It said very clearly to not let the computer power off during the install... And the screen just went black and the damn thing turned off.

Oh wait, it's restarting, but now with a really crappy resolution. Like 400x600 or something terrible.
This sucks. Not what I wanted to do tonight. I shouldn't have scheduled this a week out, but then again, my work schedule wasn't supposed to change, either. [fail]
Irving, go to sleep.
I see you quietly shadowing this thread.... You can't hide forever!
Wow, this is way more frustrating than I first expected. Once I realized what was happening, I thought, "this won't be so bad"... Now I'm just getting angry.
And I'm all out of Crown Royal. :(
I guess I'll go on Facebook and pick a fight with the first Bernie Sanders supporter I can find.
But that might put me to sleep faster than you can say "zzzzzzZZZZZZZ"
Who are the 24 guests reading this right now??!?
IDENTIFY YOURSELVES!
Probably the NSA. And China. China definitely reads everything Americans post on the internet.
Well, the install just sped up a bunch... Now it's showing 50% complete. More updates to follow.
...computer is now making weird noises... Never heard anything like that before. That can't be good.
Halfway to a new page! Yay!
Time for a quick intermission, brb.
Still intermissing. Carry on.
Screen just went black again with no warning.
Good thing I periodically back things up right? ......right?
I think I drink way more water than the average person. Probably close to 2 gal a day.
I'm just a thirsty sonofabitch.
Especially when I'm working the night shift. I drink water to help me stay awake. Sometimes it's out of control.
But if I don't drink a lot of water, I just feel tired and dehydrated all day long. ...and that is really crappy.
Don't do it!Quote:

Ha! Too late I guess... Now it's at 91%. This is probably just a really fancy Chinese virus. Well played, China. Well played...Quote:

You can go back, you have 30 days...Quote:

Nice of you to show up just a little too late to be useful, Brutal. [Neene3]

Yeah, at least I have the "build" version of Windows 7 (I can't remember what it's actually called) that I can install as many times as I'd like.
I gotta get some shuteye. Been working 70-80 hour weeks and traveling and I'm too old for that shit on a regular basis.
Have to leave the house by 0800 to catch my flight, probably have to answer a couple work e-mails before I head out.
Holy shit... In huge advanced settings for the install, it just assumes that you would like to send "contacts, calendar details, and other associated input data to Microsoft" as well as the current location and location history of your computer. (I'm guessing that part is tailored toward mobile devices, right?)
I LOL'd. Woke up the dog.Quote:

Fuckkkkkkkkkk I fixed this really annoying port issue like 3 years ago and now it's back. Thanks Microsoft.
And my ASUS MB customization tools don't work anymore... What the fuckity fuck?
This was a terrible idea.
I need more scotch.
