I give up!!!

phatrat: PLease guys what is a BTA and how do i obtain one thanks

BTA (basic travel allowance 1500 dollars.

You dont obtain it. you bring it along when going to

Singapore!!!

Ok We hear!!!

Pls ask OBJ, based on this topic, what did he do to combat this issue while

he was in power

Present situation of things in the gaming industry

If you are in playing the latest games in high or the

highest settings possible, you have to spend money.

it not cheap. The Intel graphics that everyone on this thread

is screaming about will not cut it. Sorry to bust your bubble.

Now unto the real info.


You need at least a Dual core processor at 2.7/8ghz to play games.

I do recommend Quad core though.

In the RAM department, 8GB will be the sweet spot.

In the graphics area, you need at least an AMD or Nvidia Video card with dedicated graphics.

to be specific, place your money on the HD 7000 range upward for AMD and 570M for Nvidia.

for your hard drive, go with a 72000rpm drive or if you have enough money, go the SSD route.

This is it!!!!

......

brb!!!

2buff: It depends..
but in most situations, cordially Give her space with no bad feelings(dont ever be that child who throws tantrums because she doesnt love him back or some ish), live a fabulous happy life without her and let her own mind work for you instead of you wasting time doing any foolish hard work like someone mentioned here that may further reduce your novelty in her eyes (just like the stock market makes your money work for you and not you working for your money ). Simple, but not so easy if you really liked the girl. But you have to discipline yourself and stay off her matter, no hard feelings ofcourse.

A lot of times after doing this and they see you have truly fashied them, they will call you one day to "just check up on you" or the typical nigerian-chick "so you've forgotten me ehN?" type call in an obvious attempt to create an avenue to rediscuss the topic after their head, heart and emotions have dealt with them severly. Ofcourse by then, being an awesome guy, you would probably already be looking at at least 2 pther promising individuals and might not have her time anymore. Such is life.

Absence makes the heart grow fond as you all well know. Un-abased Novelty. This is the fundamental of the game. I hate to sound like a game-pusher when starting relationships are involved but the anti-politically-correct version of the truth is that ALL women require the game. No matter how "different" you think they are.

GBAM!!!!

Makes a hell lot of sense!!!

[quote author=*Ileke-IdI]Be persistent by showing her that you really like, but know your limit and know when to give up. Don't become a stalker.

If a girl says No, there are 2 reasons why:

1. She really don't like you

2. She does not believe that you're worth it.[/quote]Yikes, that cruel!!!! What if the girl says she has a bf??

2buff: No for what exactly?
To borrowing money? Or?

Your imagination is wild

NO as in erm being in a relationship kind of proposal that gets the response of

a NO!!!

Alright guys!!!

Heres the deal....

How would you react if a girl you like says NO to you?


Waiting for your replies!!!

samir101ng: " Windows 8 Installation Has Failed "

And with that statement, i finally met my first challenge installing Windows 8 on a system. Am trying to install Windows 8 Pro 64-Bit on an Asus VX6 Netbook with a Nvidia ION graphics card with Optimus. It has 6GB RAM & a 250GB HDD. Am using a bootable USB and DVD-ROM media to install but with no luck. Went to the Windows 8 forums and came across plenty people experiencing the same issues. It seems upgrading on some systems has a lot of issues from BIOS, Antivirus or security software, incompatible programs etc. Bottom line, am stuck and still researching on how to overcome this challenge. But the surprising thing is i installed the same media on a Sager NP3250 wtih+ a 1GB Nvidia GT520M graphics card with Optimus and no issues. It seems the upgrade installer is a little finicky on some systems. @Moonraker-chan, have you encountered any such issues before coz people are screaming bloody murder in the Microsoft forums.

Oops, Sorry for my late respond Brother Samir...

Been in research mode for a while..

About the installation issue, you cant install that on a netbook.

Except you by some miracle get your hands on Windows 8 RT. Now even if

you did by some miracle again get your hands on the RT version, You will have

to contend with the resolution issue. For apps to work properly on windows 8

you need a minimum of at least 1386x800 i think. I am not aware of any netbook with

such a resolution.This is the issue with netbooks now. Planning on disposing my netbook

becos well when you use the windows 8 interface, there is no going back

[quote author=Ileke-IdI]What is bloatware?



Sure will. I'll be right back. [/quote][quote author=Ileke-IdI]You guys, plz ignore Royal Pain lol

@moon/lord

What do you guys mean by the bloating of the phone?

Trust me, this phone is large. And yes, I can operate one-handed now that I manually set the option to one-handed operation. The motion sensor senses which hand is being used, then shifts the keyboard to the designated side, making typing with one hand much more easier.[/quote]In simple english Garbage

Behold its glory!!!

