Well I'm in the basement right now, working on a couple of things. I'm a little ticked off because things down here haven't been working out too good.
I was sitting down here for awhile trying that motherboard into another case, and still have had no luck. So I've taken all that I could off of the motherboard (battery, jumpers, memory I put on it, and the CPU that came with it) and trashed the motherboard, as it looks like there's no power going into it.
So after that I tried to change the processor into the computer that I thought it'd be compatable with. Turns out the computer I was going to put that in appears to be dead, too, it just sits there, power on, and nothing shows on the monitor. Ugh. I'll have to look at it to see if I can fix it. No idea when I'll do it but it's another headache I've gotta take care of.
Then I was going to try to put that Pentium 3 1.2GHz processor into that Dell OptiPlex GX150 that I had down here. There were a ton of bent pins on that CPU, and when I was straigtening them out, I snapped one of them off. So the CPU is no good. I threw it out, too. Ugh.
On the other side of things, I did have a little bit of a productive day today. I put gas in the Cavalier, got lunch, and went over to Best Buy, because my DTV Converter Box coupons came in the mail today.
I bought the 2 boxes, one for my dad's house, and the other for the carwash, used the 2 coupons that came in the mail, and used the store credit that my dad had from his converter boxes. (He bought one without the coupons and got store credit from it afterward), and I only had to pay out like $25.00 in the end. I'll bill out the converter box from the carwash and get my money back from it.
When I was out, I stopped at the thrift store, not for long, the only item of interest that I bought was a tiny little strobe light for $3.00. I'm thinking of mounting it on the wall somewhere in my little section of the basement, when we're partying or something I could turn it on, party on ! Or whenever I feel like it, as it is a cool little thing. Was thinking about getting a black light, too, dunno about that yet though.
Seems like more bad than good happened with me today. Oh well.
- Mike.
