Dilemmas Begone.

I haen't been online at all today. Well, aside from right now, lol, but yeah. At 7:30 I got up, and at 8:10 I woke Dad up so we could go for a bike ride. We got back...around 10 ish I guess, and messed around with the new RAM I bought for my computer, but we couldn't get it to work. By process of elimination we were lead to believe that two of my RAM chips didn't work together. We also plugged my video card back in, but that was still making funky noises. So, we spent aout 40 minutes phoning around for RAM, and anybody wh could fix the fan on my card. The fan was...uneen, and was rubbing against a spot on the central shaft, causing that droning noise I said about. Some techs said it could last for months, some said it could burn out, fuse my ports and kill my computer.
Anyway, Austin computers ripped us off before, so we went to Tang, where Dad had bought my new RAM stick the other day. Anyway, they are a great store...a lot more professional, a lot quieter and a lot more willing to work for your dollar. This great guy there worked on my comp for about half an hour...trying different RAM combinatios etc., but it didn't work. So, the most my comp can handle, without a BIOS update is 512mb. I guess I'll just stick with that.... next year my Dad is gonna buy me a 1337 laptop. Anyway, I ended up getting a new video-cad which works fine now... and like my old one it has TV-out. So, now that I can play BF:V and seeing as I've got TV out, my Dad decided to hook it up to his massive widesceen TV. So, outside my door in the living room is this widescree TV with Battlefield paused on it, whilst I type this up. It's pretty good for BF:V, but you dn't wanna have to read text on it >_<
Anyway, thats where I am right now. Hope you enoyed this post :p |
