How annoying can computers be?

Post by Timbe_ »

Everything seem to start when i turned 18 13.12.2008 when my pc crashed. It took me 4 days to find my windows xp cd's but for nothing! The pc's hardware have been corrupted(motherboard procerssor or ram or all together) Then when my vacation started 19.12.2008 i got my pc back in home from the apartment i go to school from. After a while "playing" with the old pc of mine it got broken! somehow it burned :turned: ! so then i ordered few parts 4gb of kingston valueram(was in storage) some crappy motherboard(was in storage of importer) and Intels q8200 processor(was in the nearby shop(60km away :thumbdown: )) well then after a while seemed like the motherboard were never coming to the guy i ordered it from so now 2 FREAKING weeks later i changed the motherboard and it should leave the shop very soon(today).

these i ordered now:
motherboard: http://www.asus.com/products.aspx?l1=3& ... odelmenu=1
processor: http://ark.intel.com/cpu.aspx?groupId=36547
ram: kingston valueram 4GB 800MHz DDR2 Non-ECC CL5 DIMM (Kit of 2) <- i dont like their homepage

the stuff i allready have from old pc
Asus 7600GT: http://asus.com/products.aspx?l1=2&l2=6 ... odelmenu=1
Seagate 1Tb HDD
WD my book 1Tb external HDD

Err, the link to the processor goes to the motherboard again. :D

Good luck with getting it going, I know how frustrating it can be when it all goes pop and you get stuck without a proper PC for weeks. It all looks like good kit thought so you should have a nice PC on your hands when it's all glued together. :D

Sorry, I hate computers. Nothing but grief, unless it is working then it's :headbang:

I call them boxes of madness. During the mid 1990's I actually didn't use a computer for about 2 years because I hated them so much.

computers can be rather annoying, once pluged a wire in wrong place, turned comp on, started smelling burning plastic, and my comp wouldnt start, i had actully burnt a wire and screwed the mobo :(, and with this new setup the cpu heatsink was rather hard to get on, so it sat partly off the cpu for 6 months, constantly overheating when it was on, till i put it on properly, now it doesnt go over 60 degrees celsius

with komplex things its like that. The best way to avoid such problems is to not buy things tbh. If you dont buy things, the things cant give you problems. Unfortuntaly, when buying things the problems they give are in the package you buy :)
