    Talking Built my New PC

    I haven't been posting much of the day but I have been checking up now and then. That is because I have been working on setting up my newest PC Building Project. I did it before which was actually my server and It was time to build myself another custom PC for myself.

    It is an AMD Processor and I installed Windows XP Pro on it and it is working out great.

    I'll be posting some pics soon, but this is just to explain where I've been.

    My activity will be low the next few days because I have to get this PC running fully like my old one. Have no Photoshop or anything else installed.

    Am on the new PC right now and it pwns my old one any day

    I am excited to get this thing finally finished since 90% of my parts were shipped this morning. Took me about 2 hours putting this thing together and another 5 hours installing the operating system. Another hour to set up windows to my liking. Then shut it off and opened it up and re-did the wiring cuz they were all messed up. Then another 30 minutes spent fixing the internet because it wasn't working. And a bunch of headache periods in between but other than that, the built went smoothly.

    Btw for those on the GF TeamSpeak servers - uh..it's down because I accidently unplugged the power strip that the server power cords were plugged in to. I'll be getting it back up next weekend so expect a few days downtime. I am sorry for this technical issue but I just noticed that it was shut off a few minutes ago.

    LiNuX, I'm jealous. If it wasn't 10 o'clock at night here, I'd reach across the internet and slap you. And then run into my anti-ban bunker of course.

    But anyway, that's cool. I'm waiting for the money to get mine, I'm gonna get an Alienware and use this one for scrap, maybe run the *nix on it, maybe use it for scrap. You know what a computer freak I am, I can't wait to get a look at it...post pics ASAP dude...

    Thank ye kindly, StreetSoldier.

    lol, pics will come soon - the pics are from before I re-wired so it looks weird but I'll try to post them tomorrow or the day after, this pc doesn't have a memory card reader like my old one

    i am now running two custom self-built pcs side by side
