    Argh! I ran out of coffee creamer and I had to.. SHOP! :ahhh: :gulp:

    Thankfully it wasn't too busy, so i got my creamer and some diet soda without incident. I then dropped off groceries and walked up to the coffee shop, which it turns out is OPEN CHRISTMAS DAY! :-S :bug: Weird!

    Still not a lot of joy with penguins and bikinis. Urgh, hard work! It's not all just scaling, feh.

    Time to sip on the latte'! :)

    Merry Christmas Eve or Merry Christmas everyone! :cheese: :cheese: :cheese:

    The Unflateable Tree.. unflated. :blank: :smirk: so it's going to need more air. Oh well, it only cost ten bucks!

    Back to coffee, breakfast soonish! :)


    ...get some helium and you have the Floating Unflateable Christmas Tree.

    Did that with an unflateable Pan Am 747 I got as a promo at an airshow when I was a teenager. Looked pretty cool

    Just make sure to tie it off to something otherwise it will float up and go sideways against the ceiling

    Complaint: Thread Reminder Bots no doubt taking the holiday off (or too hungover to care).

    Non Complaint (and big news): The Workstation not only has a pulse but consciousness (installed Win7 last night) Also very pleased to see that my wireless modem works with it as well (important to register software and get the updates for Norton and SPs for Windows). The BIOS sees both HDs and GPU but Win7 only sees the C:and DVD drives. Need to load and most likely DL driver updates for the GPU. Not sure what to so about the Runtime (1TB) HD as Win7 seems to detect it as a floppy drive for some odd reason.

    In the end, all the troubles i had with getting the missing case hardware were worth it. The fans are so whisper quiet (even on the PSU) you wouldn't even know it was on unless you looked at the display or front of the case.

    ...and seeing that 12GB of RAM in the properties is sooo good.

    Well, while I have a moment, I just wanted to say: HO HO HO! MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL!!
    Yeah... thats about it... nothing mushy or filled with holiday spirit... just have fun, but not too much fun that you end up in jail... hug someone you love and if they are far away, send them your love in whatever way you find fit... even if you are alone today, remember this... even though we all here at these forums are just a bunch of silly Avatars and faceless comments, you have a bunch friends here who love ya' and wish you the best... Have a happy Holiday, Christmas, Boxing day, Crating eve, Hanukwanzimas or whatever you choose to celebrate or not celebrate... Be well and be happy!

    Now go get some eggnog... (personally I'd just have the rum...)

    Bye!

    Glad for you! I'm sure you'll get the wrinkles ironed out.

    ...yeah, a lot is just configuration stuff. Have all the install manuals for all the components so just have to sit down for a few moments and look over them. Then there is always Tom's Hardware, they have a lot of good tuts and help files there and are up 24/7.


    Small complaint: Still Fridgeless until Wednesday so have to get creative about dinner tomorrow as a lot of places will be closed for the holiday. Got an ice chest that I can keep outside the door (which fortunately cannot be seen from the street) and will just do the "European shopping thing until the new unit arrives..

    At least with the Workstation, I have something that will keep me very busy for the day. Can't wait to put all the memory woes behind me

    yayyy Snow bikini drops!

    Still working on mine... hoping to get it done before the thread ends X).

    ETA: cute penguins! X)... must be a Japanese zoo, judging by the zookeeper behind them? ;-)

    ETA: yay @ KK's new machine!... yep yep, the 64-bit world is a new and wonderful experience eh? ... my problems with LAMH (and earlier with Reality) just evaporated in 24G \(^_^)/... but, I'm still not comfortable with Win7 yet, so that's why I stick to my lowly (trusted) WinXP 4G box - masochistic, huh? <(^.^).</p>

    ETA: merry christmas y'all (^_^)/

    ...I Immediately set the UI to "Windows Classic". I heard some people experienced issues with the Aero UI so just in case went with the old 'tried & true".

    I am also wondering if I might also need a separate driver for the display as in the control panel for display settings, it is listed as "generic VGA", Got it second hand from a friend (nice widescreen one).

    (not being an expert, but...) yeah, that sounds like it might not be using the monitor's full capability. Definitely google about for an updated one. What sort of interface options does it have? (HDMI, DVI, VGA?).

    ...recognise VGA but the other two (yeah, that's how old school I am) aren't they for like TV use?

    When I turn the system on there is a small box in the top corner of the monitor that keeps changing between "VGA" and "Digital".

    (man I hate typing while downloading (DL-ing 4.5.1.6).

    Ah, right, which cables do you have? (definitely want it to settle on Digital if you can - makes it easier for the OS to identify the capabilities of the monitor (highest resolution, refresh rate etc etc)...). What brand/model monitor is it btw?

    ...at the hotspot right now DLing 4.5.1.6 (seems my texture map ills have something to do with a bug in .114). When I get home later I will check. Not sure about how to tell the difference between Analog and Digital cable types.

    ...seasonably cold here but at least dry today.

    Ended up having to DL the Genesis Essentials again for the Workstation setup as they were updated since I last installed them in the 32 bit version. Ugh, taking f-o-r-e-v-e-r even with the fast throughput at the hotspot cafe I'm at.

    ...time for another latte.
