I love how if you take a computer, plug all the peices in and hook everything up it doesnt work. . .

so you take it all out again, and put it back together the exact same way, peice by peice and test boot it each time to see which peice of the hardware is causing the lock up, and then you finally put the last peice in and everything works like a charm. . .

gotta love it. . .

The Frys GQ (Great Quality) box my dad bought last year is now running my main web surfing and downloading computer. Semperon 2800+ now running at 1800mhz with 2GB of ram. Onboard video and every single PCI Port full, with SCSI Card, SATA Card and Wireless Network card. The Lack of a firewire port is irritating but there are 4 USB2.0 ports so I will survive for now.

Dre may have a Firewire card he will part with for cheap, I'll have to call him and see if he wants to get rid of it still.

Got the OS installed, and tonight I get to apply a metric fuck ton of microsoft updates, put AVG virus scan on it, and configure everything, I figure I have another 4-6 hours worth of software installation and configuration to do. I'll be so glad when this is done, hopefully it will be at least another 6-8 months before I have to do anything like this again.

In the process of trying to re-do my whole computer setup, while avoiding having to do a whole flatline and re-install.

Not having much luck as of yet. Getting odd Errors from my Quantum Atlas 10K2 SCSI Drive, so I decided to low level forat it wit the SCSI Bios. Note to self a 70GB Drive takes a LONG ASS TIME to low level format and there is no indicator of what point the process is at.

Maybe I'll go to bed and see if it's done by the morning. .

Although this program on the History Channel on Declassified: Radical Movements which covers everything from the KKK, to the Anarchists, to the Whether Underground. . . it's pretty interesting. . .
