uboma: Wow! I just learnt from u that the size of the hard drive can be upgraded. The ram size is 2gb.

yes oo broda. since it came with 2gb den am sure it shud be able 2 support 4gb gud luk bro

For those of you clamoring 2 know if your sim supports 4gb plan Just dial *440*161#

IF u receive a message of Insufficient balance, dat mins u are eligible for the offer Proceed with loading #1500 to your account and follow the below procedure to get 4gb,after dat just add d 10mb plan code which is 100 naira----*141*11*1#

But if you dial the code and you receive a message that you are not eligible for this offer, dat mins u are not qualified for d 4gb plan

for any of d above plan u choose.. subscribe 4 a 1day 10mb plan n u are gud 2 go..-*141*11*1#

uboma: I'm not even searching for a used one in the first place. The size of the hard drive that came with the Hp mini is 320gb. I thought its impossible to upgrade the size of the hard drive except the ram which can upgraded (I may be wrong, not an IT expert). I need an exact and reliable quote of the 320gb hard drive. Thank u

the hard drive can be upgraded my bro... jst fill ur pockets n daz all. what size of upgrade are we looking @ here..apart 4rm d hard drive spec. was d ram size...

pipyokoro: please i cant download anything on my laptop. each time i want i want to download or open some files the whole system hangs and secondly my anti virus just expired please i need free antivirus and how to dwonload. somebody, anybody please help. its urgent

how did it all start and wat was the first symptom u noticed....

was d spec of d pc and how long does it take 2 come up... just use ur stopwatch... and give other symptoms apart from the ones u just mentioned

falansa: Thanks for the honest reply, i bought it brand new four months ago and i have not formated it before. Reasons why i intend to format is include
1) the disk space is almost full without know what docs occupy the spaces
2) It is getting slower, and at times take up to a min before vlc player can load, and also took longer than normal when switching it off.
3) window defender have been notifying since a week ago that there malware on the system and when i scanned it wit antivirus, it found none
And lastly i think d dvd rom driver is faulty coz the dvd rom will eject itself without playing anytime i inserted any disk to it.
I just want to recover it back to the first time i bought it with a view that the problems mentioned above will be solved.
Your help will be highly appreciated, thanks sir

Am still waiting for respond pls

bros wetin be d spec of the system...

uboma: Does anyone have a hard drive 320gb for a Hp mini laptop? How. much and what brand do you have?

bros save urself the troubles... getting a tokubo hard disk is not ideal.. except u are willing 2 test the health status of dat hard disk be4 paying 4 it.. either by using some hard disk tools or the inbuilt disk test tool on ur hp system... abeg buy new one.. get an external hard drive of 500gb cost abt 10500 and pull the hard disk out 4rm d case n use on ur lappy.. or u could get a 320gb hard drive 4 abt 9k or 9.5k...

bros i nor know nor de oo.

falansa: I want to format my hp655 window 8 laptop i dont have recovery cd but there is a partition disk drive on my computer wit recovery title. Pls can i reformat without recovery cd? If yes i need step by step guide on how to do so. Thank you in advance

did u buy it as a brand new pc if yes have u ever formated it b4 now...?

steveyen: Da don BrightK. Are u using any VPN tin on GLO? Pls let us know .

no bros i am using airtel.. its jst a normal subscription.. but i am trying sometin on glo ... wud let u guys know d outcome..

desperado4xxx: please I dnt think u should be comparing Indian prices with Nigerian prices for data. Maintaining sites(gsm equipments) that offer those services is very expensive in Nigeria due to challenges like power and economy.

bros nor de talk like dat.... gsm sites ke...dose piple know wat de are doin.. abi u be dia staff

Okaka27: but i thought that plan is only done once in a sim life time

nope.. just follow d instructions n u are gud 2 go... maybe u can try this other code. dat na if ur sim de eligible.. *440*161#...if u dial d above code without airtime on ur fone and it tells u dat u dont have balance.. den u are eligible.. but if it tells u dat it u are not eligible den u can use the code.. that code actually gives 4gb...

when will airtel nigeria give us good value for our money.. when shall she start enjoying true broadband here in nigeria..its really sad that these companies rip us off our money yet we cant enjoy good services.. i was looking @ broadband prices in india (http://www.airtel.in/broadband-and-fixed-line/broadband/tarrifs).. it shows how corruption has ruined us..i converted the currency to naira and saw the huge difference.. we are not asking for unlimited plans... give us a good value for our money.. imagine 80gb @ 2mbps for 4325.29 naira per month.... while we get 15gb for 22,000 naira here..i use airtel for my internet services.. i must say kudos 2 u for ur uptime.. but it still doesnt justify the depth of extortion that is been done ....AIRTE DO SOMETHING... give us a good value for our money and you will see the difference in your profit.. havent you guys noticed the rate @ which people subscribe to black berry plans here in nigeria.. its not because everyone use a bb device.. many of us find it cheaper cos we can use it on non bb devices.... please help us.. some of us are heavy users and we cant keep up with the low data bundles anymore...

[quote author=E-Light]msking 250mb in total?[/quote]yep.. might even increase due to bonus mb from voucher recharge

moscovite: Linux? Windows 7 is even barely accepted within cafes. How will you deal with customers who bring their software to run so they can do their forex etc. Most softwares around are written for windows xp that is why you still have XP running in most cafes. If you want to start losing customers the day you open install a Linux.

Graphics: Are you aware that thin clients only bring what has been processed to your screen and has no interaction whatsoever with host VGA. Have you ever configured your thin client on 256 and get a high quality image with that big VGA you talked about. It wouldnt happen. The thin clients bring everything straight to its display raw and resolves the graphics using its own VGA. Sluggishness has to do with your network speed mostly. Its the same with Videos. You can see videos come in frames because RDP brings in the video raw and uncompressed, whereas what you get from the net like youtube come in compressed. RDP brings it in raw and you need a large bandwidth to have video frames come in faster. By some calculation you need about 150-200Mbps. Your LAN and switch is typically 100Mbps. So, that is where the slugishness comes from.
Try and get a gigabit switch, gigabit Lan card for server and maybe a Gigabit thin client and see how the video will run.
This has not been an issue for cafes anyway because cafe owners dont want you to continously stream video on his network especially when most ISP cap their bandwidth. You can finish his entire monthly allocation in one day with such video.
So slugisshness is an internal bandwidth issue because of how the RDP protocol operates.

We all learn from each other...i would look into that..

awesome speed no tweaking
