After 2 months with on-board, I finally got a new video card

Post by {Nathan} »

I finally got a new video card for my PC, as two months ago my old one fryed. A good ol' GeForce 5500GT it was, with 128 megabytes of memory. Not great, but free.

Then, as I was plugging in my MP3 player in the USB port, around my surge protecter, my elbow bumped the switch just enough for it to turn off then on.

In the process, my card fryed.

So, I switched to on-board graphics (rendering my PC useless, my laptop could then do everything it could because of the recent RAM upgrade) until today, when I got my new video card!

A fork nvidia TNT2.

Useless.

I hate having no money and being too young to get a summer job...