Jelly bean goodness the way it should be..

I can see that T mobile did a bleeped up job of bloating

the living hell outta this device.

The screen is massive too.

how i wish samsung can put the retina display on that bad boy.

i will totally dump my back up phone (Iphone 4S) in a flash!!!

[quote author=*Ileke-IdI]Moonraker, I'm so absolved in my happy Samsung world that I failed to see your response. My apology

I couldnt take pics today lol. I went str8 from the phone place to work. Trust me, by tomorrow, I'll fill this thread up.

Answering your previous question, I stuck with T-mobile because they offered the best service and because they're changing to an LTE network by mid of next year.

At&t was a bit pricy for a student like me ($120/month ke ) while T-mobile was offering me ($90/month with extended phone insurance included for the same service).

So far, I've got no complaint.


PS: Can you believe that this phone can PrtScn [/quote][quote author=*Ileke-IdI]Can you imagine, from August - Nov 8. I didnt know I had this much patience in me.

I'm very much impressed with myself [/quote]Hahahhahahaha your funny!!!!

I am not sure about PrtScn being a new feature but my GN1 can do same

by holding the home and power button i think!!!

I am happy and at the same time jealous of you!!!

I expect a full debrief by 2moro!!!

[quote author=*Ileke-IdI]Guess who has a samsung galaxy note 2 in her hands right now?

$742 and all worth it.

Unfortunately, I cant play with it until tomorrow because of work tonight. Will be back with pictures and review tomorrow. [/quote]Young lady. We are still waiting for the pics and reviews. You never ansswered my question, which did u switch carriers??

[quote author=*Ileke-IdI]Boys, it is time to rejoice.

I get my phone today after class.

Please rejoice with me

Chic2pimp, Lord_Reed and Moonraker, help me pop the champagne [/quote]Kool... I knew you were gonna get it before me. Knowing fully well how slow our

know first hand what to expect. did u switch carriers??

samir101ng: Konichiwa-Moonraker-kun !!!

Sorry about the long silence. Sallah break & all. Am pleased to inform you that i have become an official Windows 8 Evangelist . I have officially converted over 5 people to the new Windows 8 Pro & all are happy and adapting to the new OS. After downloading the Windows 8 Upgrade Advisor and creating a bootable USB flash drive, i have been actively encouraging friends & family to join the bandwagon. Most are usually upgrades so installation was a breeze. Only had to do a clean install like twice. Usually do my installation while connected to the internet via WLAN or LAN so as to get the latest updates. So far so good. Really impressed with the responsiveness and clean look.

On the Metro interface, am pleased to say that everybody i have installed it on has had no difficulty adjusting to the new GUI. Yes, the METRO interface will change how you used to do things but that's the constant thing only in life "Change". All those whining & complaining i believe need to just give it a little more time to adjust.

Have also applied and received my free Windows Media Centre license keys. Talking about keys, i bought my Windows 8 Pro license key for N6355.56 using my GTB Naira Mastercard. Its that easy. So, what are you guys waiting for ?! If you have an original copy of Win XP/Vista/7 you can apply and buy the new Windows 8 Pro license for roughly the same amount i paid. Good luck !!!

Fantastic!!!!

Good to here from you bro!!! Between you can download my app from the store free of charge ofcourse. its called twitpro..

Brain cracking

obadiah777: nothing to do with your country. the phd holder is the problem. he cant apply his knowledge to create business ? wtf ? africans sef. no critical thinking. na just to read and regurgitate and then look for job

Pls dont embarrass yourself on this public platform..

the creation of business your talking about here requires capital.

What if the capital involved isnt available?? Besides, having a masters

MBA or phd in nigeria doesnt mean shit 80% of the time if you do not have

a long leg!!!

ciphoenix: quite bold of you. The galaxy note has 4.1 already though

Wrong!!! There is no official update for jellybean. Except your

running custom 4.1...

Onw new feature i discovered today

Sync of settings and apps cross devices

using ur microsoft account. Means if you login into

computer using ur microsoft account, then your apps and settings

get transferred tooo. dont know about files yet but i guess thats

why you have sky drive, integrated into windowa 8. There is also an

app for Skype metro, screenies coming soon

samir101ng: Arigatou Monnraker-san !!!

What was your experience like when upgrading to Windows 8 ? Did you do a clean installation or an upgrade from a previous version of windows ?? Like i said earlier, i have 2 systems which i want to upgrade to Windows 8 (XP & Vista Professional), but i want to keep my user files. Am not too disturbed about the user setting and programs but i have plenty media files which i want to keep when i upgrade. Any thoughts ??

