olongapo. I am confident in my designs and I think Our Designs has more "professional" look than our competitors here. The only Problem I see for us is that we lack the Budget needed for printers and materials.

Here is my Design for the Beauty pageant:
POSTER 12x18 INCHES

TARPAULIN 6x3 Feet

Hopefully the designs will get approval.

My Freakin' new PC!!!

Ok here's the catch, I've been saving up some money these past few weeks so that I can build a new PC. After a few sacrifices, I have come up with enough money to buy the parts i needed, (with the help of my girlfriend, lol). I wanted to build an affordable INTEL DUAL CORE based unit. at around P15,000 pesos, Here are the parts that i have bought. (I didn't include a monitor)

Motherboard: Asus P5S-MX-SE-Php 2600.00
Memory: KINGSTON KVR 667 D2N5 1GB: Php 2150.00
Processor: INTEL CORE 2 DUO E2140 1.60GNZ SOCKET 77: Php 3400.00
Video Card: PALIT NVDIA GEFORCE 7200GS, 256MB 64BIT: Php 1800.00
Casing: ATX- SA- 268: Php 950.00
Hard Disk: SEAGATE 80 GB SATA: Php 2200.00
DVD Writer: SAMSUNG DVD-WRITER COMBO: Php 1600.00

GRAND TOTAL: 14,700 PESOS

"For now", I think the above specs is enough for my computing and graphic design needs.

So I called up my friend Robert, (a.k.a Doc Obet) to help me configure and assemble my PC,
Doc Obet was nice enough to do it for free. Weeee! It's nice to have a PC TECH as a friend.

After the PC was assembled, I was so excited to test run it and I installed all the softwares I need for GRAPHICS, VIDEO EDITING and GAMES. Then came a SHOCKING PROBLEM....

When I wanted to check the PC's performance with internet connection, I took it to our store so i could check. but the freakin PC won't start up!! I checked inside and the LED wasn't on. what the f%*ck! I checked all the parts and tried to troubleshoot it as best as I can but still won't start. To my dismay, i went back to my room and plugged the damn thing again, I checked the LED and i was surprised it's working again.

After 3 hours of figuring out what's the problem, I'm think that the problem is with my Power Supply or with my Motherboard. I'll wait for Doc Obet again to help me with this one. For now
here is my new Desktop in my new PC:
