Exuberance revisited

[BEGIN TRANSMISSION]

While the memory and modem have been bought, sent, received, installed, and are functioning properly, the idea of having more a total number of hard drives greater than the number of two in the same computer is becomeing more complicated than I thought it would be.

The real issue is that, for whatever reason, the IDE two channel card that I got nearly two years ago now will not function as it should and will instead mess with every other hard drive on the system. It would be humorous how it destroyed an 80 Gig that was slaved on the normal IDE channel 0 on the mother board if it had happened to someone else, like a customer or the people who designed it.

And after getting the hard drive back from Western Digital, it happened again, to the same hard drive, this time on a channel off the card it self. Maybe my computer does not like seeing two identical hard drives together or maybe it just does not like me. Either way, it's headed to a reformating as soon as I can spare the time.

Also, beware the software that comes with Logitech mice (mouses when referred to comptuer mouse?). After installing the software, I was not able to use the scroll wheel and when I tried to uninstall the drivers (both automatically and throught the system32 folder), they only kept reinstalling themselves.

Jedi Master Milbrodt, out.
