new harddrive.

antoj: (good for you)
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 CRAP that 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 shortcuts desktop 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!!!!!!!!!!!

Y THEY NO UPGRADE... they really do need to do it so you can salvage parts :'c

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

one time i looked up the specs to windows 7 and my netbook is barely skirting that line. and im just like "why would someone do this to you, you poor netbook" i mean it can barely play youtube videos because windows 7 is pooping all over it. if it had a cd drive i would totally try to install windows xp over the top of windows 7 bcuz it would probably run a lot better. LOL.

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.

Putting an OS on a system that JUST BARELY meets the minimum requirements is such a bad idea. That poor netbook. Every netbook, really. Poor all of them. As for the no CD drive, though... couldn't you make an ISO of your XP disc, install a virtual drive on your netbook and mount the ISO, and then set it to boot from the virtual drive? voila, XP installation, right?

My laptop desktop has four files on it. mmhm is it bothering you yet? :D

IT IS THE WORST IDEA. i kept wondering that too. poor netbook doesn't deserve that ok. esp cuz its crap windows7 where you cant even change the desktop without cheating. :|

.......yes..........so are those widgets on the right hand side. tell them this isn't mac os.

The netbook version of Win7 is the worst thing ever. No netbooks deserve that fate.

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

I agree, it really shouldn't. The desktop background thing still baffles me.

Now I'm going to keep the widgets there forever because they bother you :D :D :D
