Amazing Exactly what I have on my wish list for Christmas! (j/k) I do love your system set up , maybe "someday" I'll have a new computer but even then .. I know it won't be as nice as that one . You've been planning what you wanted to have in a computer for awhile now and I'm glad you got it  . |

I sat down and went to newegg.com and put in my cart for alot of different things and thought about which is better.
I actually got this: http://www.tomshardware.pl/cpu/20050607/images/tuniq_tower.jpg
But decided since i had already gotten a heatsink, I sold it.
I have 3 bids on ebay for more ram (These are the sticks I use):

I love the blue leds on the base and the tracers show actual ram hits. Looks like a christmas tree lights in red and green. Wouldve liked it to be red and blue or something different, But its kick a** looking.
I'm waiting impatiently for my top panel so I can add my 2 120mm fans for even better cooling (Right now my cpu temp is 21c which is GREAT), But it doesnt come out til jan. |

Looks great to me too! I get impatient with my old computer sometimes .. especially when I want something I'm trying to add somewhere and it freezes up on me .. but it's all worth it to have my son home (newer computer in his room) I sneak in every once in awhile to get my "need for speed" pick me up lol. It's kind of funny this year .. for christmas I don't want a thing , I already got my Christmas present early .. Christopher's home. My "Yen" for a better computer is put on hold for now and Gee how I wish you and courtney lived in "Pa." .. I'd be sneaking over to your house to beg to "Play on the computer" lmao! |

LOL, You'd come back with a nub if you touched it ;)
Ya, I got Need For Speed: Prostreet and it blows. I kinda like NFS Carbon (Black edition).
I play Gears of war, crysis, unreal tourney 3, call of duty 4, blacksite: area 51, hellgate, timeshift. |

I often think of selling stuff on e-bay but then I wouldn't know where to begin , come to think of it I do have a pay pal account set up thru e-bay .. but I don't remember why I did it lmao! |

Stupid a** xp, I took out a burner and got the dreaded re-activate xp msg. No biggie. Thats 1 of the quirks I HATE about Winblows. Add more ram, Change something and bam, The re-activate windows comes up, But its the 1st time in like 3 years I got that msg.
Also had to get another copy of Vista Ultimate, Mine decided it wanted to play dead and I didnt make a backup of it, This time I will, Since I am a registered user/owner of XP and Vista, But this time I didnt get the x86 version, I got the x64 version. 64bit BABY, Alot better/faster than the 32bit version. |

I'm getting that message with the Hp that I just added lots of memory to, I think something in the disk drive is going .. it's not reading some of the software c.d.'s like it should but music c.d.'s are fine , I only get this message on startup .. then .. .. after awhile the normal desktop shows up  . For becky's computer .. I thinking of getting the "red brick" to help it out , it's just so old and I'm thinking a external disk drive may be just the thing , all I gotta do is check the system requirements for it .. I know is compatable with Windows M.E. (that's what it's still running) . I have an external (H.P.) disk drive that I'm thinking of adding to the H.P. computer , I'm hoping it will help with whatevers going wrong with it ,I had it installed before but it took too much "space" so I uninstalled it .. now that I have over 700 mb's of space , that shouldn't be a problem. I got two computers ... you'd think I could get one to reallly rock lol. |

Nah, My vista dvd has a bad scratch on it and gets to a file and borks.
But since I dual boot, I was fine with using XP for the time being. Besides, I wanted the x64 version of Vista ultimate anyway.
I've got an external and gave my wife a 300gig external for her lappy.
I cant wait to get my replacement hdd rack on jan 2nd, So I can put my drives in it, And remove the hdd rack inside the system.
This is what it looks like: http://www.frozencpu.com/images/products/main/cpa-161.jpg
It comes with a 120mm fan, But I'm gonna remove it and put in a higher rpm blue LED fan.

Looks good ! I'll be a nag asking you questions once I swith over to Vista .. when I "gotta" change that is lol. Sorry for saying "hi" on Yahoo and disappearing last night , yahoo messenge just "had" to do a update at that time ! Why is it everytime I go to yahoo messenger .. there's a update? lol! After that I had to reboot and then the problem with my computer starts , it goes to the blue screen where you have choices to go to the boot menu.. system recovery .. and set up .. I think lol . Then in about 5 minutes it continues to load and desk top appears .Any ideas why it's loading like that? |
