CIPWTTKT&GC v0X12 (v18): Makol can't Computer Very Good - Hardware & Software

keep that gloss there and make the text that matte black around the glossy part

[QUOTE=wingless;35118168]It would look better if the "GEFORCE GTX" was the same black as the plastic or a slightly different shade of the black.[/QUOTE] The way it is now looks like they hand painted it on

[QUOTE=Warship;35118073]...And then you posted about it on the internet[/QUOTE] :( I get bored and lonely

Bores as fuck at school, have to be here for atleast two more hours and I want coffee.

So last thursday, my local university was playing in the Big East tournament. We're all big Syracuse University fans at my school, so I found a livestream online of ESPN and went around to like 10 classrooms setting it up for them. Today, I get called up to the library thinking they're gonna yell at me, and the librarians are like: "A little birdy told us you know where to find free streams of SU games online... Can you hook us up with a link since the IT guys still haven't fixed OUR FREE STREAMS of them on the network?" So I just ended up hooking the entire school up with the basketball games this month. I figured they were going to yell at me. So thank god I didn't. They kept saying how I'm a genius and how the school needs to hire me/I'll end up with an amazing job... All I did was find a ustream link... V:v:V

Oh lord, Vista SP2 is installing on neighbour's laptop. I've had less than good experiences with Vista and SP's.

This shit better not fuck up, I want to return this damn laptop soon. I wish Windows just downloaded all the updates and installed them all in one go.

I honestly never had problems with vista. Quit your bitching

Aah, I changed to router to a bridge, and when I reset it to get it back as a router something fucked up. The internet drops out every minute, and I can't get into the router config page anymore. The default gateway address doesn't work D:

[QUOTE=altern;35120277]I honestly never had problems with vista. Quit your bitching[/QUOTE] Neither did I. But in W7 there is a much better boot time. And libraries are actually useful.

[QUOTE=Aloveoftheworld;35120414]Wire yourself to the device or hit the reset button[/QUOTE] I'm already plugged in by cable to the router, and I've reset it a few times already

[QUOTE=MC3craze;35120444]That's not really a spoiler, the whole series is about stopping the reapers.[/QUOTE] You just ruined it for me

[QUOTE=KillerTele;35120438]I'm already plugged in by cable to the router, and I've reset it a few times already[/QUOTE] Try Unpluging the device for 2 mins If that fails....I'd do it once more then hit the reset button rightaway (Some of them you need to hold it down...) Whats your router?

Whats your router?[/QUOTE] A Zyxel P-2601HN-F1 And yeah, to reset it I gotta hold down the button for a few secs. I'll turn it off while I fix my dinner :D

I want to murder the fucking idiots behind Windows Update. Compare files, download new versions, replace old with new, force user to reboot because the current architecture probably doesn't allow updating something on-the-fly, and you're straight to the most current bloody version. If Linux can do this shit, Windows should be able to.

[editline]13th March 2012[/editline] I just reboot whenever I'm going to make lunch or whatever.

Fuck me. I have a presentation today for my English class. I have my script but not the actual powerpoint because the script is on my tablet and the powerpoint is on my flash drive, which I left at home. I suppose I just got a bad stomach flu and won't be able to present today :v:

[QUOTE=KillerTele;35120833]Shutting it off for a few minutes fixed it. Thanks :D[/QUOTE] Okay no it didn't, I can get into the config for the router, but the internet keeps dropping every few minutes. Help meeee

[QUOTE=nikomo;35121069]Installing updates 1/1 -- A MILLION YEARS LATER -- Installing updates 1/1[/QUOTE] More like Installing updates 12/13.... I figure that it'll finish in a bit and go to bed. Wake up, find computer running. Installing updates 12/13..

.. Turns out neighbour is in town until 7PM. So a bit over an hour till she gets home. But she's probably taking the bus, so I've got more like an hour and a half. Looks like I'm not in a hurry.
