Rest in peace.. my DFI Lanparty NF4 UT Ultra-D :(

It was happened yesterday. I’m still on school and it was raining. Usually I left my computer running at home. I didn’t even think this tragedy would be happened to me. My computer was struck by lightning! >_< I didn’t know until I came home. As usual, I turned on the monitor and moving my mouse to show the login window. Nothing appeared on my screen. I tried to turn off my computer from power button, nothing happened too. So, I turned off my computer from the power supply switch.

At first I thought my computer was overheating, so I let my computer rest for a few minutes. After that, I try to turn on my computer. And.. my BIOS won’t load! Usually when booting up the computer, there must a beep sound and the BIOS screen with “Award” logo was shown on the monitor, but it didn’t happened.  I turned off my computer again and plug out the power from power outlet. 

I opened my computer case. Nothing strange inside the case. Diagnostic LEDs when my computer still on is normal and no burnout smell. I try everything I could do to the motherboard like using the safe boot jumper, clear CMOS, and unattach the BIOS battery, but.. nothing happened. My motherboard, specifically the BIOS is dead!

And, how I typed this blog entry? I’m on Internet cafe right now. Working my school assignments and typing this entry at the same time. The assignments must be given to teacher at tomorrow. Next Saturday or Sunday I’ll try to have replacement for my motherboard. Of course I couldn’t say my motherboard is broken because of lightning. Must lied a little to the dealer. ^^

Well then, I must continue on my school assignments. Bye!

Symphony -Hoshitachi no Uta-

1. KOTOKO – [KOTOKO LIVE 2006 IN YOKOHAMA ARENA Handed-out CD - Symphony -Hoshitachi no Uta- #01] Symphony -Hoshitachi no Uta- 5:55

MP3 VBR 196 kbps ;  8,7 MB

Quoted from Tokyo Toshokan:

“KOTOKO’s new song.​ This song will NOT be included in her upcoming 12/13 album.​ Visit us at #LosslessONE@irc.​rizon.​net”

Thanks to the [LonE] guys for ripping the CD. The original file was in FLAC, so I converted it to MP3 for sharing purpose. ^^

It’ s only has one song in the CD. And.. about the song, nothing special I think. ^^ Maybe if you are a KOTOKO’s fans or collectors, you must have this since it will not be included in her upcoming album (just like the [LonE] guys told at Tokyo Toshokan).

Various MP3s – November

Here’s some MP3s I uploaded last November. I shared those MP3s on AnimeIndo forum. It’s great forum to talk anime and japanese things in Indonesian. If you ask me which one is the best.. I think it would be Chercher from KOTOKO and Odoru Akachan Ningen from NHK ni Youkoso OST. (because… <– My skill on giving comments in English is still limited. Sorry.. )

Happy downloading.

English blog..

Aw.. maybe it’s a bad idea to create an English blog (well.. it’s still partial conversion from Indonesia to English), but why I’m still doing this? I’m praticing for English end term assignment on my school. One of prerequisite to graduate is to make a English written paper. One thing that made me very concerned for this assignment is the paper will be judged by native English speakers. I must make a presentation (of course in English) and explain it in front of them. I can’t neither write nor speak fluently in English. I think by writing this English blog, my skill on English will be improved. Wish me luck. ^^ Anyway, any comments will be appreciated.

The NB fan on NF4-Ultra-D – XtremeSystems Forums

The NB fan on NF4-Ultra-D – XtremeSystems Forums

I just realized how noisy is NF4 chipset fan on LanParty NF4 Ultra D. How come I just realized it now? I can’t stand it anymore! >_< At first the chipset fan was not noisy, but lately it became very noisy, and a few hours ago my NF4 chipset temperature on Motherboard Monitor just passed it’s threshold!

60 C! I closed all programs and turned off my system, then opened my computer case. I cleaned up a bit the inside of my computer case with vacuum cleaner. Maybe the heat build up becoming faster because of the dust. After the cleaning is done, I close the computer case and start up my computer again. Well… still noisy like nothing happened even after I cleaned the inside. But 10 minutes later, it become less noisy, just like usual again! I checked the Motherboard Monitor, the Chipset Fan’s RPM was 3900++! I think those noise before was caused by chipset fan speed was slower than 3900++. Take a look at my screenshot above when the chipset reach 60 C, the chipset fan was around 2600 RPM.

