Well. ^^ I'm glad to see you're making an announced disappearance this time at least~XD

*Snuuuugs*

I hope whatever it was that caused the aggravation gets better sooner then later. ^^ And that ME2 is good, of course~

It is good, I beat it. But now... well... my computer is acting up. Badly. I have the problem just nearly fixed... before getting stonewalled by idiotic Microsoft BS. Trying to repair my OS installation should NOT take a 25 letter CD key that was lost ages ago.

Hopefully a workaround will be found within the next day or so... but until then I am stuck using my dads computer when he isnt on it... which is rare.

Right... so bad news, worse news, and kinda good news. The bad news is my friend cant fix my computer. The worse news is that my hard drive has gone bad. The kinda good news is I have a flash drive around somewhere which still has all my files I copied onto it when I switched hard drives to this last one. Granted, that WAS months ago... so I am losing a load of data. But at least I am not back to square one.

I have a new hard drive at home... tomorrow I will grab my computer and start the process of hard drive replacement. This may take anywhere from an afternoon to a few days, depending on how much hassle all the software OS BS I have to wrestle with.

Well, good luck dealing with that. I know how it is to have computer problems. Six months after I got my laptop, I got a BSoD and even the Geek Squad at Best Buy couldn't figure it out. They said it might've been some kind of software problem. >.< Then, last year, my motherboard was fried. The first time, I lost all the data I had on my computer. This last time, however, it didn't affect my hard drive at all, cause at the time I wasn't sure and I had backed up my data because of it.

So, once again, good luck with your computer problems and I hope they all get fixed soon.

Well its that time again... I'm afraid to say that a couple of days ago my computer just... mysteriously died. As in... it wont turn on.

it could be anything from a quick fix to a broken part buyage to a complete meltdown. As of now its all up in the air.

So yeah... just to let you know I wont be on much until it is resolved.

Well I have a friend who has spare power supplies aplenty, which we think is the culprit behind this. So he is going to bring one over anytime now.

Hopefully this will be fixed in a matter of days... but I always try to remain skeptical of quick fixes when it comes to my computer... because SO often it takes much longer than you suspect. >.<

Anway thanks for the sentiments, hehe. When this is resolved I will get back to my posting. In the mean time... I feel a Call of Duty to answer heheh.

Whew... well. Thats over with. Two friends said they had power supplies for me, both of said supplies were unable to meet my requirements.

Add to that my dad finished work and has been spending every waking moment on his computer... and we get the total communication blackout which just happened!

But how am I talking to you now you ask? Well that answer is simple. I bought a power supply online and slapped it in myself.

Thats right... I am coming to you live from my own now working computer! Huzzah!
