Title: I'm not gone
Post by: Letus on July 08, 2013, 02:43:35 am

the hard drive on my laptop, the one that I use to play the game on and the only computer that I can play the game on well, died last tuesday.

It's in the repair shop...hopefully I'll be back next week.

Should've mentioned earlier, but a whole ton of crap happened called "holiday weekend."

I'm going to assume a spilled drink? Possibly a small child.

Blame the cat. They don't argue, and they are too cute for you to stay mad at for any length of time.

I don't find cats cute. I find they look like creepy little murder machines.

Dunno what happened really.  Could  be anything from Shink to my dog (she's been a coward since kids fired bottle rockets at her a couple years ago, so the firework season...well yeah...she crawls under my bed, but I never put my laptop down in the traffic area.)

I have noticed the computer working a bit slower, and then the morning I went to boot it up, well it made a clicking sound followed by a "you need an operating system" message...

Shop says it should be fixed and ready to pick up tomorrow morning, meaning I should be playing on thursday again.

Clicking and that message together generally means your hard drive died.

I'm in a different country, how could I possibly have destroyed it from this far away? It wasn't me.

A loud "thud" followed by an error in the top left of your screen reading "N-Sunderland destroyed Hard-Drive."



Sneaky.

Indeed.

Buuuut the news got worst for me.
Wasn't just the harddrive, but the motherboard was fried as well...so...I'm not back this weekend...kinda sucks since I need to update the lumberjack guide....but the video is on that one comp (could probably download it off youtube and fix it off here, but this one lags on the game sooo badly...)

Good news is that I have enough money to buy another laptop, bad news is...gonna be a while...
Want to know if there is a copy of that laptop that isn't windows 8...



But the culprit falls down to the pre 1.3 flaregun...

so yeah...
motherboard replacement

...
hopefully another week until I'm on is the side effect.
