My computer died :(

[toant103]

my computer is a scsi raid base with 64 MB cache. (Adaptec). Yesterday, the cache memory crapped out. Now i can't do anything to get it to boot but wait for new cache memory.

Using my 128MB K6-2 450 with 4GB right now.

I want my pc back.

dam man that sucks.....

did you have to pay for the cache memory and how much was it?

At least you didn't have to replace anything else major....

SCSI was good but it was his adapatec card that bailed on him......

hahaha, that's really going to help me now.


I have IDE raid on my system also but IDE are only for storage. I have 3 80GB 5400 rpm so it's not going to be that fast. Cache memory coming on Monday.

I have a paper due on the 25th too. 15 pages.
Not that much time to work it. Oh well.