Heyy bro, did you get around installing windows 8??

For the sake of ranting!!!

You cant eat or drink in public (1,000 dollar fine Singapore)

you have to line up for a taxi. (Singapore)

you can play loud music (Police straight)

The rules are tailor made. No magomago, no frog jump.

Alright!!!! A little update on the whole Windows 8 Brah haha!!!


So well as you all on from this thread, i have been running windows 8 since

its inception, even though i havent posted all my photos and findings here.


Anyways, on October 26th 2012, Windows 8 was officially available for download

from my base (Japan to be specific) at exactly 12am). Now seeing how stable it

was on my laptop, i decided to upgrade two other laptops at home using my technet

subscription. Everything went smoothly. i installed windows 8 pro on two computers

in 25minutes. I was in cloud nine cos well this is like one the fastest OS installations

i have done in a while (Well except for ubuntu).

Anyways, nothing happened. One of my laptops, an HP Envy 17 to be specific installed a driver

from windows update which made the screen go black. This laptop comes with switchable graphics which

has always been a problem even in windows 7. HP doesnt have a new driver for it and AMD isnt bothered to

even try to support it. So you spend like 1500+ on a laptop and you are expected to provide support for yourself??

I was losing my mind. So i calmed down for a while and then went to system recovery, went into safe mode and disabled

the two graphics adapters. Boot back into windows and Install Leschat modd drivers (Catalyst 12.9 i think).

It worked fine but putting the computer to sleep and then waking it up brings up only a black screen. still better than

nothing i guess...

Games run fine. tried crysis 2 and fifa 13 and its all good. however, i did try installing NFS Undercover but no show.

Compatibility mode doesnt work either... oh well... Thats it for now. Will fill you guys in on more updates and bugs as

they come!!!

Windows 8 launched today!!!

How many of you are upgrading??

If you have any questions, Do not hesitate to ask!!!

Thank You

Apparently us celluar subscribers can get the device starting 2moro

[quote author=*Ileke-IdI]iPad 4 already came out? When? If so, will the iPad 3 price drop? iPad 4 ko iPad 24 ni. NA MY WALLET DEM WAN INJURE.

I am disappointed o, today is the 24th and Verizon still hasnt released this darn phone because of their contract with iPhone. I feel like crying [/quote]You got it all wrong dear.

I dont think its Verizon doing the launching.

Samsung does the launching and the then Verizon grabs the

product and starts advertising!!! No??

Good Question bro

I actually did two kinds of installation. Upgrade and clean.

now if you want to keep your files, settings etc, The upgrade path is your best bet. however, you can

only upgrade to windows 8 pro and you also have to start the installation from your present OS Installation.

Your files and settings will be stored in folder called windows.old

As much as i do recommend doing a clean install, Windows 8 does a pretty darn job on performance....

[quote author=*Ileke-IdI]Shey I tell you English was my first language? Ehrn, and how much will the updated version cost? Na which kain yahoo yahoo is this? I havent even gotten my hand on iPad3, them wan upgrade ama nd raise the price.

@Lord reed

What's the difference between LTE and HSPA+ in terms of performance? One phone company offers GN2 with LTE and another offers it with HSPA+, not sure which one is better. I heard that LTE is the new revolution and might not available in some coast and still being tested, while HSPA+ is ubiquitous and already well developed.[/quote]HSPA+ 14mbps

LTE 72mbps


I do have an LTE modem and the difference is clear. I open web pages faster

and well youtube is a dream on that speed while else on HSPA+ which is technically

3G is just well painfully to use. buttom line is once you use LTE, there is no going back!!!

[quote author=Ileke-IdI]My Pipus (Lord Reed and Moonraker)

Are you guys as anxious as I am?[/quote]Yes i am. As stated in the earlier thread, GN2 hits my base in November. That is

my christmas present to myself, along with an alienware m18x or macbook pro retina!!!

anyone notice the bug in fifa 13 PC_

Where all the players names are ruddy??

EA, Fix this shit

samir101ng: @Moonraker,

Konnichiwa !!!

Am sold on Windows 8 and will take advantage of the $40 upgrade for my home desktop (Win Vista). Am sure other owners of Win XP & Vista will take advantage of the upgrade offer also. However, recent owners of Win 7 might hold off on the upgrade until all the bugs are worked out. My primary laptop is one of them. Better safe than sorry.

hahahaha good one bro

btw you will not be disappointed!!!

i hv been using windows 8 since the early builds....

I am presently running the rtm build thanks to technet subscription..

The only issue i am having right now is switchable graphic drivers but that isnt MS fault...
