Is such a..
Troublesome production of technology..
Developed by humankind's intelligence..
Yet essential..
Well..
It's my life..
And it screwed my wallet big time..
*****************************
"So what makes my computer so lag?"
"It's probably because of your startup, too many programmes"
"Oh is it.. I see.. Teach me how to reach startup, I'm gonna delete some programme"
"NO! I'm not going to tell you what to delete or else your pc might not be able to start"
"Bah.. Just tell me how to reach it I know what stuff to get rid of"
"Ok.. So.. U go to run and type "msconfig"........"
And so, Gracie unticked some UNIMPORTANT programmes out of all those ticked and non-comprehensive programmes, ym, msn, emule, aim were unticked.
Gracie felt satisfied.. =D
BIG SMILE!
"You need to reboot, you know right?"
"Ya.. It pops up.. So Dom thx ya see you later after I reboot"
"K see ya"
"Restart" clicked..
DING DING DING DING~~
The monitor colours started to fade and in process to reboot, Gracie waited impatiently for the faster starting of Window..
Ok.. Everything was fine... Window was running and EEEEEEEEEHhhhhhh!!
WTF?!?!?!
Unable to enter Window!?!?
Ok, I'm screwed..
After countless of attempts, my hope started to fade off.. Did I untick startup programme? o.O I don't think so..
Bow Chika WOW WOW~
So Gracie picked her phone and called her beloved cousin..
"Emm.. I'm screwed.."
Well, I still remember his devilish laughter.. What a cousin T_T
Ok, save all those conversation we had on how to fix my baby pc, the only thing that went across my mind was to send her to the shop for repair, ASAP..
I told cha, computer is my life..
Now comes the best part..
When I thought the reason that made my pc unable to start was because of my stupid idea and itchy hand that deleted important startup programme, the very awkward moment of Gracie was carried out in Ixora Pc Shop.
"Emm.. I think I've deleted some start-up programme accidentally.. Can you retrieve the data for me?"Gracie put her CPU on the glass surface.
"Ok, let me check it."
So the technician got my pc to the desk, fixed some cable thingy.. My baby started to run and I expected it got black out when Window is running..
But..
It didnt..
"EEEEERRRRRR..... So... What's the problem?"
I looked into the confused eyes of the technician.. I felt blood oozing up to my very brain..
"But.. But.. I've tried so many times last night but it just won't get alive!!" I tried to defend.
"I think your fan got tangled by the wire, 'cause it's bit noisy so I open up the case.."
Ok, now I remembered.. I took out the RAM to check whether it was DDR or DDR2.. I screwed myself.. I messed up with the cables in the CPU..
So let me get it clear, I was the one whose hand got itchy and got the fan tangled with cables.. I was the one who made my baby died for one whole night..
"BAH.. Format the C Drive for me then.. WAIT! Let me transfer stuff.."
Don't expect me to bring back the CPU just like that.. It was super duper embarrased.. I might as well let them earn some money for the sake of bringing my baby back to life..
Ok... Actually it wasn't dead..
Finally, PC formatted, BIG SMILE for Gracie.. But story wasn't ended..
This was happened last week, before I went back for my Family Day..
P.S RM30 spent
*******************
This day, Gracie finally reached her warm and comfy apartment and expected to see her beloved homies with big smile and thier bear hugs. Too bad, they went out..
So, Gracie headed to her room and turn on her baby PC, first thing to do, YAY~
For your information, I did turn it off for the past 6 days when I was at hometown..
Since it got a bit rebellious after mommy sent her for stomach cleaning, it got overheat very easily..
I had to open up the case and get my aircooler blew towards it..
If not it would restart every half an hour while I was playing RO..
That day, I thought she would be very obedient for not seeing mommy for six days, I let my aircooler had a day off.
Aircooler was happy =D
I got my baby turned on, checked my friendster, hotmail, blogspot and etc.. Then my RO..
While I was hunting stuff, my baby got rebellious again and reboot by itself..
Oh gosh not again!
As usual, I opened up the case and swtiched on my aircooler. Main switch was off, waited.. Waited.. Ok should be ok now so I on my PC.
Button pressed..
Monitor was on, but the light at the CPU wasn't lit..
Come on baby~ You won't want mommy to spend another fifty bucks on you..
Ok, it was on strike..
I off the main switch again once I waited.. 10 seconds afterward I on the switch and guess what?
There was a LOUD explosive sound coming right from my baby's butt, bright sparkle and thick, black smoke..
And my the lamp kinda blinked..
WOOT~~ Bow chika WOW WOW~~
T______________________T
Shoot me please...
Power supply exploded..
Repair costed Gracie another RM43..
And the socket was spoilt..
I am actually typing my blog with my monitor on chair and my butt on ground right now..
Stupid Ixora Apartment voltage.. I would never forget the sparkles..
