Bricking Every Gadget

Wednesday, April 30th, 2008

The things I brick seems to get bigger by the day. People always says “tu la ko, ngegada” “ko ni pun… hackers sangat” “abes tu kene beli baru la?”.

  1. 2007 = Bricked my phone, at that time its brand new.(fixed by my own)
  2. 2007 = Bricked my mp3 player, unintentional, trust me.
  3. 2008 = Bricked my psp after 3 month getting it from the store. (fixed by my own)
  4. Last 2 days = Bricked my motherboard, (its RM1200 retail dude) amazingly fixed by my own o.O;

Bios update is scary, 1 wrong move and your mobo is gone. Im lucky to have unsoldered bios chip and a friend with very similar mobo(Im asus p5n32-E sli plus and his p5n32-e sli). Hot flash it and its done. Sadly, im stuck with his bios version instead. So whatever the “Plus” gives me, I wont get it. So back to the drawing board!!

p/s: Actually, my bios corrupted because I “hex” edit(hence the word hacking) the bios update before installing it, so its 100% my fault.

I love my mobo <3
