Wonderful Day

I've been stuck figuring what went wrong with this WIN 98 of mine for days, top of it I almost lost my entire data

But at least I've managed to make it online again

It could be corrupt DLL files.

I think so, also some probs on registry IIRC. Damn ! I think I better back up my data first and then format my HDD, reinstall everything and finally back it up with Norton Ghost on a CD. *KidD plays U2 "Beautiful Day" to keep him company while fixing his no good Win98*

Well, howz this for a day? I had to hand in a geography project that I'm sure to fail; after inviting 15 people to see a movie tomorrow after school, only 4 are coming; and I sprained my ankle during last period today, it really hurt, and I'm supposed to be skiing all next week.

No as bad as Aegis', but bad none the less.

That sounds delightful compared to my day today, though the trouble started in the middle of the night last night. Late last night, I found out that one of my friends from church(an 8-year-old girl) might have appendicitis. I won't know if she's okay until either tomorrow or Sunday. Then this afternoon, I got in a huge arguement with my parents. My finger, which I accidentally stuck in the fan of my CPU's heat sink yesterday, is still hurting. My computer freezes up at random moments. I need to reinstall BG1 and BG2 because of a glitch with the buttons at the bottom of the screen. BG1 on my laptop keeps having a tendancy to freeze up when I go to save. And Viconia won't join my party in BG1 this time through.

*heads off to the BG1 forum*

You stuck your finger in the heat sink.... I don't know how to respond to that one.

It was an accident...I currently have the side off my computer because I've been trying to figure out what's wrong with it. I can't see that side of my computer when I'm sitting at my desk, though. I was reaching down to try to feel the air being blown out by the heat sink and I got too close to it.

Thats a better excuse than what I was expecting. I've heard the usual it was an 'accident' routine. As for checking your heat sink, go into your BIOS to check it. A lot safer

Heh, yeah, I'm probably lucky that the most damage it did besides breaking my fingernail was jamming my finger.

Well at least fingernails grow back

Your not the only one

Thankfully I was still a youngster, so it somehow slid out if somewhat painfully.

LOL

it makes me feel better to hear someone else has done it, so are we both sad, or are we revolutionists?

Tamerlane · Post by **Tamerlane** » Thu Mar 07, 2002 5:23 am

Umm, let me see....I'd say revolutionists. Definetly genuine revolutionists.

Mind you I've never looked at a coke can in the same way as before.

The worst I've done was put my finger on a hot iron. The resulting blister was a pain.

Got a finger caught on an oven element, picked up some driftwood and threw it, not knowing it had a nail in it. Nail went through my finger, I had a muscle wrap itself around my oesophagus when I was a kid, had to have surgery and I've fallen down 2 flights of concrete stairs splitting my head open. It's amazing I'm still alive!

Yes, but I think that explains a lot.

It's amazing that I've only recieved one concussion in my life. When I was a baby, I fell backwards out the door of an RV, landing headfirst on the ground. When I was in 2nd grade, I rode my bicycle slowly off a ramp that was about 2' tall. The front wheel fell straight down, inertia through me forward over the handle bars, I landed headfirst on asphalt, then the bike flipped over and landed on top of me because I didn't bother to let go of the handlebars. My head impacting with the asphalt cracked open the asphalt, but just gave me a bad headache. Also on my bike, I ran into an 18-wheeler trailer, a barn, a shed, a parked car, and a tree. Plus I seem to have a tendancy hit my head against the wall while I'm asleep which is why I have pillows between me and the wall.

As you can see, I have a history of stupidity!

Ah... No wonder you talk so much crap!
