so, my internet gets restarted this am; call comcast, get to the point where i have to restart my computer---both my batteries are dead; computer says the adapter isnt strong enough and i need a 130 W one; so i cant turn my computer on

so, i call my mom, and she says she has a extra on; i go hom (live 40 min away), its not compatible with my computer; call best buy, staples. etc none have a 130 W, only 90 W; finally after callin dell like 3x (i have an xpsM1710), my motherboard crashed, and a new one will be here monday

to top it off, my spacebar was jammed so the guy will have to put that on and the keyboard is crooked, but the keys are fine---its weird

so, i took my lil bros computer, its like 10 yrs old, but my cousin updated it, so its works fine; except the l, backspace, and d buttons u have to push with a pencil

not that bad, since i bought the 3 yr warranty so the new motherboard is free, its just a huge inconvience, cuz now someone has to come install it; so if my grammar is bad, its cuz i didnt feel like usin a pencil to type some letters

luckily i dont have any classes that i need my computer for until wed

When are you gonna get all that stuff back?

Looks like you and Hines can hang out now and talk via Netscape Navigator, haha.

ur moms going to install your mother board.

Call dell call them a bunch of homos and then tell them to send a tech guy down to take care of it. They have those guys that come to your house its under waranty so it free they just don't tell anyone.

Is it your motherboard or your power supply too? You mentioned something about what I thought is power supply.

ive still been having problems with my wireless internet after our HD crashed. We got the new HD, went to set up the internet through my router and it doesn't work. We even switched ISP's (from Zoomtown to Roadrunner) and it still doesn't work. Guy said I'm gonna have to get a new Router probably. **** sucks but this new internet is really fast thus far. I havent played XBOX live in like 2 weeks. ARGH!
