My temper has been raped.

nomadicfollower · 07.24.2006, 05:50 PM

Wow, that really sucks. I feel for 'ya man.

Hip Priest · 07.24.2006, 05:51 PM

You have my absolute sympathy. I have to admit that I worry about that kind of thing happening to me.

!@#$%! · 07.24.2006, 05:58 PM

what the fuck man. you've been trolling the internet with no firewall and no antivirus? ouch.

i would say "you asked for it" though that would make me an unfeeling asshole. ha ha maybe i am. but be more careful next time?

i hope that you didn't have any credit card or private information stored there however. that would be the real tragedy. tasteful porn can always be recovered. but identity theft is a bit of a bitch to handle...

well best wishes. if i can help let me know.

Danny Himself · 07.24.2006, 06:02 PM

Blue screen. Over and over.

Toilet & Bowels · 07.24.2006, 06:03 PM

why did you want tasteful porn? is it even porn if it's tasteful?

!@#$%! · 07.24.2006, 06:04 PM

yo, BSOD might be not a virus but a memory error or a busted cap on the motherboard. or maybe some fucked up BIOS settings. or a destroyed hard drive that fucked up the OS.

does your machine POST at all? i mean when you hit the setup key (F1, whatever) do you get BIOS info at least? or nada?

Danny Himself · 07.24.2006, 06:07 PM

Yeah, I've tried my best in safe mode and stuff, but nothing seems to work.

Cantankerous · 07.24.2006, 06:08 PM

don't get NAV. NAV = biggest bloat ever.

!@#$%! · 07.24.2006, 06:12 PM

not safe mode but the BIOS, the most basic fucking level of operation on the machine, which you can view as the "setup screen". if you don't get that, you might have fucked up memory or motherboard, nothing to do with the drive or windows itself.

what im trying to suggest is a process of elimination that lets you spot the location of the fuckup. could be any number of things... even the graphics card.

do you know how to open up your box & get into the guts of the machine? do you have an antistatic wristband/mat? with that you could unplug everything & do a physical check... but if you don't know how, you could fuck it up even worse.

schizophrenicroom · 07.24.2006, 06:13 PM

that sucks

that happened to me about two years ago during the hurricanes we had.

!@#$%! · 07.24.2006, 06:17 PM

that schizo dear was due probably to a power brownout that fucked up some kind of component. if you live in florida your machine should have a battery backup. not a huge one to run forever, just something to stabilize the voltage & keep you protected. you dont have to spend a fortune on it or buy the latest model. i've had good luck with these guys: http://www.refurbups.com/

So here I am, downgraded to a shitty laptop with a 6-year out of date version of windows on it. Bummer.

you meen all porno ,oh fuch thats fucking bad , I'm sorry man

Danny Himself · 07.24.2006, 06:38 PM

Meh, fuck a new PC. I'm kinda used to Windows ME now anyway..

!@#$%! · 07.24.2006, 06:56 PM

winME is complete shit man-- the worst OS ever. i'd do 98 SE if i had to stick to an old system, but XP PRO (not XP home) is the best OS ever to run on a PC-- solid as fuck, very secure, blah blah blah. i'd install it.

anyway if your machine runs winME it might be quite old-- about 7 years? time to upgrade perhaps... new components for such an old machine might not be worth the effort (if you can get a new motherboard for a p3, that is...).

sorry man. maybe in a new machine you'll be able to hook up your old drive & recover your tittyshots.

Danny Himself · 07.24.2006, 06:58 PM

Nah, I meant the laptop is on ME. My PC had XP pro.

And perhaps. I was joking about the porn anyway- I had some quite treasured pictures from memories new and old on that computer.

!@#$%! · 07.24.2006, 07:02 PM

oh... well you might try repair man. seriously. if your machine POSTs (see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power-on_self-test ) then there is hope that it could be fixed.

how come everyone knows how to change a tire or change the car oil or even do a tune-up but nobody knows how to open their machine's guts?

if you are a total newbie then i suggest getting a computer techician or at least a geeky friend to look at it. anyway i gotta go but best wishes with your repairs...

Danny Himself · 07.24.2006, 07:29 PM

Thanks, man. If I could rep you, I would.

HaydenAsche · 07.24.2006, 08:14 PM

Damn. This happened to a friends computer about a week ago. My friend and I are going to try and fix it tomorrow.
