Please step away from the computer
August 17th, 2007Me and my computers don’t appear to be on very good terms. First I get home from Mid-Ohio to find my file server turned off. It’s power supply, dead. So I grab my last power supply I have not in use here, and throw it in the box. I boot and I am missing some drives, I figure “crap Ive lost my data.” Well it was that the cable came loose when I was changing power supplies. Get that fixed. Then because of this heat, it keeps shutting down. If it lasts all day its amazing. I may try a bigger heat sink on the processor but they are 3 times as loud as it is now and that sucks. I also may move the network around this weekend and put it here in the living room where I am never at. Last night I also noticed my F drive was gone. It doesnt show up in the bios any more :(. So I lost a little data, nothing important tho. Ill work on that later tonight. If I figure right, thats my oldest drive at somewhere near 10 years old. I guess thats not horrible…. Ok now on to work, we are starting our every other weekend off again this week. So its my week to work, sadly.
