Wow, I finally got the webcam up and running again. That means that I’ve been having screwed up computer stuff for almost two months. I’ve also been building a second computer out of leftover parts. I had everything except for an extra monitor to go with it and then yesterday what should I find next to the dumpster but a 17″ monitor! The gods must have been watching over me. Computer hardware can be really annoying though too. Just tonight as I was setting up my secondary system I changed the BIOS settings and then when I rebooted the computer it halted on the screen where it detects your hard drive. To add further injury, it was then impossible to enter the cmos menu to change anything. I almost started crying. It was just too much to bear. I finally gathered myself and found some information on the web about how to reset the cmos. Evidently it’s as simple as removing the cmos battery for a few minutes. I felt stupid but I was glad it was as simple as that.
Oh, I found a guy online with access to all 39 episodes of The Mysterious Cities of Gold. He has them in VCD format, but he’s going ahead and encoding them all in divx format. So, anyone that wants them come by irc and find me. I’ll let you borrow them. wink wink. I’m actually amassing quite a collection of cartoons and television shows. Just tonight I downloaded and watched GI JOE: The Movie. It was pretty weird. I hadn’t seen in it in about 10-15 years. Burgess Meredith as Globulus!
