Yep, you got it. This company doesn't want to deal with going VMware, even though I have a lot more experience in it. I explained how it could cut down in cost. All they see, is that they'd have to spend a bunch of money on a better box to VM everything out. They don't like that.
DUDE. Cable management!Gonna be reformatting a hard drive and possibly my main drive. Spring cleaning. You should see the mess of wires I have. Damn power supply.

I'm seriously debating painting my VC, but I eventually want to swap (later this year, probably summer), so I feel it'll be a waste. Hell, I'm even debating replacing my leaky rear main seal. Waste of time, money and effort if I'm just gonna swap everything haha.
I know lol. i need to buy cable ties. Most of those cables are unneeded, but my powersupply has like a billion connectors. I wanna redo the whole computer, because my tower has a front door with gauges, and i don't use the gauges, so I want to eliminate the door and extra wires.
I havent seen an IDE hard drive in years lol, its like having an old NES but not as cool.
Yeah lol. My dad's free SATA drives are all like 60GB and below. He has two terabyte drives and a 500GB in the main computer, adn the second terabyte is empty, so Idk why he won't let me at least have the 500gb. -_-
I built my computer about years ago. I went cheap cause it was for my parents. All they did was browse the web. They bought a new computer last year around the same time my laptop took a s**t. They gave me the computer I built for them.
I'm in the market for a new computer. I don't play games on my computer. I just develop stuff for android. I'm debating if I should build a new one or just buy one. What I do know is I want at least an i3 with 6gb ram and an ssd hd. Ideally I would love to have an i7 16gb ram. The problem is my pockets ain't fat.

I just built for the future, I initally only had one graphics card but then some of the newer games came out and I wanted a little more power so I just added another. I dont want to have to upgrade all the time so I build one massive PC.
I haven't built a computer in years. I might sometime down the line, once I can throw the money at it. I don't have a real reason, though. My Macbook does fine for me right now. I don't game anymore (Xbox and PS3 for that, if I want to), I don't do 3D modeling or anything.. I do web/graphic design, but don't need an insane rig for that. About the only thing I could see myself shelling out cash for an i7 machine for is video editing..
I was, originally. My first build as an AMD x64 Athlon. Now, I just don't give a s**t haha.
I know a i3 will compile source code just fine n that's all I really need. I compile source code on my current machine but it takes for ever if it don't error out. The i7 will compile what's taken me hours in a half hour if the build environment Is set up right. I just want to be spoiled.

Getting really pissed off right now. Burned my windows 7 disc using Infra recorder which I've always had success doing in the past, and got an error trying to install windows. Ugh. And I can't find my other 7 disk. Probably gonna have to hop on Ubuntu for a bit till I sort s**t out.

This. Could also be a bad HDD.
I won't know unless I know the error. Could be he forgot to make the CD bootable, missing DLLs etc etc.

Well, the first disk was my freshly burned dvd using InfraRecorder at 6x speed, and I got an error that I can't remember now. The second disk, was my OLD windows 7 disk and threw a dvd driver missing error. HDD should be good, it worked fine before I got my new motherboard and couldn't run it anymore. It's IDE, so I had to minus a DVD drive to put it in, but it's the biggest drive I have. I'm wipining it completely clean with terminal on ubuntu right now. I'll try my new disk again and see what's up. I'll take a picture of the screen when I do it.

My god this will take all night...
