Stupid Pastry

So tomorrow is D-Day for the big 1/3rd a mile apartment move...i am sort-of packed at this point, but have a TON of shit to do tonight, not to mention cleaning, etc!

***Warning: do not stand anywhere near my windows tonight, as i may get frustrated and start throwing all my shit out the window***

i am not a l33t h4x0r anymore...

I spent hours last night trying to put together my new computer (Athlon64, 1 GB ram, GeForce4, etc.)....the damn thing would not boot! fans would spin, drives would spin up, but no post or nothing. I spent another hour slowly disconnecting components to see where the POF (point-of-failure) was....i got down to everything being pulled out, and still nothing! I even reseated the CPU.

So today I am all ready to call and bitch out mwave.com for sending me defective parts....but first (since they don't open till 11AM EST) i went on MSI's site to see if they had any info for me....and low and behold, apparently there are TWO power connections that need to be made on the motherboard- one is the standard 16-pin motherboard power connector, and then the CPU requires a additional 4-pin power connection...

yes, i know....RTFM!

HOLY SHIT FEDEX DIDNT FUCK IT UP

my shit done arrive....time to dork-out tonight, in all my 64-bit glory.

Today is the day!

my long-delayed computer parts (what up athlon64!) are "on the truck for delivery"...which roughly translates into "we may leave your shit in a ditch somewhere and have a gopher sign for it"

Sorry I died

Yes so it has been awhile since I have last posted...no excuses really, just general laziness. Right now I am waiting impatiently for my new computer to show up so I can play Doom3! fucking fedex ground/home, NEVER EVER USE THEM!!! they gave my package away to someone without a signature, so my shipper had to file a claim with them, and reship me my products (via fedex air this time).

I also picked up ESPN NFL 2K5 for the PS2...best football game ever, hands down! (never play as the 2004 bears though...rex grossman throws like a bitch)
