Project Pentium

Remember my old laptop which had served me well for 4 years? Well, Khalis and I tot that it had rested long enough and its about time we took it out from the closet.
Khalis decided to change the processor so we bought a new processor last night - COD at Jalan Pasar (the dodgy side of KL I never knew!! - Khalis said its not fair to say that its dodgy coz I was only there at night, during the day its quite 'meriah')..Its an old laptop thus finding a compatible processor was a slight headache.

Its quite an achievement even for Khalis. He had worked on hundreds of PCs but its the first time ever he installed a processor to a laptop. Khalis doubted that he would have the patience to deal with all the small parts and the process would be very tedious that we initially wanted to pay someone else to do the installation for us.

He started at 630pm and finished at 830pm

New processor mounted on motherboard

Good thing about this new processor is that its intelligent enough to 'speedstep'

Idle mode~~
Working hard~~
We changed the RAM a year ago, today plak processor so next Khalis cakap tuka hard disk plak.. Tuka hard disk is easy peasy..but part nk kuar kn duit susah sket =P
