new harddrive.
i tend to get overly paranoid with my things. especially if its an electronic device with a lot of important data on it. I've gone through so many harddrives because I've declared them dying (maybe before they actually were) and i also have a bin with like 20 old hdd in it. no jokes my last drive actually WAS dying.
that is making clicky death noises randomly (but not quite dead...yet) and also taking forever and 90 years to open a file folder. (srsly my internet was faster than opening my documents)
SO I GOT A NEW DRIVE. now i have 935gb of space. the only bad thing is having to reinstall EVERY SINGLE THING. it feels like i should at least have more new components in my computer after that, BUT NOPE ITS THE SAME OLD SLOW CRAPthat won't even play alan wake :'c :'c :'c
i named my "NEW SYSTEM" stahlarms though because i am clearly not all creeping on stahl/killzone 3 atm. nope not at all.
i need to name the harddrive now too. it needs to be cool. but i will probably just call it Flea-Tortilla something.don't ask OH TOO LATE
AND NOW I GET TO SPEND ALL OF FOREVER INSTALLING PROGRAMS :'C
actually i had a lot more programs in my start menu in my old setup. but i dont even remember what i had installed. i feel like it should be important because i use the start menu instead of desktop shortcutsdesktop icons are ugly AND I JUST I DONT KNOW. im sure i'll remember. eventually.
this post is pointless but i'm waiting for junk to transfer/install and i feel like i can't do much of anything else!!!!!!!!!!!

This is why my computer is named GLaDOS and (nearly) everything that connects to it has a Portal-related name.Also your start menu is pretty similar to mine lmao. Except with a little more because I'm usually too lazy to pin everything. I'm glad to know I'm not the only person with a vendetta against desktop shortcuts though LOL. The only things I let have shortcuts on my desktop are my Steam games :I

my old start menu took up my entire screen. LOL. this one is literally half the size of my old one. ITS BUGGING ME BECUASE IM LIKE "HOW AM I MISSING THIS MANY THINGS ;___;"
i have NO SHORTCUTS except my poop/dump folder...things i am too lazy to save where they belong or temporary files (since i delete/sort them later on lol) and recycle bin. BUT YEAH. i like looking at my wallpaper usually when im on my desktop. SO I DONT WANT CRAP ALL OVER IT. >:c
no subject
JFC LOL. Though to be fair, mine would probably be bigger if Windows 7 didn't have a search bar right at the bottom of the start menu. So whenever I need a program, I just pull it up and search for it and smash the enter key until it opens lmao. WINDOWS 7 FEEDS MY LAZINESS.
This is how I feel too. I have a wallpaper for a reason. I want to look at it, not at millions of desktop icons. Whenever I see a screenshot of someone's desktop that is filled with icons, it just makes me want to cry :'c

I JUST FEEL LIKE IT SHOULD BE MORE TO WARRANT A NAME CHANGE LMAO. but then i realized i really wanted it to be called stahlarms SO YOU KNOW WHAT I JUST DID IT. also i really want to play alan wake. ;______________; someday!!!!!!!!!!! /flips table
W/E JERK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! some of us don't have the luxury of new OS!!!!!!!!!! plus i have like 100 million windows xp home keys i got for free from people giving me their old broken computers that had windows keys on them. LMFAO. /the best person/ SO I FEEL LIKE I NEED TO TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THIS. i'd have to PAY MONEY for windows 7 if i wanted it ok. my dad and my brother both got windows 7 but im like NNNNNNOOOOOOOOOOPPPPPPPPPPEEEEEEEEE im always the last one to change OS too. i resisted windows xp until a piece of hardware i got was no longer compatible with windows 98 (YES WINDOWS 98) .......actually windows 98 and windows xp are the only two OS i've ever used on my desktop. :'D
LMFAO ME TOO. IM ALWAYS LIKE BUT LOOK HOW CLUTTERED IT IS Ajhashkhsdhsdj.
even when im too lazy to sort my junk files i will at least move them so they're not blocking faces of my wallpaper. LOL.
no subject
LOL you would want to upgrade your hardware before even thinking about switching to Win7 anyway. It's all shiny and shit. At least whenever you finally do upgrade from XP you'll be skipping Vista... :D I also like how you went from 98 to XP and casually skipped the shit that was ME. JUST SKIP ALL THE SHIT OS RELEASES NBD.
EXACTLY. how does someone find anything when their desktop is so cluttered :'c and how do they see their wallpaper :'c :'c :'c

LMAO ITS FUNNY HOW THAT WORKED OUT, ISN'T IT?! I actually did notice this too. And yeah, I hear Windows 7 is useless sparkle (AND WELL, I HAVE IT ON MY NETBOOK, WHICH SHOULDN'T HAVE WINDOWS 7, IT SHOULD BE XP OK. its not made for windows7)
ugh i didnt even think about finding something. >:C people need to do it right or not do it at all ok. obviously i am god of computer desktops everywhere.
no subject
BUT IT'S PRETTY USELESS SPARKLE. You can turn the sparkle off (like I have on my laptop because dying graphics card lololol) but it's not nearly as cool. Win7 really is not made for netbooks though I don't even understand what people are smoking to want to put it on there.
My ex was someone who put EVERYTHING EVER ON THE DESKTOP and it annoyed the fuck out of me. He never could find anything either ftr. You are god of computer desktops though. You understand how they're supposed to work... :D
no subject
LMAO O GOD THAT WOULD BUG ME SO MUCH TOO. yea i get bothered wheni m lazy and using my desktop as a dumpign ground and it has more than 3 files on it ok. its like UNACCEPTABLE.
no subject
My laptop desktop has four files on it. mmhm is it bothering you yet? :D
no subject
.......yes..........so are those widgets on the right hand side. tell them this isn't mac os.
no subject
Yes, I thought you'd like the widgets too :) :) :) those aren't on by default in Win7 though. They were in Vista iirc which is why they're still on my laptop (since I upgraded it from Vista to Win7) but not on my desktop PC at all. I'd turn it off but I'm lazy and I like having the weather right there anyway :D
My desktop PC would annoy you even more though... I think it has SIX icons because games :D
