Torture…. Interrupted (Alert – Geek Stuff)

Share Button

Well, I could (and probably will) go on and on about the tortured logic infecting the GOP, but my computer used to record and store my music is having a nervous breakdown. It’s a Windows XP machine, and has been running problem free for over two years, so I guess I’m overdue. Firefox keeps crashing, the internet connection disconnect without warning, and even the command line has become unstable. If you type “cmd” in the run box, the screen goes blank for a second and then … nothing; I’m back to the desktop.

So it looks like it’s time to reinstall XP. Too bad, because I had this computer tweaked to be a fine DAW. Oh Well. At I don’t have the dreaded “Blue Screen Of Death” to contend with.

    ~5 yrs w/ same install of XP pro on my comp, still chuggin’ along… MAYBE it’s those dodgy Russian porn sites you’ve been known to frequent. Not that I know what that means…

    Did you say “dodgy” or “doggy”? If it’s the latter… I know nothing!

    Well that’s just silly. Everyone knows the Hungarian porn sites are the best. Russian?! Feh!

    I highly recommend an UPS, will extend the life of your hardware immensely. And not just a battery backup, but a line conditioning model is the way to go.
