Bungie.net : News - Area Teen gives up gaming

Hahahahahaha, I wish it was true and that every little anonyning jerk would stop playing Halo.

EasyMOD v0.2.0 Released!

June 21st, 2005, 04:02 pm

Read all about it

EasyMOD has been handed over to the phpBB Modifications Team for development so expect more work to be done on EasyMOD!

Almost setup!

June 15th, 2005, 12:28 am

I have installed Windows 2000 and all of the drivers on this new computer. Still need to install Firefox, all of the stupid messengers, and everything else that I use.

I was hoping to get SuSE installed but I think my DVD drive is messed up. For some reason it will install the 32 bit version of SuSE just fine but not the 64 bit. I’m thinking that the 64 bit might be on the second layer of the DVD and the drive is having problems reading that layer. I’m thinking I’ll go buy another drive tomorrow to see if that fixes the problem. Hopefully it will.

I just love the frustrations of building/setting up a new computer ;)

New Computer!

June 11th, 2005, 01:55 am

Over the past little while I have been ordering parts for a new computer. All of them are here now except for the most important part, the processor. My excitement has gotten the best of me and I have put it together. So it is ready to start installing everything on once I get the processor which should come either Monday or Tuesday.

I could have had it all done today except the processor I bought from a local computer dealer was the wrong socket. It was a socket 754 when I need a socket 939. Something like this usually always happens to me. The local dealer didn’t have any of the socket 939 so he has to order one for me.

Enough about that, lets get on to the specs of the machine. If it wasn’t late, I would give you a link to all of the parts. I might add them later.

  • AMD Athlon 64 3000+
  • Two sticks of 256 MB DDR pc3200 (400mhz) RAM (I got two sticks of 256 because it was cheaper than buying one 512 MB stick)
  • 250 GB SATA hard drive
  • 128 MB Geforce FX 5200 video card
  • 12 x DVD ROM
  • 52×32x52 CD RW drive
  • Floppy drive
  • Mother board is a Chaintech S1689
  • To top it off, a silver window case with lots of blue LED lights in the case fans and the front of the case

On this machine I plan to partition the drive into two parts (I haven’t decided on what sizes). One partition I’ll install SuSE Linux which should be showing up soon. The other partion will hold Windows 2000 Profeesional so I can still play all of my games :D I’m hoping to start using Linux more than I use Windows.

On June 20th there will be some big EasyMOD news so everyone will want to head over to area51 on that day to find out what it is. I can’t say anything more until that day.

I’m tired so I’m going to go to bed. Good night.

Slapped by the Music Baton

June 3rd, 2005, 04:09 pm

I got slapped with this a while back by ZeroK. I’m not a big fan of chain mail or chain anything but since everyone else is doing it and I don’t want to be the party pooper so here it is.

Total volume of music files on my computer…

4.4 GB I prefer CDs and don’t really want to take the time to rip all of my CDs.

The last cd I bought was…

Metallica’s Black Album

I got this about a week ago. I really like a lot of the songs by Metallica and it was finally time to get a CD.

Song playing right now…

Quiet Riot - Cum on Feel the Noize

Yes, I like the 70s, 80s, 90s, and today!

Five albums I listen to a lot…

Yes, I can count and I know that is more than five. I really hate deciding favorite songs so I chose to do albums. These are the ones that I find myself listening to the most. I do listen to a lot more than that though.

The five people where this meme will go on…

I don’t want to find five people that don’t already have this so I’ll hand it over to my sister, Emily, only.
