Aww son of a...

Let's just say that technology is a bitch to me lately. In fact, I don't even know why I keep on trying to make this damn PC working... I guess it's like trying to start your car in the winter. You keep on turning that key, and the car will keep on making those sounds as if it's choking on it's own fuel. I mean, whenever I start that crackbox up, I know damn well that within a matter of minutes the thing will completely lock up on me.

Hell, it isn't just that. Last time, I told the guy who usually repairs my computers(this would be the fifth time) to use some space of the D:/ drive, to enlarge the C:/ drive. And so he did. I made the stupid mistake of putting a shitload of documents and files on that C:/ drive. Which will most likely be emptied again, knowing the situation is FUBAR.

Last three times I salvaged everything by simply dumping it on USB's and on the large D:/ drive, which is basically a build-in USB drive.

I've gotten a shitload of errors thus far. And every blue screen gives me a new random selection of error codes. The most common one being 0x000000F4. And after scavenging through the support.microsoft databases, I discovered it's an error that will most likely occur if you multi-task on Vista with a Dual-Core/Quad-Core equipped.

Funny thing being that having a Quad-Core should fix the entire crowd-control issue, right? Turns out that in Vista it can effectivly kill your software. Nontheless, it's a error that is fixed in the first service pack. Gee, what a suprise. I'm still running tests for Microsoft here. From what I know, I got Vista SP1. Infact, I HAVE SP1.

Oh what a joy. But I guess that problem should be resolved by monday, I'm sending the wretched box of bolts back to that guy. He can have a blast installing Vista for the fourth time. Fuckin' cheater tries to make me pay for XP. All that I require is him using the Vista CD to 'repair' the current issues. So he won't charge me for that. Thing being; I'm done with Vista. It's crap. Done.

Sure, it's a wonderfull operating system if the only thing you do is type, roam the internet and download pornographic material. But for gaming, and "tougher" stuff like game editors, Photoshop, 3D Studio Max and that stuff - You're better off getting XP and download them flashy Vista themes.

Honestly, it isn't this bad that I'm willing to pay fifty bucks to go four years back in time with XP. But it's a big, fucking hassle.

But, putting my bitching aside...

I started playing Call of Duty 4 again. And Lord, for I have sinned. That game holds a record for broken controllers. Heck, once I broke the controller, and was still pissed enough to send the game case of CoD4 flying after it. It's a frustrating game. Beyond imagination.

It's that when I play with friends, I can keep a hold of myself. Okay, I pushed certain limits when I insulted this Brit who was actually thinking he did a good impression of a "hoodrat" from Inglewood, L.A. Calling him 'black boy' was outta line, but Y'know, if I'm a 'cracker' according to this Welsh prick, I've got all rights to shut him the hell up with his own weapons, right?

Played a bunch of games with Player1, JamesF, and EpicSteve... Eventually somewhat later a few games with MsCortana. Speaking of which, I seriously hate Team Hardcore on Call of Duty 4. Y'know the phrase "Scares you shitless"?

There was this one time that I blew a teammates face off with a shotgun, cause he jumped up the stairs behind me. The other time I shot a teamie in the skull with a Desert Eagle because he ran towards me all o' the sudden.

But, in all seriousness. This game frustrates the hell outta me. For one reason, specifically. I'm the most typical run-and-gun kinda guy. Heck, it's how I got the golden paint for the M1014 shotgun. Charge, kill, die. What turns me into the controllers' worst enemy? The fact that atleast two will go and snipe. On our team, and theirs. Any map, any circumstance. A sniper will appear.

Now, I don't hate snipers with a passion in Call of Duty. I hate snipers with a passion in Battlefield Bad Company. How is anyone supposed to survive when a sniper is taking potshots on everyone, and taking out the biggest fuckin' tanks with his little laser-designator?

CoD4 atleast gives us a fair chance at taking his sorry ass out. But, I need to get pretty close. Using buildings and such to my advantage. Sure, I can still take on a M16A4 and live. But snipers ALWAYS get me. Why? It's that wretched combo of M40A1 and it's damage increasing perks. Leg, arm, skull - Always instant death.

Anyway... This blog is reaching quite the length, and my PC's going insane as I'm typing... So, adios.
