New computer ordered.

Well, it seems my current computer has suddenly shit right up.
I can't turn the thing on now, after putting it into sleep mode it just won't turn on at all, fuck.

It's forced my hand, I had to buy the new computer I wanted NOW rather than later.
I was going to order the computer when I got the money but now I have to get it ASAP, which'll be Friday thankfully.

Until then, I've got to use my mum's old computer to get on the internet, thankfully I've got my portable firefox with a lot of my personal settings on it, not all of them though simply because some extensions or bookmarks would be too personal for a workplace or not compatible due to firewalls (E.G. Internet banking and shopping.)

Maybe if I'm lucky, I WILL be able to turn my old hunk of junk back on soon, I got lucky but put it back into sleep mode to see if it was a one-off error, big mistake. Otherwise, I don't think I can count on getting my personalised home firefox back, but at least I will still have all my flash projects, videos, music, pictures, documents, DS files and such safe on my other hard drive, which I'm just gonna put into my new computer, nice.

Edit: The system was due to be delivered on Friday, but didn't arrive.
I'll just have to wait until Monday now, great. At least I have the week off.

Edit: Parcelforce FUCKED UP, fucking Royal Mail package delivery.
They somehow "missorted" my package (that's not even a WORD) and the tracking page says it was refused by the addresse, refused by WHO?!

your lucky that you had already ordered your new computer! thought I dont realy know what sleep mode does! meybe you have to press the on button! that's what I do when mine is on stand by!

RupeeClock 2007-10-17 14:25:49

How fucking stupid do you think I am? Uh, maybe I DO have to press the on button to turn a computer back on!

Wiiporter 2007-10-17 16:11:38

I'm on my 5th computer, and I am almost certain It's gonna fuck up soon.

RupeeClock 2007-10-17 16:11:38

Oh, great.

WasabiClock 2007-10-17 22:39:59

That must really suck,you should at least try to transfer your computer hardrive to your new one when you get,so in that way you wouldn't lose a lot of data =)

RupeeClock 2007-10-17 22:39:59

That's exactly what I plan to do, so I can at least retrieve my personal data.
I have two hard drives, one for windows, for one everything else with my documents, flash, videos, etc. That one should be safe.

Never heard of a computer die like that but they have unique ways of motivating you to buy a new computer. Oh and happy birthday :D

RupeeClock 2007-10-18 13:40:39

I was going to buy a new computer regardless of this fuck up.

luigipwnsmario 2007-10-18 14:06:43

RupeeClock 2007-10-18 14:06:43

Bye bye.

SpaxClock 2007-10-18 16:37:37

Really?What kind?

RupeeClock 2007-10-18 16:37:37

Look through my old news posts, one of them is about the computer I planned to order, and have.

DarkraiChao 2007-10-18 17:41:34

I love computers, they can hear your hair growing!!!

RupeeClock 2007-10-18 17:41:34

Well, I suppose they CAN, if you programmed them to do that...

Xavier-Crivios 2007-10-18 19:56:56

Will you be getting vista on you new computer? Or will you have XP?

RupeeClock 2007-10-18 19:56:56

Vista, it is a good operating system to tell you the truth but it needs Service Pack 1 soon.
Besides, XP can't use a Dual core processor.

Wiiporter 2007-10-19 07:06:44

I wish I could afford a new computer, perferably not a slow ass laptop like this.

Happy Birthday...

KKyuubi 2007-10-19 16:11:49

Actually Rupee, you CAN have a dual-core computer with XP. What makes you not be able to? My computer has an Athlon 64X2 processor, and it ran XP (before I upgraded to Vista anyway)

RupeeClock 2007-10-19 16:11:49

I said "Utilise"

Yes, XP can use the processor, but Vista can make use of both cores.
At least, that's what I've heard. (I still want Vista anyway.)

RupeeClock 2007-10-22 08:15:57

It still hasn't arrived.

Fucking Parcel force and Royal Mail.

auroradafox 2007-10-22 14:09:52

Wow that's gay, you can get a refund right?

RupeeClock 2007-10-22 14:09:52

I'm still getting the system, this fuck up has nothing to do with the computer company, it's the delivery service.

aaahhhh 2007-10-22 15:10:31

samething happened to my compter but hope your hardrive does not fuck up new compter.

RupeeClock 2007-10-22 15:10:31

What's a compter?

Wiiporter 2007-10-22 16:12:35

Jackass Royal mailmen, probably stole it.

Xavier-Crivios 2007-10-22 16:44:58

That sucks, Fucking royal delivery, just go to best buy or something...or some shit.

RupeeClock 2007-10-22 16:44:58

Uh, no, best buy doesn't exist in the UK, and Novatech is really cheap.
The problem is the delivery service and nothing more.

Unkle-Krakerz 2007-10-22 18:03:24

Well thanks for making a post on Jeff's profile after I informed you.

I feel honored.
