R4DS

An ongoing title I ran throughout youtube was, "Loading..problem."
Nothing hard to fix.
Of course I only have experienced the R4DS, or the R4-III Upgrade which is a copy of the R4DS, even though it's almost impossible to tell the difference.
Explanation, the microSD needs four files that you can download at the manufacturers website which makes the whole R4DS what it is.

First things first, figure out if your card is an "Original" R4DS card, or if it's a copy from the R4DS.

Original R4DS
If you are positive you own a legitimate R4DS, which only supports 2gb, then just go to their websites download page, or click here.

R4-III Upgrade
Now if you got the R4-III Upgrade that supports up to 32gb(untested), like I did, you probably figure out that their website that is even printed on the box itself is down every now and always. I did a little bit of research, and I do mean little, and found this other website that does the job. Here is the link.
Click here
Just download it in your language of course.

Instructions

You should unzip the folder and will have two folders, three files, and a word document. Create folder with whatever name you want for the NDS roms, and put them there. Simple. Same for music, make folder, drag-n-drop like it says in the box.
Videos I have no clue.

***Also a pointer, some .mp3 do not work, they make some high pitch sounds and the voice is lowered and slower as well, kind of hard to miss. Don't even try putting apple sound files for they will not work either.***

***Another thing, no, you cannot play gba roms with the R4DS, so don't ask. Maybe in the future who knows.***

R4-III Upgrade Revolution Revision

You might know an R4DS Card is a DS cartridge that has a slot for a MicroSD card, where you can put music, videos, and (only) Nintendo DS roms into, and it's cheaper.
Well just 6 days ago, 9th of January on a Sunday I believe, I ordered my very own R4DS card from an untrust-worthy website called http://www.royalds.net, now, I ordered the titled card that is mentioned in this blog with a 4gb micro SD card, just to find out a few videos later in Youtube that the ORIGINAL and LEGITIMATE R4DS cards only support 2gb, and that the R4-III was indeed fake, or a remake as I would call it. I froze and then angered myself into worries, since I know nothing of how to return an item purchased from a second-hand company that makes little or no effort to even make their website look legitimate, and/or work since the files I needed to run the whole chebang were unavailable, I was angry with a reason. Compare yourself.

R4-III Update..blah website

"Anti-fake"? Really? Well that is just sad I fell for it, HOWEVER, I got my R4DS in the mail today, they were right at the shipping that stated to be delivered between 5-8 business days. As with the original and the fake, you have to load four files that are the main overwrite to the whole DS scrips and stuff, the ones missing from the fake website as stated above. The thing is, those files from the ORIGINAL R4DS cannot be used on the fake R4-III, basically it won't load hell. I did a little bit of research and found a website where they have those files(named kernels or something), where you can download and put them in the MicroSD card, and it will work properly with the fake. Here is the link.

Point is, I like it, it works perfectly fine, games run smoothly, and I have had no problems whatsoever. Another thing is the support for 4gb, yea right now I have probably 35 games, about 50-70 songs, and I still have like 1.5gb free, so I am happy. Was it worth it? yea. Will it have problems, well only time will tell, and I'll tell you, even if it's too late.
:P
Any questions or comments just ask. Aight.

Acer Aspire One AOA 150

Well, last Sunday I got my Aspire One 150 series notebook, with 120 GB of hard (nice|freaking|cool) drive and an amazing 1 gig of RAM. Now that might be "alright," but lets keep in mind that this is a computer as small as most portable DVD players (and it certainly confuses people as that). I can say this, I had continuously running Windows Explorer, Adobe Fireworks, iTunes, and some other program, yet the computer ran smoothly, for those who know, that is a lot of RAM in used.
Another great thing about this big computer, is its use of 3 USB ports, 2 SD slots, integrated cam (it is better to install a software to use it with than that provided), and a sensitive mic.

However great this computer is, depends on the use. If you are going to use it to edit and edit pictures...well headaches are inevitable due to the small screen, but for blogging, myspace, music, definitely MOVIES, and such, this computer is great.


******************
There is one problem with the fan, after a few days it starts with this really annoying noise, but there is software to slow the fan.
Here's the link for the Acer Aspire One/AA1 FanControl freeware, really great, just remember to turn it off from time to time since it is the fan that keeps the computeri cool, as a precautionary measure.

Who has Antispyware 2009 XP?

If you raised your hand, don't even raise that brow, this is serious crap that kept me off my personal computer for about two weeks. All good crap starts with a happy story, I was looking through some albums to download, and bam! Ac/dc new album (Black Ice) magically turned into Antispyware. How convinient I thought. Specially because my screen refreshed itself, some pop ups with interesting adult websites came up, it was just swell. Not to mention the re-directing of websites and blocking task manager. Slower. Pure crap.

I looked around for some free malware software and I found Spybot S&D. I can't really recommend it, because you have to have tried something to be able to critic it. In my case, the Antispyware 2009 XP (remember, the bad guy in this story) kept blocking the internet even if I plugged the computer directly, so the Spybot could not proceed. Either way I don't think it works well, just off the side prejudism.

I was about ready to give up and do some reseting which would kill any information in my computer, from unbacked up pictures and thousands of melancolic songs, to just amazing times recorded in videos, when I came across this software that said it would remove the unwanted Antispyware 2009 XP(again, the bad guy). I tried it in desesperation, and let me tell you something. First, don't do a Full Scan, it will take hours. Do it if you will leave it on overnight. Second, I did the quick scan, and it took nearly an hour or so when it found the crappy crapness that bugged my poor computer and killed it. I still need to do the full scan but it's great to type this blog with my healthy computer.
The program is downloadable here just click the "Download Now" button, install with defaults, and in your desktop you should have a red box with the letter M icon named "MalwareBytes Anti-Malware", double click it. Click the perform quick scan. And "Scan".

Tell me what you think. Thank you.
