Life, Lust, and Silly Puns

Ok, just now, like 10 minutes ago.


I got a BSOD playing TF2. I did some researching, and although not much info turned up, I decided to swap my shiny RAM for my old RAM. We'll see how it goes.

So far, I haven't experienced any BSOD's yet, and my fps in TF2 has gone UP WOOT! Before my NeoPower, with my regular RAM and textures set to High, I got a 10-15 fps on intense scenes with 35-40 fps regularly. Now, I put in my NeoPower and shiny RAM back, and turned the textures back up to Very High. My low fps is now 20-25 with regular fps of 45-50. So yeah, a $60 PSU covers me for any future upgrades, and gains me 10 fps. Not bad at all.

So I was screwin' around with TF2 weapons in GMod, and I decided to backstab the Gman with the spy's knife. The knife came down... and my computer froze for a bit like it was loading. But suddenly..

BSODOMFG

It was the kind of BSOD that I got from mem0ry error, like a flash then sudden reboot.

That was last week. I got one again on Sunday while playing TF2. So I swapped out the shiny RAM for my old RAM, and I haven't had any BSOD's yet, but my FPS seems to have dropped. I don't really know what caused it to drop, but whatever.

So on Monday, Jasper and I went to Fry's and I bought an Antec 500W Neopower. I haven't installed it yet cuz my backpack is still at Jasper's house (Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday until I pick it up). So I hope this PSU solves my problems, but I guess we'll see.

My forecast says I have imminent money raining in soon, so I made a list of stuff I might buy.
Edit: now in order of importance. *'d items are probably not going to be bought.

- Tora 302's
- Power supply OR Core2Duo (very unlikely that I'm buying both)
- Chain and grips for Mesa...

This is the "maybe" list.
- Tiagra STI and/or Tiagra cranks
- Seat for Merg
- *Stem and spacers for Merg
- *Wheelset

Hm...

Finally, after such a long time of rain and red-bike-ing, I rode my Merg today, and damn, it's really smooth. The drivetrain is silent, and the shifting is really nice, even if it's Sora :P I rode a little less than 10 miles, but it still felt pretty good. I kinda want a new seat for my Merg, but my current goal is this beautiful Dart 3.



Delicious.
