D.I.Y

Last week, admin cut my internet coz they found the worm blaster in my PC. That problem was solved. But since then, my PC started having problem processing at the usual normal speed. It took forever to open an application. And as I have no choice available, I reformated my PC yesterday.

All my life, I have never reformated a PC. Yeah, weird but true. Every time my PC broke down back then, I used to send it straight to computer store to fix it. It usually costs around RM50-100 each time but it was repaired so, at least that part was done. I didn't even bother to ask what went wrong anyway.

Can you believe that came out from a software engineer student? Damn!

I was desperate to get everything done in a day. I could have sent it for repair but services here is a little bit pricey. And it might takes more 2-3 days at least to get it fix. The waiting alone might be depressing!

Desperate time called for desperate measure. So walaa, I fixed it. And I'm proud to say, I made it!

It was as simple as it could be but it took longer that I expected. I think everyone could have done it, even dummies. The thing is, you will never know how easy it would be until you try it yourself. I did learn something new today. And I hope it won't break down again anytime soon.

Btw, thanks a lot to a friend for helping me out! Gladly appreciated!
