Memory Card I/O Device Error

If an I/O Device Error appears on your computer screen upon left-clicking your Memory Card and you have troubles opening your files, you may need to format your MMC or SD Card. If you cannot format it on your computer, try formatting it on your phone or camera. But of course, the data in your memory card will be lost, so, be quick and clever enough to perform backup tasks before doing so.

However, there is a Memory Card Data Recovery Software that you can find on the internet and download it into your computer. I have tried it when I had problems opening my MMC files and it worked. The lost data were all retrieved. That’s one good news!

Then, if the memory card works good on your phone or camera, try to connect it again to your computer. If it yields the same result, an I/O Device Error still appears on the screen and you cannot left-click the memory card, then, there may be some problems with your Card Reader. The card reader may have corrupted the files in your SD or memory card.

Even if you buy a new SD or MMC and try it on with your card reader, you may just be risking the new SD or Memory Card and waste your money. The card reader may already be damaged, and if it already is, it will damage every card you put in it. Instead, buying a new Card Reader gets the problem solved. Period.

Using Priestess of the Moon effectively

Others call it “potm” in abbreviation of priestess of the moon. Priestess of the moon is a support-ganker type heroine. Her Elune’s Arrow combined with Leap and Starfall makes this heroine very dangerous in the hands of a professional Dota player.

Here are some tips on how to make her arrows deadly. Click the image to see full-size.

1. When targeting an enemy, make sure to hide on the woods. An arrow that passes through trees cannot be easily evaded.

2. In harassing an enemy, make sure your arrow will pass through a one-way path.

3. On the lane, while still waiting for the enemy’s creeps to attack, make sure to release the arrow. The enemy assumes that you are on your lane and waiting for another creep wave. It is advantageous to release arrows on blind spots.

4. Using Potm, player should think in advance, like what if your hero is about to die and what are the possible paths that he’ll take? Think.

5. You shouldn’t think twice when releasing elune’s arrow. This will distract your concentration. The chance for the enemy being hit may decrease to 1%. lol

Positioning of Casualty in Emergency Cases

November 1st, 2008 janzynn may Posted in Business & Finance, Career & Education, Computers & Internet, Entertainment, Health, Living & Lifestyle, Science & Technology 1 Comment »

It is very important to know some first aid tips so that in times of emergency we already know what to do initially, especially if there are no rescuers and rescue equipment readily available. In all emergency situations, always remember to prioritize the ABC - (1) Airway, (2) Breathing and (3) Circulation. Here are some tips in positioning a casualty and their rationales.

In aspiration, the casualty should be placed in prone position with the head turned to the side in order to maintain a patent airway and to avoid further airway obstruction.

If a casualty is having dyspnea or difficulty in breathing, place him or her in Fowler’s position to allow lung expansion. The head should be in 45 to 90 degrees angle.

If a casualty is in shock, place him or her in Trendelenburg position. The body is laid flat on the back (supine position) with the feet higher than the head. This is to increase the blood pressure so as to counteract shock. In this condition, insufficient blood flow reaches the body tissues that may lead to hypoxemia (a lack of oxygen in arterial blood) or cardiac arrest (the heart stopping). If there is no immediate action, it can cause death.

From PangYa To The Real World of Golfers

October 26th, 2008 janzynn may Posted in Business & Finance, Career & Education, Computer, Computers & Internet, Entertainment, Health, Living & Lifestyle No Comments »

Looking back to my college years, playing online computer games was my favorite pastime. PangYa, an online golf game, was one of the best games I had played. Playing PangYa was really cool and full of fun!

I thought golf in the actual setting is boring and is as simple as ABC. When I first tried holding a golf club and positioning myself to hit the ball like a professional golfer, I was scared like I wouldn’t want to play at all. The very thing that made it tough for me is the weight of the club. Because the club was a bit heavy, I was afraid that I might also throw it away as I hit the ball. Good thing because a friend was there to coach me. My first few strikes were bad and bunker but I recovered some of them though. And it’s sad to say that after my first golf tryout, I had blisters in my hands and muscle pains in my limbs. Bitter but I really had a great time on my very first actual hands-on at the TSR Golf Driving Range. Thanks to a dear friend, Kuya Jun, for warmly lending me his golf set and for giving me few tips on how to play golf the proper way. Now, I am looking forward to try another few rounds and I am positive that I will learn golf in no time. This is something new for me and I also want to test the waters.

To the golf newbies like me, good luck and strive hard! Let us welcome ourselves to the world of golf! Cheers!
