My Windows Computer was manufactured in 1999, and has only been on this earth for 11 years, but it has been brutally taken from me in the prime of it's life. On Monday, April 19th, I was saving a video using Sony Vegas and closed down several nonessential programs to make Vegas run faster. At that time, the taskbar and desktop icons went blank, emulating a prior condition that my PC had experienced.
My PC was admitted to intensive care, but sadly, was never able to save the video. My PC was found in a comatose state on April 20th at 6:27 PM, completely unresponsive.
It became clear early on that the PC's natural defense systems had been compromised, and not even an intensive surgury could bring it out of it's vegetative state. The family pulled the plug at April 21st, 11:43 PM.
My PC was an old fashioned machine, and never wanted to have anything to do with the internet. It was with me for a large portion of my life, and had shared many memories with me, as well as helping me in developing a video game and two movies. However, due to it's tragic death, all of that information has been lost forever, along with the death of this majestic machine.
I will be holding the funeral services on April 30th...
:'( RIP

that's 110 in computer years, quite a long-lived computer.
Today, a miraculous advance in the condition of my computer was seen. Dispite having been inactive and unresponsive for nearly a week, my computer logged on in safe mode on April 26th. This was a major advance, mostly because the illness that had befallen my computer had also caused the scene, where you can choose whether to start in safe mode or not, to not appear.
As such, I was able to perform a near-total brain transplant from the decrepit old system into a brand new one!
Yeah... Ok, This kinda sucks... My RMVX doesn't work with Windows ME... >:(
That's the "new system" that I was talking about... haha! ;8
...
why Windows ME?
...
That was the question.
Good god.
You can slice cheese with a stepladder but there are much better alternatives.
it was the only other comp I had...
I've been trying to upgrayedd it, but it keeps running into issues... I just want to install XP operating system! But alas, I need new component after new component... and that damn bleach theme song is really fucking getting to me, but that is the only thing on right now that doesn't 100% piss me off... at the moment, however, it is up to 80% give or take 10%...
