Update on the Laptop: Turned out it was indeed the CMOS battery. Unfortunately, it's a gateway, so I had to order a proprietary one. Still, it works! And works pretty good; might just keep this and fix it up. Only $37 to upgrade the RAM to the full 4GB.

Had an old laptop that wouldn't work. I put it on ebay and it sold as is for the horrendous price of $3.86, but the winner didn't pay (I have a 12 hour rule on payment) so I cancelled the order. I randomly decided to plug it in just now.and randomness be damned, it's charging! :o I'll see if the charge holds and try to set up an OS on it.

Well, back to the drawing board. It turns on but nothing comes on the screen. Not even a BIOS.
-
CMOS Battery? When the battery is dead, it cannot keep the BIOS settings and may result in not booting up. Just a thought.
-
That could be it. I have a bunch of those in the house so I'll rip her apart again and see if that can be replaced.

I feel like remodeling some towns. If I posted some custom lots for Sunlit Tides (Is that the name.the Superstar world)would anyone like them?

Worst case, I was thinking I'll just make the lots as best as I can and apologetically let people CASt them as they like.
-
FYI: Showtime World is Starlight Shores. Sunlit Tides is the more of a tropical island world. Both are in desperate need of lots though. I'd be interested and also willing to CASt them myself. I like coloring, I don't like building and decorating. Haha
-
Dangit, Yes, I met Starlight Shores. I get those confused too often. XD
Well, in that case, I can at least start on the buildings. I'm still going to try to repair the CASt issue.

Kraven Labinos managed to scoop up Madeline, the professor from the University, as his wife. Well done, soldier. Now make babies for this legacy!

Congratulations! :D

Oooh sweet!

Yep, I've installed 2 (Ultimate collection that was a free thing on Origin a while ago), and I'm working on Sims 3. I want to buy the few expansion packs I'm missing, but.might find them on sale in town.
I noticed Sims 4 is pretty reasonable on Origin right now, but I'm still not sure I want to go for it.

Hello, I'm not dead or anything, all. Just not simming too much due to computer limitations.

Cohzaku! *tackle hug* So good to see you!
-
Hope it gets better soon!!! :D
-
Nice to see you, and I understand not simming much mine is due to time limitations.

Just as a general heads up, some troll (or trolls) from a Doctor Who website have become really petty and started digging up my personal information. I don't use this screen name there, but just in case, if anything odd or bad happens related to me here, just giving a heads up so the Ban hammer can be enforced.

Poor pool boys! Be gentle, please, we still need them! --and they may like it. ;)

I don't know. Those pool boys have to be pretty tough to survive around here, I am sure they will manage. >.<

Wow that's a great find!
-
it fell through. Condition was too poor to justify cost. By the time I'd repaired it properly I may as well have bought a new one.
-
we're checking on two of the big petstore chains in the States, Petco and Petsmart. they frequently have $1 per gallon sales, which means I could get the same size or bigger PLUS some fish and animals for a little more than this tank, and way less than the tank would be at Walmart (149)

If there is ONE thing I like about ten.subracting all his errors as the Doctor.it's how in love he was with the aliens. "Oh you are lovely".even though RTD ruined many things.he always allowed the Doctor his moments of utter.appreciation over his fellow non-earthlings.

So, Samsung refuses to fix the phone because they say the entire thing is water damaged, when all I sent it in for was a broken speaker. (otherwise functioned like a dream). Luckily, my $70 is being refunded and I found a replacement part for $7.

I've been field testing my SSD for long enough.time to start re-installing the Sims 3.you know, I just realised what sort of fresh hell I'll be in for re-installing CC.

Been offline because of a major computer overhaul. New Case (Just set that up) and a new SSD coming in the mail. Juding by some issues a new motherboard might also be in the running -sigh- Well, I still have a spare audio card laying around somewhere. but the modem cable socket thingie doesn't seem to be working since I re-installed Windows 8.dunno, fiddling with it some more.
-
So, after solving everything.a simple restart made my computer go batshit again. (Youtube breaks the internet, various programmes get so buggy I have to reinstall).I'm considering just reformatting and re-installing Windows 8 from scratch. Ultimately, the best option would be to get that bloody solid state drive, but money.ugh.computers.
-
So now, almost none of my programmes want to work since that power outage.contemplating just re-installing the OS from scratch.
-
averted a massive heart attack. Power outage last night, and my screen resolution was wonky when I turned my computer on. It seemed like my Graphics card was totally dead! Fortunately I downloaded updated drivers and it's all working again.
