I've spent all today (Monday) reformatting my work PC...I feel ya pain bro...

dude. my PC probs are always beyond rediculous. i spent 4 hours working on it after work yesterday.

i got a socket 754 Athlon64 3000+ and i got one of these mobos because i needed 4 IDE ports cos i got fucken 4 HDD and DVDrom and a DVD-RW.

http://www.giga-byte.com/MotherBoard/Pr ... 8NSNXP.htm

ive built PC's a million times (its like me job you know) so i was all like yeah fucken this is gunna be rad.

wacked it all in. cards and all cos i was pretty confident it was gunnae work. loaded up the XP SP2 cd. got past the initial file copy stage then BAM! blue screen.

hmm. tried again. same thing. double more concerned hmm. tried a XP SP1 cd. got further, like into the graphical stage. then blue screen.

decided to take out all the extra cards i put in, a stick of ram. even gave the RAM some more juice and turned off any onboard stuff like Firewire, RAID, LAN, etc in the BIOS. only 1 HDD plugged in.

finally got XP SP2 to install last night.

so i starting sticking the PCI cards in. started with my sound card. all good. then i stuck in the WiFi card, all good.

stuck the other 512 RAM chip in and went back into the BIOS and turned the other stuff on. all good.

started downloading some drivers and shit. then BAM! reboot.

now it gets to the welcome screen adn reboots.

so i did some card removing, and even tried safe mode, still reboots at this point.

lame.

so i thought it could be either RAM, PSU, WiFi card, bad Mobo.

loaded up Knoppix with everything plugged in. and its fine. so i reckon it might be the Mobo not likeing one of the above things.

gunna run memtest86 on the cunt of a thing tonight. if thats fine. i reckon its a dodgy mobo. fucken.

fecking lame fecking cunting fucknuckle.

ONE BIG ASS PROBLEM!!!!

I have two tickets for the Ferrari Box at the Melbourne Grand prix however I have to choose one mate today because Ferrari want names and addresses ASAP to make sure neither of us are terrorists.

SO HOW DO I CHOOSE??

Have worked out that I won't be inviting any chicks because there are too many fit, pit lane girls to have a female friend complaining all day about sexism. Gay guy could be good, suck the girls in then parm them off to me or the bogan rev head who knows everyting about cars and can talk shit with the rest of the motor headz at Ferrari.

Anyone have any better offers that might persuade me to ditch my mates?

me.

that should be enough to persuade you.

if this is your gripe i'd love to see your big ups...

Motorola!

My camera phone is basically useless as a camera phone - I can't download the photos to my PC - gives me all these error messages. Lots of toing and froing with their tech support has not managed to fix the problem - they're now saying there's something wrong with my PC and they can't help me.

"Are you sure you haven't had any other phones connected to this PC?"
"Yes"
"Are you SURE?"
"Yes"
"Really sure? Your friends haven't connected theirs to this PC?"
"Not unless they snuck in while I was sleeping. FFS I'm f***ing sure alright!"
"Well in that case we can't help you sorry"



So anyone looking to upgrade their phone - don't go with Motorola!

I have not had a problem doing it with mine SK.
And so what if a friend had done it anyway, would suck if that stopped you doing it.
I must admit i am not overly impressed with the phone though, had a few glitches.

Gripe: FUking contracts.

One of these was on my roof just as I was hopping into bed last night, I hate spiders.

they're saying that the errors I'm getting point to the fact that the port was used for another phone or that another program that I have installed is trying to use the phone as a modem. Or something.

I don't know

I give up

I might see if I can take it back - things do not bode well for me though cos I have another 18 months of the contract to go

dude. a mega uber huntsman was just above my door this morning.

huntsmans are rad. look at him. all furry and shit.

did you kill it!?

you bastard

GRIPE of the day seems to be good old :

that goon in the hat with the dogs in the fucking window on little collins st.

surely he can be slightly more creative and make up a new tune that involves dogs barking on cue. i mean all he does is stop playing and look at the thing and it barks.

those poor mutts could be so much more. im waiting for the day they snap and go straight for his jugular.

wots to joke about?

My gripe is Tuesday, the day.

For the following reasons:
The traffic is always worse on tuesdays.
Where other days have a purpose or a vibe, Tuesday has none eg) Monday is the start of week, Wednesday is the hump/middle of the week Thursday is good cos its pay day, and Friday ..well it goes without saying! But Tuesday...TUESDAY IS NOTHING!!

Why do we need Tuesday as a day of the week? What is its purpose??!?!

The ONLY redeeming feature of the day is that is 24 hours closer to the weekend...

over'n out

...oldies in those f*** motorised wheelchairs that go flying up and down the footpath, most times in a convoy and always expecting everyone to get out of their path. ...

There might be $6 lunches at the RSL , maybe even some free pokies tokens with the fish of the day but that aint no call for the motorised footpath militia.....why don't they drive their f*** cars at the same speed they drive them F1 chairs?

It's how they get their revenge on you young hooligans with your devil music. What's the world coming to?!

Re Tuesday... I slept through this tuesday, I recommend everyone do the same next week. I support the National Tuesday Sleep In.

I saw someone going 60 in the right lane of Nepean Hwy yesterday (where the speed limit is 80) wouldn't move out of the way for all the traffic backing up behind him either (I was in the middle lane - yay!)

Agree Keely

took me ages to get to work this morning.. over it

Gripe: lack of sleep. Have a working 8am-11pm today.

too many PC parts to choose from.

spent all morning reading goddamn reviews.

gripe 1: too much coffee

gripe 2: uni and how they manage over-complicate everything

Gripe : I dont think before i act...put my foot in it again.

gripe 3: imminent unemployment and therefore making a 4th gripe, job hunting.


shit i'm a grumpy bitch this arfternoon.

ONLY 7 MORE HOURS LEFT OF WORK.

i just kicked my toe! How can something so small hurt so bad?!?!

And Gripe #2: I have to go to work now. Ugh. Someone this tired shouldn't be trusted with sharp sissors.

gripe: need to get a decent job with weekly hours, i want the flow of money again!

Stubbing your toe sucks! I kicked my toe on a couch a few years ago on Christmas Day (ho ho ho, indeed) and it stayed black for days.

They've fucked with Tarzan. Cunts. It's now www.rolldabeats.com.

Why must people always take something that's perfectly good and useful and try and make it better and in the process ruin it? Dumn fucking cunts.

That's an initial gut reaction. Things might not be as bad as all that. Time will tell.

ok. Time's told. The new site has some nice features I like. Being able to sort releases in temporal order is way cool. I don't like how pretty it is. I don't trust pretty things.

its slow as shit.

its on the DOA server.

I don't like either, it doesn't work at my work, there is no field to type in a search item?????

i don't reckon it looks that nice at the top (teal and orange? ) but it definitely seems more usable than tarzan, and it's on a white background; big ticks.

big up the gripe thread!

Gripe: not having a gripe

the amount of shit that i have hoarded on my desk at work.

getting out of hand, gunna take me like 3 hours to tidy it up i reckon.

i have no desk.. thus avoid the hoard (back to gripe..)

Run-Time errors.

gah!

tow truck drivers....meh

trying to train someone with absolutely no social, professional or communcative skills to deal with the public. i have never come across someone so totally incompetant.

the only thing that managed to calm me down was feijoa and a fag which then broke my successful attemp at quitting...thus creating another.

<-- i think that perfectly describes how i was feeling.

Maybe a few jagers at skylounge will cure those headaches
