So, after my shiitty news yesterday, and my general hell of a life lately...
MY DAD FINALLY REPLACED MY MOTHERBOARD TODAY. O.O HELLZ YES BABY.
There were a few hiccups {namely the screw we lost somewhere in the bowels of my computer...o.o and the trials and tribulations of connecting to the wireless}, but overall it went surprisingly smoothly. I'm absolutely ecstatic over having 1.} A USB PORT THAT DOESN'T WIGGLE AND ACTUALLY *GASP* WORKS!!! 2.}A video card that's DOUBLE the size of my old one, and 3.}A NON EMO SOUND CARD THAT ACTUALLY FULLY WORKS!!!
And my computer is running AMAZINGLY FAST. Guess not having Windows Messenger, AIM, and Winamp Remote running has helped with the processor. And now I'm about to put my new NVIDIA through its paces and see how fast I can load Bleach on Veoh...which has been notoriously slow lately.
Aaaand step 1 of the computer revamp is over. Step 2...will hopefully get done tomorrow, and I'll have a whopping 80 gig hard drive!!
