If it makes you feel any better - when I was 8 I caught the stomach flu on the drive down to Disney World (18 hours into the 24 hour trip driving. We had to make an unscheduled stop and stay at a hotel in Georgia because of it) and I was sick the first whole day there. My dad then got the same thing and was miserable and horribly sick for the first 3 days there out of the 7 we stayed. Mom got stuck lugging around an 11, 8 and 3 year old on her own those first few days.....oh what a joyous time that was!

Although, I think it was karma getting back at him. Because we stopped at a restaurant for lunch that day before I got sick and as I was carrying my tray to the table to sit down, my dad accidentally bumped me and it caused me to tip the trap and my cup of soda slid off and spilled all over the table. My dad (the joker that he is) looked at me and said, "Aaron, what did you do?". Me only being 8 and already embarrassed about spilling my drink all over the table, started crying and the people sitting around us that saw what happened got mad at my dad for his comment. My dad got this look of horror on his face when people around started to jeer and boo him and with me crying...he said, "No! I'm only kidding. It wasn't your fault. I bumped you and caused the spill. I'm so sorry."

The joys of family vacations and what you remember.

My dad still blames me to this day for getting him sick on that trip....I just like to think of it as karma biting him in the ass.

Wow, that's no joke. A few days at Disney can be tough, let alone a week, especially if you're coming from afar (man, a 24hr trip :eek:

). Hopefully Mickey made up for it once you felt better!

Im expecting the pump saturday, or monday. The ssd has arrived, so next week ill likely hammer this puppy out.just need to route water, and mount ssd,and pump.

Sweet

Going straight distilled right? I've found that to work out the most easily. While dyes and coolants look cool, just so much headache and upkeep.

until your post..i WAS going straight piss...but you've swayed me , and I think instead of DRINKING the distilled water...I'll directly use it in its Original form for optimal cooling

yeah i always use Distilled. Ive cleaned my share of Blue, and Red coloring out of enough RAD's that I know better...plus with these copper Rad's no disinfectant needed either.

btw, glad to hear Your feeling beter.

manofthem · Apr 9, 2016

OK OK, I caved... (and hopefully in time)

@manofthem
In for the Cougar Attack mech keyboard because I love keyboards!

My wife is using a cheap $12 keyboard from staples, horrible junk, so this will be a nice replacement for her.

And spring time...

I live spring time because it means that the little cold weather we had for those few days is gone for good, and miserable hot and humid weather is coming with a vengeance!

But Spring time is a lot of fun too because it means pool time for the kids, barbeques with steaks, mojitos, and all those goodies.

It's all good. :laugh:

the one she has still works and types. Personally, after using mechs for a good while, I don't think I could ever go back to a membrane. I've been spoiled

iirc @Norton is going to draw the winning name this afternoon..

MY nephew see's my PC, and it just makes going back to his ALL the worse

He now has an optiplex, but when he started living with me, he had this old Pentium 4 build, with No side panel, and a heatsink attached by Gravity O_O (he layed it on its side) . He made it out of an old PC i got from M.I.T a few years back, and I just HAD to get him a newer one, but the SFF case is proving to be a problem now that he has started to do creation work, and recording ,etc on the Machine..So I told him to cross his fingers.

does the bios have a legacy mode for USB devices ? also are you installing in UEFI Mode from GPT formated media ?
windows 7 doesn't not support usb 3.0 during install you need to use the 2.0 ports

I would also turn the UEFI usb support stuff off and just leave the legacy stuff enabled e.g no extra uefi drivers just minimal usb support
the bios should have options for EHCI/XHCI drivers for "uefi" you want those off
