Well, I'm back.... finnaly. But its not the way I expected... :\

Our new computer was ordered, but not having a computer kinda sucked. I mean, I can only read WOT so many times, and I cant find Lord of the Flies. :\

So, by the time I finished Animal Farm, my mom (only cause I didn't want to do it myself.) worked on the computer for about 6 hours straight, then agian for four hours the next day, and finnaly our computer works!!

But... uh... it doesnt. [img]graemlins/1ponder.gif[/img]

She managed to bypass the wasted drivers (mainly the vido card) by turning them off. Which was no easy task, let me tell you. First she had to get past the lock-ups, and blue screens of death, after reconfiguring the damn thing. :\

Not to mention that I'm not good with computers, and neither is she.

So now it works, but I don't have a vido card! [img]smile.gif[/img] So I'm in 16 bit color, with the lowest resolution possible. So as you can guess, I can barely read the posts. [img]tongue.gif[/img] [img]tongue.gif[/img]

So now that I'm back I must ask....

What did I miss?

I know something did, cause I always seem to miss the exciting stuff when I'm not around. :\

I think Kaltia got married.... I added a new chapter to my story, I posted a personal poll, and Cloudy announced that only she can post the Cafes. If she is away, Lady Blue and Lioness can post them. That's about it, I guess.

If neither of them knows much about computers, there`s a chance they uninstaller is foreign to them. And besides that, in some OSs now (Mac OSX and Win XP come to mind...), the basic drivers are a system file, and can`t be removed if you want your computer to work.
