Gawd omighty. I will never understand this thing they call a personal computer. Way over rated,nothing but a pain in the fvckin a$$. How ?,When?, Where?, Why?, How?,.....Those questions will never be answered by anyone regarding a computer. Some may think their p.c. runs just fvckin dandy,,,but I will guarantee they tip-toe around in it. It will never run the way you want it too,when you want it too.. Always something comes up never fails,,you have to admit if you do think your p.c. runs just fine for your liking,,you double think a download,,or a installation becuzz MAYBE there mite be a conflict..
The almighty F-Disk is the only way out from a bad download.That in my opinion anyways,,and when a format is done how long does it take to get it the way you were satisfied with it. Thats my point,it can never be satisfied. Someone tell me what I'm talking about, becuzz I'm fvckin fed up already.

Let me guess: The fact that you have to reboot every single time you go to windowsupdate.microsoft.com has you a bit frustrated?

My problem is getting everything to work properly again. I can't play Yahoo Crib because every time I klik it,,it says page cannot be displayed.
it's just the fact that I have something in my head that just says it's not supposed to be this fvcked up,somewhere down the line someone forgot something with the internet. Something isn't right about the whole fvckin thing.

And as NFTS Quote states: Thats just my opinion, I may be wrong.

No one has any comments ? I don't have to be told I'm crazy,,I'm already there.

I didn't have a lot of downloaded crap on my rig, I had Kazza ,,( guess thats crap)it would not uninstall,and it was eating me up for about 2 weeks. I finnally formatted last nite, Anandtech has been my home page for 8 months at least. I have yet to install anything yet, I'm going to do that on a need to use basis.
BTW,anyone know why yahoo will not load crib in it's game library?,,
I go there and kik there sorry a$$es when this crap gets to me.

I used to re-load every 4-6 months.. Then I got Windows XP Pro.. I have only re-loaded once since it come out.. (I installed an overclock utility for my GF3 and it fVcked everything).. Other than that.. rock solid..

I don't think it's amatter of me not knowing how to use my computer. It is basic,,but then it isn't.I suppose you have never ran into any probs eh! I personally think there is alot of knowledge out there,,but nothing is the exact same. Two pc's beside each other will not perform the same. If it is just knowing HOW to use a pc,,,then I think it's some of our responsibility to teach. Nothing about how people use a pc is the same. Nothing in the computer world is generalized.

WTF would you reformat?! When I need to reinstall Windows, I just boot from a floppy and delete the \Windows and \Program Files directories. I only format after I f-disk a brand-new hard drive I just installed.

So it's just a matter of knowing how to do all this. It's not Gates' fault.
