[it's been shared around a lot lately, but Madelyn's post looked nicest].
My machine's watercooling gave up the ghost, and I think there may be some residual fucked-up-ness with my CPU not being able to reach its previous speed. [Dear Santa, I want a Mobile Athlon 2500+ for my Birthday.] But I'm back online after a long, frustrating evening.
K's machine is another story - Gru, what kind of PSU are you using with your Dragon? I've got an Antec 350 and that fucker still won't boot (no error beeps at boot, but "Video Signal Missing" - I don't even see a BIOS flash screen). So I went back to putting my old Epox 8RDA+ in her machine. . . . and it doesn't output a video signal, either. FSCK. I am presently wondering if the Antec is wonky, but have been verboten from fucking with her rig until I get everything else done.
Checklist:
- Laundry [at least my shite]
- Disassemble stereo equipment [to be done while laundry is in process]
- Call GB just in case the house won't be ready for us on 7/24 to look for temporary stuff and us accomodations [4 cats in Haus Westphal might be just a little too, uh, interesting].
- Pull out CDs I sold [if anyone wants the list of disks I'm looking to part with, comment here or email me] to take to dinner.
- Pack or put away all the damn computer parts that are strewn everywhere
Already done:
- Directions to Haus Westphal (a/k/a Gothopia Moonbase I] printed
- Rental truck reservation made
- Mushy phone call with
aishlynn
- Wally World/Dollar General to buy Clotheshangers
- Hit post office to drop stuff for MBI and
mpeace off
