Macbook Fan Quick Fix

May 26, 2008

2 weeks after getting my MacBook back from Apple due to the fan problem, my fan suddenly died again.

 

000 rpm on SMCfancontrol, 0 rpn on Fan Control (System Pref). Exhaust problem on Hardware Test. Tired of repeating my problem to Apple Singapore, I searched the web for the location of the fan. After 5 mins on my 84C mac, i located the problematic part. 

 

and i wacked that area

 

yup, i gave the top mid section of my mac a hard knock. smcFanControl suddenly read 500rpm and quickly went up to 4000rpm.

 

Violence does not solve everything, but it sure does solve my mac fan!

 

EDIT:YouTube tutorial now online: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tCDB_NWwe4I

EDIT2: Comment if it works or does not work for u pls.

So in the end… i went to school

May 18, 2008

Kelvin thx for tong panging me from clementi.

 

Shot afew shots at FMS lvl9 benches… Had fun with kelvin’s pikachu

 

Later while following mud to the toilet (FMS lvl9… duh), I noticed the mirrors and wanted to take a shot.

I stood infront of mud’s cubicle and just as i was about to take the shot… he came out and ‘WTF-ed’

Last thing u’ll expect to see once you open the cubicle…

May 17, 2008

so like… im stressed? Today was really unproductive. I spend 30 mins in the cage trying to get my Kolbold lights, only to be told that theres a set missing.

 

Like WTF? I chionged booking one week ago when there was confirm 6 sets? Wheres my frikkin lightning?

 

Turns out that CTV (some ulu CCA of sorts that no one knows about) checked out the set WITHOUT GOING THRU THE SYSTEM. Even if this low lifed inconsiderate uncivilized move is used… i wouldn’t mind IF IT WASN’T THE KOLBOLD!!! WTF man, this sem ALL the fsv classes are taking “Camera n Lightning” so that means EVERYONE will be using the Kolbold…. AND CTV TAKES OUT THE KOLDBOLD FOR GOD KNOWS WHAT FILMING. Seriously man… theres like the Red Head kit which the cage has loads of? WHY MUST YOU TAKE THE KOLBOLD WHICH WE 100% NEED FOR OUR TINY SUBJECTS?

 

Seriously the booking system must be revamped to ensure equal usage among students. Inconsiderate students are killing off the TSOs. Thankfully they are understanding to give me a different type of lightning kit. Its much better than the Kolbold but soooo inconvenient. Stand and Lights are separated, and packing the lights and cables into the box makes Tetris look like childs play. but still…. TSOs you rock! If not for this i’ll kiss my assignment 1 goodbye.

 

(And theres the fucking Mbox hogging issue. Cos of tat i haven even started recording. Inconsiderate ppl again, i won’t say who. Hope u feel guilty and change.)

 

zzz I also did SaiKang work for SGNewWave… like at the wrong timing. Had to rush photos… even until now oso haven shoot finish. Will have to go sch tmr to chiong.

 

Too pissed to do much shit, gonna sleep now.
