cabbitzilla: (ME-chan)
... I'm still going to have to do a full reinstall. There're registry issues with this machine that I'd made notes on and promptly forgotten. So now I yoink stuff off the main drive and then burn it down and rebuild. Probably for the best that way anyway.

For my local peeps...

I'm trying to scavenge parts to test a -much- better mainboard that's in my possession. I have the mainboard, a Celeron processor, 3gb of RAM and a 512m PCIX video card... what I lack is a processor fan/sink for a 775 and a reasonably intact case. Anyone have something like that sitting around that I could nab? I've got a little cash I can part with to try and compensate...

Finally, someone aimed me at THIS yesterday (thank you, Kitteh!). It's really trippy and appealing to just-waking-up cabbitses. :)

And once again the technical methodology of the Gorn proves to be the key. The backup machine, Annex, has registry issues. It also was choking completely on any form of video that wasn't Shockwave-based. This weekend I'm going to try and do the full reinstall, but was determined to make the video problem go away in the interim. After pounding on it most of the evening, I now have VLC working cleanly again.

So what do I do with it? Watch a few AMVs I'd seen a dozen times or more, then decide it was time for bed. :p

Since all I got from my last post was the lonely chirping of a cricket, I'm guessing nobody's got the hardware I was looking for. Not terribly surprising, that, since I'm one of the few that hoards random parts. Ah well, it was worth trying.

Anyway, I've been entertaining myself with a 'Chain of Song Titles' meme that [livejournal.com profile] shikyrie put up in his journal. I'm tempted to start one here, but I think I'll wait a bit until his wraps up. It's been amusing thus far. :)

Anywho, 's time for sleepies. G'nite, peeps.
