When I said I'd "got the thing"...

BlogpostAuthor: CyclonesuePublished: Jun 05, 2007Views: 763

On 8th May, Boring-Blog-Entry-Number-3787 I was crowing about how I could do anything! ANYTHING! Well, I could cure blue screen crashes anyway by ripping out a hard disk drive that was reporting as failing...

WRONG!

The blue screen crashes restarted with a vengeance, and increased in intensity, with reports of another two hard drives failing, my DVD burner not working and the floppy drive (yes, I really do use this relic) failing too. Apparently not the hard disk then. Glad I didn't throw it out, which is hardly surprising given I can still have last week's take-away box not thrown out too......

A dying disk controller, ergo a motherboard replacement (or, in my non-technically-adept case, a new PC). And so here it is, without Sims installed or anything yet. But it DOES have the keyboard plugged in, which means I can still bore you to tears. Now, isn't that simply WONDERFUL?!

Oh, I'm so sorry you are still having troubles with the computer. But I can't help laughing at your final sentence.

Your blog is the only one I regularly read and it is the funniest there is. You're not even in the vicinity of boring.

Oh and doesn't everyone still use the floppy drive? *Remembers having to pay extra to get one put into my latest computer - guess not*
