Wolfsblood

Looks good. Love the Scarlet and Gray theme you have rocking there.

Go Buckeyes.

My boys. 2 1/2 year old Sean helping feed his 1 yr old brother Kyle.

Golfing was a blast today... We saw a hawk up close with a squirrel in it's claws. Dingy managed to tip his cart!

WTG Dingy! Hope you all survived.

Love to help, but it's been a couple decades since I've been to Mass, and I was coming from the Cleveland, OH area. Only areas on your trip that are remotely familiar are the Shenandoah valley area, but you would already know the good places in that area. Hope you have a great and safe trip though.

1?

ONE! 1!

5.

Wolfsblood.

Well done. Nice find.

7?

Catchy, but the auto-tune technique they used is kinda choppy.

That's because they set the timing to zero, which means the computer changes the pitch instantaneously from pitch to pitch.

My contribution to ya'lls edumacation.

anytime i sell on craiglist, i start the post in big obnoxious h1 font saying: "if your subject line does not include the solution to 4+8, it will be deleted" then continue on with the post.

 

i also create a filter that moves anything to the cl email address to a labeled archive.

Does the answer have to be correct? I'm not good at the higher maths.....

I can also bring my ut2k4 disks so peeps that don't have play it for the weekend. Get some deathmatch, or team deathmatch going.

God bless you and you sister Wayfarer. It's encouraging indeed to hear that there are research developments underway that may lead to treatment options for you guys. We'll continue to keep you, and Dr. Mills in our prayers that his research will prove successful.

Take care my friend and keep in touch.

Wolfsblood.

i will have Uno cards as well

Uno?

 

How about euchre? More fun when yer dunk. hic!

I'd play euchre.

and for the OHIO locations its at Cleveland, Columbus and Cincinatti, this is the # for Cleveland if ya guys need it 440-892-1415

lol it's Cincinnati! Butchering my own towns name, sheesh!

 

lmao, i missed an "n" whoopdedoo hahaha

and you added an extra t!

Hey, we're free to misspell Cinncinatti all we want. If you want to correct us, come to FragFest. Srsly, it's only about 5 hour drive or so. You should come, just to correct our spelingz.

I'm in again this year. Thief_Lord will also be coming again this year, and will be sending in his monies soon if not already. Looking forward to seeing you all again, no golf for me this year though since we have too much work scheduled that week to allow me to demonstrate my 1337 golfing skillz again.

 

Topic title should read: Wolfsblood reporting for duty. That's what I get for drunk posting. *sigh*

But what about grunk dolfing. Er....drunk golfing?

Any sport you can play while drinking is a good one. Make that any game.... Sadly I'll not be able to regale you all with my super uber golfing abilities. Believe me, I'd rather be golfing than be at work, and I like my job.

now THAT! i will go to FF for hha, jk. FL has no D&B how sad

... we do too T_T although there is none near me.

Yes there is, not exactly close, but there is one. I think it's about 1/2 way to Sandusky, home of Cedar Point. Also may be one somewhere in Cleveland, not sure about that one, I remember hearing radio commercials for it. I'm sure they have a website with a "find locations" feature.

There is one in Cleveland, but I don't know where. Some family members have gone there, but they never invite me.

1:30pm on May 15, 2009, no gcftw servers in the main internets server list, so I jumped into whatever the server is called now using my bookmark and played a few rounds. by the time I had to leave, there were 3-4 other random peeps in there.

FYI

Excellent. Keep creating and keep having fun with music.

Tuesday, Wed, and Thursday's are the best days for Cedar Point. Most people take the long weekends and hit the park from Fri- Monday. I love the park, but haven't been able to get there for several years now. /sad

At this point, I'm thinking it's most likely the mobo. All the components seem to be getting power, and the fact that mbm 5 was showing the proc running much slower than it was supposed to. It's possible that the psu is failing. I do have a tester for that at least. I was really hoping to get at least another year out of it though. Just had to drop an unexpected $1500 into some emergency house repairs and don't have a lot of extra cash to build a new system. But at least by building one, I can spread the hit out over a longer period than dropping a bunch of coin on a store bought one, and I get to pick the parts.

Oh the other thing it did was the last time it (sorta) booted, I hit the del key to enter the bios and it hung on that screen and never went into the bios. In my mind, that's one more tick mark on the mobo side of the equation. Forgot about that until now. :/

Oh, and ZD, the only other psu's I have handy would be woefully underpowered. Well, those and one that I fried in another computer. oops. >.< Dells don't like non-dell psu's..... just fyi, lol

Thanks for the offers though Dweezil and Preacher. Much appreciated.

Thanks for all the info everyone. Pretty much backed what I thought the issue was, and I know it's not worth trying to buy new replacement parts. I was just hoping that I was missing something obvious and it would magically work again.

Ok, I've got an aging computer that my wife uses primarily for web stuff and photo and video editing. Used to be my old gaming rig which she also used but since then we've added 2 kids to the household and gaming time has greatly diminished.

Anyway, specs: ASUS a7n8x-x Athlon 2800+ Barton core, 2 gigs RAM (various brands) eVga 7800gt AGP card, 420 watt PSU.

What it was doing:

Booting normally for a long time, then sometimes there would be no video display. Shutting it down ans re-seating the video cable sometimes got it to come back, other times not. Used both the vga and dvi outputs on the card, both worked sometimes. When the machine was running, it would occasionally flicker to black for a split second, fast enough that if you blinked you might miss it. Seemed to be random. We had another eVga 7800gt RMA'd because I figured it was the card that was causing the problem. This seemed likely since an old ATI 9800 pro was working fine as long as you didn't play 3d games (it was old and overheating when taxed). The problem went away for a few months after getting the replacement 7800gt, and then came back a couple days ago.

What it is doing now:

nothing. Well, not totally nothing. The fans spin up, the GPU fan on the GeForce 7800gt spins up, the optical and floppy drives do their thing, it sounds like it's booting up, but no display. Now the ATI 9800 pro gives no display either, and even if it did, it would be no help since the fan is kaput. (bearings feel like they seized up) Last time I got it to boot into windows, I noticed that Motherboard Monitor 5 showed the processor as running at 100 Mhz FSB instead of the default 166 and the speed was showing as 1275 instead of the default 2083. It used to be oc'd to 2230, but had been backed down about a year ago to the mid 2100's I think.

My guess is that the mobo is shot, but do not know how to test it. It's also possible that the proc is bad, but again I have no way of knowing or testing. At least I don't know how to test these things.

I've tried to swap out those items that I can to eliminate them as culprits. So far, I'm, reasonably sure it's not the gfx card, nor the monitor as the problem is still there on both AGP cards I have here, and on multiple monitors I've tried.

Ideas? Anyone have any unwanted components lying around?

Woohoo!

Hope you have a good one.
