Crap..
 

I may be offline for awhile, A big storm rolled thru here over the weekend and it fried my modem :mad:. If i can get a ride to wal-mart ill try to get a new one, i dont know the extent of the damage but i think it may have gotton 1 or 2 of my pci slots to. The computer still runs but the modem is blacken over. :(.

Just how i wanted to spend $38 bucks ><

that bites dude
my friend pc got a lighting serge
and fused his videocard to the agp slot, killed every thing onboard (not keyboard tho)
so he picked up a pci vid card & a few lava cards and his pc is working like new

I have a safety switch, so my power goes off when any sort of surge occurs. This comp shall never get fried. (Although I want it to ;))

Well after 3 hours of sodering and many many smokes i know have a working modem again, the things i do to save money.

Hmm, saving money is difficult for me. I'd rather spend, who wouldn't? :p

When you have a job you'll think of it the other way around ;) but who am i to talk? i just paid $300 for one of these:

I'll probably get one next year, I need that extra money. :)

I dont mean to sound like a total newbie but what the hell is that ? >.<
