Reminder...

There are people on the net that have nothing better to do with their time then be nasty to other people online. They post rude comments, spend hours a day talking about sites they hate so much, that they well, spend hours a day talking about them. (lame) They mock the owners and posters for their opinions and their right to free speech. They expect everyone to fit into their narrow-minded little world view or else they throw a temper tantrum.

To these people I say grow up.

Here's a bit of info people...the web is a HUGE place. If you don't like what I say here, or who I am, or what I do, or talk about, or what I look like, or the color of my hair, or whatever asinine thing you dwell on, go somewhere else. It's really, really easy. Honest. You just click the little "x" in the corner of your browser and *poof* the offending, big, mean and nasty site has disappeared.

I pay for this site. It's mine. That means I can use it for whatever the hell I want to. Don't like it if I'm bitching about something in my life? Oh fucking well. Go somewhere else. Think I'm stupid for expressing my thoughts? Too fucking bad, don't read them. Somewhere along the line, someone forgot this simple fact: Live and let live Don't like me, cool, fine, whatever, I don't care. This journal is NOT for you. It's for me. I'm not in it for popularity or fame or anything stupid like that. I write it because I need to write and express myself and get things out of my head sometimes. So read or don't, it doesn't matter, but don't waste my time (or yours) bitching about it.

Well, So Much For That
All day. Various combinations of ram sticks, slots and such all result in the same thing: reboot. I can't get more then about 3 or 4% through a virus scan before it shuts down. Violently. At this point, we're looking at potentially backing up my data and simply starting again.

*sighs*

I can't tell you how much I don't want to have to do that. It's taken me this long to get settled. I still don't have an ftp program but most everything else has been recreated in some form or another. But we're really just at our wit's end.

It might be a virus but I'll never know since we've tried four seperate antivirus programs and none will allow a full scan to complete.

It might still be a ram or slot problem, but since it doesn't seem to matter which we put where, there doesn't seem to be a solution for it.

It might be a corruption somewhere but I have no idea what, or why all of a sudden. And not knowing (nor having anyway to scan the system), I have no way of finding it.

Hell, my board itself could be going bad, causing the memory to fritz and therefore leave the blue-screen memory fault error but I don't have any way of determining that either. (There's apparently an MS tool you can use to check the error we get in the logs, but it requires you to make a floppy - I don't have a floppy drive in my pc - or burn as an .iso file - and my burner won't run in my system. So I can't use it.)

To say this situation is frustrating and agravating me is an understatment. I just want my pc to work again, not fear that it'll turn off in mid sentence (which it can and will), and not panic that all these crashes are corupting my data on the drive. I'm actually sick to my stomach over it all. We're no better off now then we were two days ago in figuring out what the hell is wrong with it!

I'm going to attempt to upload some of my photos off my camera of the jewerly I made yesterday. I'm anxious to get some feedback and I can't do that until I can get it to my pc and share it with you. Of course, I have no idea if it'll make it, but I'm going to try. Wish me luck. At this point, I'm out of other ideas. Luck seems as likely of working as anything else. (Or, if you're so inclined, feel free to curse the gremlins out of my system. Either way works. Heh.)

Alright, hopefully photos soon. *crosses fingers*
