Motherfucking son of a bitch (A rant about computers)
Sooo, my computer, it's about a year old now.
It should not suck this much. Really it shouldn't.
Early-mid Octoberish, it starts having issues, which cause Windows not to load right, maybe once every five times. Unfortunately, it was unfixable, which forced me to repair the install.
Eventually I had to do this every time. And then it only worked to get me into safe mode..luckily I got all my files onto my USB HD and all was well. I reformatted, everything was spiffarific.
It started doing it again this month. Fucking thing
But that's not all, oh no.
Today, I installed my DVD burner. That went well enough.
But the damn thing decided IT was the master drive, even though the drivers weren't installed, thus fucking shit up. Even better, it wouldn't recognize my CD drive. I shut down, make the DVD slave, CD master (they were on auto select) and reboot.
WINDOWS DOES NOT START
Now, I have to repair install. With a CD drive not recognized and a DVD drive not installed.
Squirm told me my HD is probably failing.
ON A YEAR OLD MACHINE
MOTHERFUCKING SONS OF BITCHES!
I need help. Im on the line with Dell, who will be next to useless. Diesel, Lance, anyone else tech minded..help Coren out.

It's Dell? Maybe. Act as pissed off as you are, without being an asshole, and you should be able to get them to give you something to compensate... a discount at least. Because it's not like the shit costs them that much too make. It can't hurt to try. Just act bitchy... get your mom to make the call if you can. Angry middle-aged women can get shit done.
