tcepsaIiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiit's... Monday night. Just doesn't have the same ring to it...
Anyway, it worked. I'm now on a fresh new clean install of Windows. How fresh? Fresh enough that I need to get SP1 on here. And yet despite all that freshness, I still feel dirty... and not in a good way! I'm up a new motherboard (which hopefully includes functional USB 2.0 ports) and down a gigabyte of RAM--though even that has a silver lining, since now the remaining RAM is free to unleash its full 164-bit dual channel glory (the stuff that died was dragging everything down to 64-bit, so this ought to theoretically be significantly faster. Anyone care to confirm/debunk that for me? Anyone? Bueller?)
Erm, actually, why don't I stop writing about how fresh and clean my install is and just put a big target on my computer with the words "|-|axx0rz \/\/3|c0m3!!1!!1!ONE!!" written on it? At least I've gotten Firefox installed...
(oh yeah, and I seem to have also lost my partition containing all my downloads in some freak formatting accident. So much for not having to re-fetch everything! Ah well. ~stiffens upper lip~ It builds Character! (Tee Em) )
