I really hate computer hardware. My PC started to randomly freeze every so often a month of two ago. It’s been totally out of action for a few weeks now and I’ve finally gotten around to trying to get it up and running again. After replacing the motherboard, RAM and CPU I can boot linux again and it seems stable if lacking a lot of features. It doesn’t seem to have support the ethernet card, sound card and has some issues with the hard drive controller. Windows on the other hand blue screens on startup – even in safe mode. I’m now trying to backup all the document from the windows hard drive to the linux hard drive and there’s this awful clicking noise. Somehow I think I’ll be replacing the hard drive too. Sigh.
