Well, I have just spent the past 5 hours of my life trying to salvage my junk heap of a computer.
I had been having trouble with windows 2000 and half-life, so of course I was all for reinstalling win 98SE in order to play it. Then I found out that I would need to reformat my hard drive in order to DOWNgrade my operating system. I was ready to do it, so I had a friend of mine wrestle with my machine (my floppy drive doesn't work anymore so we couldn't use a boot disk) And he finally tricked windows 2000 into formatting my drive. So, starting with a clean hard drive, I proceeded to install win98. When I got around to installing my ethernet card and setting up my internet, I noticed that windows would crash everytime I opened IE.
So, it was back to the drawing board. I decided once and for all to go to 2k and stick with it. If nothing else, it ran smoother than 98 ever did, so that is where I am now.
I am slowly but surely setting my stuff up, and I believe that I am gonna take a break from TFC until next week. You see, I have been in the process of applying for major this past month (industrial Design) and it is due on monday the 11th. Also, I have an Anthropology midterm on wednesday, a Statistics midterm on monday, and a Persian Mythology midterm on Tuesday. I think a week with no TFC is worth a spot in my major, and some good grades in my classes.

Lol, maybe you should stop playing TFC for a month, and see how our grades look then?
Just a suggestion

TFC ? Roof, they barely had computers when you went to school. And personal gaming computers ??? NO WAY... I'll bet you played pong for hours on end though |

Roof and Dad, what would you both have known about computers when you were in school??
I thought they were just inventing the steam engine when the both of you went to school.