How about the link I put up on the top of this entry? It quite related to my problem. I can’t change my chipset fan because it doesn’t had enough room, blocked by VGA card. Then, I see one of the post on that forum, he/she bent the cooler plate (from passive cooler he bought to replace the fan) so the cooler could be fitted and doesn’t blocked by VGA. Very creative I think, but I’m too scary to do such thing. ^^

Well then, I must get back to work. Still has one school assignment to do. ^^

Unlimited School Works

I am the bone of my assignments
Microsoft Word is my tool, and brain is my think tank
I have worked over a thousands goddamn homework
Some of them are completely done
And the others were done with many failure
Have withstood pain to stay overnight
Yet, these are the real life of a high school student
So as I do my assignments, “Unlimited School Works”.

This is what I feel when the 5th semester is only a few months away. Must do many end term assignments.. >_< Don’t have much time to fill this blog, so I’m sorry guys.

Anyway, enjoy the new header image for my blog. ^^ Kawaii deshou? 2+ hours in Paint.NET!

Justice to Believe

1. 水樹奈々 – [Justice to Believe/アオイイロ #01] Justice to Believe 5:02 (Mizuki Nana – Justice to Believe)
MP3 VBR 213 kbps ; 8 MB

Newest single from Fate-chan.. errr.. i mean Mizuki Nana. This song also become the opening song for a PS2 RPG game titled Wild Arms the Vth Vanguard. Too bad I didn’t have PS2.

How about the song? Similar to ETERNAL BLAZE (OP song from anime Mahou Shoujo Lyrical Nanoha A’s) IMHO. Really cool and very.. upbeat maybe? Ahahaha.. there is still limitation on my skill in English. ^^ Just heard it by yourself.

Otome wa Boku ni Koishiteru 4koma

It’s inspired by original Gaijin Yonkoma/4koma from 4chan. Enjoy.. ^^

Continuing the /b/tards tradition.

Arrgh! Tugas numpuk! >_

Kenyataan 2 minggu belakangan ini seperti judulnya, banyak tugas! Kurikulum KTSP bikin repot aja.. >_<

Ada apakah gerangan? Pertama.. untuk kelas 3 di sekolah gw ini harus bikin karya tulis untuk tugas akhir biar lulus. Masih wajar sih menurut gw, namun.. mari lihat dua pelajaran lainnya, sosiologi dan komputer. Ada tugas bikin website! >_< Untuk yg pelajaran komputer kelompok gw udah selesai, cuma yg sosiologi aja nih gw agak ga tega, desain layout akhirnya ga sesuai permintaan teman-teman. Duh, bingung deh gw.. skill gw terbatas tetapi kenapa gw yg disuruh jd webmaster nya? Ngerti komputer belum tentu bisa web design, skill gw terbatas di web design!

Belum selesai penderitaan, tambah lagi pelajaran mulok (muatan lokal) untuk kelas IPS yg muncul seminggu yg lalu. Muatan lokalnya pelajaran ekonomi dan.. tugas lagi! Ga ngumpulin = ga dapat nilai rapot. Tugasnya bikin kliping atau laporan ttg lembaga-lembaga ekonomi internasional yg ada di Jakarta. Senin depan harus udah jadi konsepnya untuk dikonsultasikan ke gurunya, dan harus dikumpulin sebelum UAS.

Lalu, apa saja yg gw lakukan seminggu ini? Maen Prism Ark sampai jam 2 pagi. Asik jg maen game ADV klo ngerti omongannya, walaupun pas-pasan translasi pake AGTH + Atlas. Akhirnya tamat juga jalan ceritanya Priecia. ^^ Jd inget tipe-tipe karakter seperti Shana (Shakugan no Shana) atau Louise (Zero no Tsukaima) klo ngeliat sifatnya Priecia. Mungkin review game ini atau ringkasan per chapter cerita akan menyusul klo ada waktu.

Kalau begini terus, apa bakal selesai ya tugas-tugas gw? Duh.. susah jg sih ngebagi waktu. Dorongan untuk main game selalu saja ada. Harus bagaimana ya gw?

This entry is still in Indonesian language. Sorry. ^^ Anyway, if you want to read it.. why not? I’m still working on converting this blog to English. ^^
