Put the old video card back in, hooked it up to my suspect monitor, and managed to get it to display in Windows at least (it doesn't display the DOS screen while the system is booting) so I should be able to run like this until I can get a new video card tomorrow.
Just now, my system tried to pop up the TV tuner program to record "Lost". It not only dogs my system down almost to the point of being unusable, but it only displays about a quarter of the TV screen in the little tuner window. Luckily, it appears that the MPEG file it creates is all right...
Sunspots. That's it.
Evenin' folkses... [sip]
:-)
How do?
Tired. For some reason I've got *both* sets of auditors (inside and outside) on site for the last couple of days. They all need care and feeding all day all the time... and usually simultaneously.
Yeesh. Only another six weeks of this.
Hah!
blahblahblahblubberblubberblubber...
SOX SUX.
Mmmm... Lost.... Glad you got your problems properly diagnosed.
Cool pics. That catwalk thing they're putting up is just terrifying to look at. It's simply GOT to dance around in the wind.
That and it goes from lowpoint of... what... 400ft? up to the top of the towers at 700ft or so? I dunno... but it's really really high.
It's really high indeed... anything over about 100 feet is all about the same result though, except for the time you have to pray. ;~D
Well... that bridge is really high. So high that the people on their boats below look like little ants.
This is especially wierd, since you wouldn't expect ants to be able to drive boats that are so big. But there you have it.
Stop! Please! Poetry....give us Vogon poetry, anything!
Heh...
Oh - I gotta go - ecurbh's starting our dose of 24 for the evening.
We all make mistakes. :)
Boston is losing to Toronto, 2 - 7 bottom of the fifth.
The great spaceship hung clumsily in the air, in much the same way that a brick doesn't.
Uh oh... :-)
Aaaaack!
Been watching RotK with cast commentary on.
Boyd and Monaghan are a coupla ham sammiches :)
His mind was like six loose cans of beer rolling around in the back seat without that little plastic thingy to hold it all together.
Got the second load of laundry in the dryer....now for "Meyer Lansky: Mob Tycoon." Wonder if he had an aloe plant.
Izzat Homer Simpson?
