choronekoday before yesterday: wake up. get up. walk over to computer, turn on monitor - no signal. what???? check wires. wiggle wires. turn computer off and back on. nothing. dig through mess of other wires to find old vga cable. plug in the tv. nothing. /gives up and just uses laptop for the day.
yesterday: get a hold of friend who is good with comps, tells him what happened. go over what i've already done. oh, i'm supposed to plug the tv in before turning comp on. ok, tries. HELLO WHACKY MESS OF MULTICOLORED LINES THAT MAKES ME THINK OF FLANNEL SHIRTS. confirmed: video card is DEAD. friend lets me know, back when he was staying with us and swapped computer parts around, there was a spare older video card left in an unused computer case. ta-daaaaaaaaaaaaa --oh damn i need the right kind of screwdriver. daaaaaaaaaad.............. /waits til friggin' 7pm for dad to come home and help find the screwdriver. /swap cards. STILL NO SIGNAL. tv? not even any funky lines, just NO SIGNAL. old video card: also dead
SCREAM.
then it hits me: what about the motherboard's onboard video card?
i don't get around to checking til now, this morning
welp, the onboard one works fine
except........... any resolution higher than 800x600 is laggy/screwed up
holy crap everything's so large i don't even
so yeah it's like '98 has whacked me in the face now.
ehhh at least i can get to windows and access my files. :/
