After Northen Eastern states Tripura, Meghalaya, Nagaland got new goct in 2013, its time for major state Karnataka to go in Elections in May. Chances are BJP may not do good. But recent mood against Congress at National level may give BJP some chance.

Airtel Broadband likely to soon offer 512kbps post FUP on all plans

Posted: 08 Dec 2013 02:13 AM PST

It seems finally Airtel is coming back to it's senses,they have decided to increases post FUP speed to 512 Kbps across all plans which will come into effect from 29th November.Just few days ago I saw a thread here mentioning the increase in speed to 512 kbps in Jaipur,I got excited and called the Customer Care just to inquire the same(i also wanted a PLAN CHANGE)..I think there is still a need to Increase their quota GB's of data provided in their initial plans.I was on 2 Mbps 10 GB FUP RS 700+taxes(100 calls free),I shifted to 1299+taxes with 15 GB( 8 Mbps) data and 1000  local calls free.I am not a heavy downloaded,my bandwidth usage is somewhere between 20-25 GB per months with a decent usage of phone so that plan suits well to me.

 

I just hope they should increase their FUP speed to at least 1 Mbps,specially in their high end plans!!

Has anyone used mdcomputers.in?

Posted: 08 Dec 2013 02:03 AM PST

Hello everyone.

I usually shop from flipkart if I have to buy anything online.

However since I joined Tom's Hardware, I found a couple of times a mention of the site mdcomputers.in. I went to their site and found out they sell for a little cheap than flipkart and also ship to my area.

 

So has anyone used it?

I want to get a graphics card for myself and I'm saving 1200 on it.

But I don't want to risk that money on a bad site/product.

Thanks.

Condition of MTNL box in your society

Posted: 08 Dec 2013 02:02 AM PST

Guys so frustrated with MTNL that I am starting a thread for MTNL box location in your society. I have uploaded this pic just now after several phone call to MTNL broadband guy, AM, SDO, GM & what not however no action is taken and broaband kepps coming anfd going off. This is the worst condition and water is dripping from top from a air conditioning duck.

I am also going to sent an email with this pic to the mtnl so called babus so that they can see what the hell is going on in my society.

 

Airtel speed sucks and they have fup but atleast in my society they have a decent box installed with proper wiring.Here you can see the MTNL wiring and the box does not even has a close lid.

 

If you guys have the same or the worse scenario do share you experience with the pic.

HP Ink Advantage Multifunction

Posted: 08 Dec 2013 02:00 AM PST

I am planning to buy an ink advantage MFP. The cartridge used is HP 678 tri black+tri colour. Is any body using these ink advantage printers. Cartridge now used is Hp 678, earlier models were coming with Hp 685 cartridges. 

I want to know if these cartridges can be refilled for long. I have heard people refilling them but they are not lasting more than 2-3 refills.

One seller also told me the same.

Can anyone tell from their experience if it is really so, and how many times have you refilled?

Thanks

BSOD on New Laptop Ram Install.

Posted: 08 Dec 2013 12:45 AM PST

I had bought this in Jan 2013, running Win7, 32 bit, for my Lenovo Z560. Its suppose to be supporting 8GB

 

Corsair DDR3 4 GB Laptop RAM - 

  • DDR3-1333/PC3-10600

 

The laptop had existing ram  of 2GB , clock speed: 1066 (Original Ram)

 

Now Without using the original Micron ram of 1066 with the New Corsair one the computer was never booted :\

I just wanted to use the corsair one !

 

Using both Rams booted though there was always a screen showing all the time hardware changes...and all..

 

 

( have flashed BIOS, updated chipset driver...but nothing ) 

 

 

Now I upgraded to 64bit win7 Pro. so i could use full 6GB as with 32 bit it was limited to only 3GB !

 

Now the new ram (Corsair DDR3 4 GB, 1333  ) is not at all working with old one Micron1066.

 

 if I put both together I am getting BSOD. If its not BSOD its going in a loop of continuous restart or black screen.

 

Errors:

 

0x00000019 BAD_POOL_HEADER

 

Irql_not_less_or_equal

 

 

 

 

Its only booting with the Micron one.

 

There is no option in BIOS to change CPU speed ...Ram Clock speeds.... thanks to crappy Intel Mother Boards. BIOS is clearly showing 6 gigs of ram.

 

Now what do i do I am stuck with 2GB ram ! 

 

Have already run so many restarts ...  :\

Flipkart and Snapdeal are no longer authorized partners/dealers in India for Nikon Products

Posted: 07 Dec 2013 11:09 PM PST

Flipkart is no longer an authorized partner/dealer in India for Nikon Products. So, after 19/07/2013, I don't think it would be a good idea to buy Nikon products from Flipkart since Nikon might refuse warranty or free service to the product. Not sure about products bought before 19/07/2013 though. Another setback for Flipkart it seems.

The order came on the complaint of Delhi resident Vikas Khattar who had alleged that the Wagon R car he had bought in 2007 for Rs four lakh had to be taken for repairs 27 times in its first two years.

The repairs included replacement of various parts of the vehicle, he had said adding that Maruti had not carried out proper quality check of the vehicle prior to delivery.

In its reply, Maruti had said the vehicle was attended to and the parts were replaced free of cost during the warranty period adding that there are proper quality checks before delivery of a car.

CCTV security surveillance in less than Rs600

Posted: 07 Dec 2013 10:55 AM PST

Hi all,
I have installed compact CCTV cameras at strategic points across the house on my own. The cameras are from JMK brand with cost less than Rs600. Some extra wiring cost may come depending on the lengths used. But private security companies charge more than Rs7000 for installation...So see the difference.

 

Website of JMK, a Hong Kong based security and CCTV camera company (Remove spaces in the URL): h t t p://w w w.jmk.hk/


These cameras have direct AV (Audio-Video) Out which can be given to our existing CRT or LCD television screens or DVR, Computer, Laptop with TV Tuners, or Video Input etc. There is a choice of PAL or NTSC video output too.

The power consumption is 0.2W and the required power source is 9 Volts, 500mA. But I am using rechargeable Lithium-ion batteries charged by Solar panels, so do not have to worry even if power fails, I still have CCTV system working.

 

Video Output Resolution of PAL: 628 X 582 and NTSC: 510 X 492

India gets its first bank exclusively for women

Posted: 07 Dec 2013 09:30 AM PST

Such a freaking wastage of money in the name of women empowerment. 

 

 

 

India launched its first public sector bank catering for women on Tuesday, an initiative aimed at economically empowering millions of women across the country who do not have access to basic financial services such as bank accounts or loans.

Inaugurating the first branch of the Bharatiya Mahila Bank in the financial city of Mumbai, Prime Minister Manmohan Singh told dignitaries that despite great successes made by some women in India, many continued to face financial exclusion.

BSNL combo 650

Posted: 07 Dec 2013 09:26 AM PST

Just changed my plan from 500 c to 650 combo. Getting speeds around 800 Kbps. Do I need to wait for line stats to change from 2048 Kbps to 512 Kbps or the current rate will do fine? It's reflected in selfcare portal as 650 combo. Speed hits 1.2 Mbps and comes back to 500 to 800 Kbps. Earlier it was 1.8 Mbps through out.

I have no idea what's happening now, since I m not coming often here.
