just a wonderful start of the week - grim digger - 06-02-2009
woke up yesteday to my p/c sitting on a black screen mentioning a "checksum error"
well after much research that basicly means your cmos bios went corrupt or to the crapper,and with out being able to start the dvd/cd to reinstall them,only thing to do is get a new mother board,
i have a older 64x2 proc. 939 socket with 400ddr memory well they dont make boards like that anymore
figured a new board will solve it nope no where to be found,
had to get a new proc, board and memory,well 2 days and $220 later
my hard drive decided to play dumb and say a hard disk error(most likley from turning off and on over the last 2 days) and for about 3 hours after trying to get it going it some how decided to work
now the best part the new proc. is suppose to be faster,buuuuutttt i dont think so that old work horse was much faster even though it was rated slower then the new one,
and by next week end this new system will be old:mad:
i just love this,i need a hobby,,, wait i have a few and im still not satisfied, there is no pleasing me

Lol, Just get a new i7 System. Quad Core Hyper Threading. with like 4 gigs of ram and vista and you will destroy evertyhing. My computer is fast and it only cost about 1300 to build with case (its now around 1000 for parts for the tower)
