I've been having computer trouble, as of this weekend. As of right now, my computer is currently down and being looked at. Unfortunately, I don't know when exactly it'll be fixed. I expect to be back online regularly, but I'm not sure on the when yet. As a result, I don't expect to be on quite as much. Don't worry, I will still be around on a regular basis, just not as often. I still intend to be around as often as I can manage. Hopefully, this inconvenience shouldn't last too long. Still, I figure you folks need to know. See you folks around.

And I figured that less people would be online just because it's the end of summer and people tend to go on vacations and such, but it looks that it's more due to computer problems.
Well, hope you get it fixed soon Steve! ^_^

Thanks, folks. Immediate crisis is over for now, thankfully. I'm running on a used laptop for the time being. I still don't know when my proper comp is going to be fixed, but I'll at least be online until it's done. So it seems you guys haven't gotten rid of me. Yet. ;D

Nice to know Steve is human too. ;D
I might be off-line for a day or two next week while we re-install everything (once I buy a portable drive in order to save some stuff on that I can't onto discs) to get the computer running better.
Shouldn't be too long, and I'll let you know when it happens.

Sorry to hear that you are still having computer problems, Steve. I hope they get it fixed soon. I'm glad you will still be able to be around though. You'd be missed a bunch it you were gone for any period of time. Shan

Phil I hope doing a fresh install will solve all the problems that you have been having. Don't take to long in doing it though. I wouldn't know what to do if you weren't around. Shan

Your computer problems don’t have anything to do with throwing or whacking your computer with your keyboard does it? Kidding ;D Hey, I wish the repairs to cost you next to nothing. That's always a good thing. Tsel

True that, Tsel. Fortunately, my comp is still under warranty, so expense shouldn't be a problem. It's just a matter of when it'll be fixed rather than how much at this point. As it is, I figure things could be a whole lot worse.

Well, turns out I couldn't afford a portable drive big enough to store all the megabytes of what I wanted to save (my Naruto folder alone is 1.05 GB), so I guess it's back to square one and just trying to figure out how to save them to discs and actually keep them there.

Phil Did you ever run down the reason files kept disappearing from your burned cds? Shan

Post by janggut on Sept 7, 2005 4:59:15 GMT
have u any other computer around the house which u can shift the cd burner to & try out if the problem persist there as well? it may well be your burner's laser module going the way of the dodo.
i can't recall what we've discussed about your burning problems (u're a pathetic arsonist, that's for sure ;D ) but have u tried burning at low speed? such as 8x.

Well, the plan right now is to wait until I can afford a 40GB Seagate portable external hard drive ( costs around $120 ) which I think I should be able to within two months. That should be more than enough to save everything so that I can re-install my computer without losing anything. My dad says he may help me buy one so it may be sooner rather than later, hopefully so.
( Maybe I can get a 120 GB one - that only costs 30 more dollars. )
I can afford a 512MB right now ($60) but that won't be enough. I just have to wait a little more. I should have mentioned it on my birthday list. =)
