Oh Folly...

I installed Windows 7 yesterday, and boy are my arms tired. Install went fine, with the exception of a couple things not working right out of the box. SRS sound card didn't want to work, but I got that fixed with a driver install, after much searching I might add. The Nvidia graphics card is another issue. Does not want to work at all. Won't accept the proper drivers, and when it finally does, it's being fickle...sometimes the driver will take, sometimes the same driver won't take, Windows tells me something is wrong with it and shuts it down. I'm sure it will get worked out, but it's super frustrating and while this isn't working, I can't play one of my games, which is the reason I bought this computer in the first place.

I thought I was doing the right thing by waiting 2 months to install Win7. They would have time to get the bugs worked out, drivers working and all that shit. For the most part, it all worked, but that one thing, is ruining the whole experience. So here is a picture of something interested to make me feel better.
