Help! My Monitor Just Turned Black

Did your computer monitor just suddenly turn black? Listen to my story of how we found the solution.

So there I was, getting ready to make a video using the Logitech webcam, when the screen turned BLUE for about half a second.

I was able to catch the word "failure" before the 19" Samsung SyncMaster SA 300 LED flat panel monitor suddenly went black. And the blue "ON" light on the lower righthand part of the monitor just kept blinking.

I switched off the desktop computer then switched it back on. But still there was nothing on the screen, and the blue light just kept on blinking.

After switching the CPU off then on around 5 times, I brought the CPU to the computer shop.

It turns out that the RAM Memory boards had dirty contacts.

The computer hardware technician pulled the two 2GB memory boards from the motherboard, clean the gold contacts, re-inserted the memory back into the motherboard and... I was able to see the Windows 7 logon screen again. How about you? How did you solve your "Help! My monitor doesn't work!" problem?

Florante at Laura Summaries in Taglish

If you're looking for easy to understand summaries (or buod) of Florante at Laura, they're available in Taglish audio format.

Taglish is a combination of Filipino and English (or Tagalog + English).

What we did was to record a quick audio explanation of Florante at Laura. Each audio clip has 2 stanzas, and the MP3 files are downloadable from this Facebook Fan Page:

http://fb.com/FloranteAtLauraBuod

Each audio clip runs for around 3 minutes, which means each stanza goes for 1.5 minutes. That's a pretty fast way to understand F&L even more.

The audio mp3 files were recorded using a USB headset mic and open-source software (Audacity). These were exported as 128kbps MP3 files.

Do you remember how it was in high school, when you had to survive Filipino by understanding F&L? How much time did you spend going through the dictionary?

Hopefully, with this growing collection Florante at Laura Buod audio clips, we will be able to help more Filipinos gain a better understanding and appreciation of the awit written by Francisco Balagtas.

May you enjoy Philippine literature more! :-)
