Well I just added a DVD player to the big machine here. This machine is an HP with an expansion bay. I just borrowed one of the screws from the existing CD writer drive and put it on the lock slot in the new drive and added one screw on the other side. It then just snaps in place.
Hooked up the three cables and set it for slave on the same wire as the burner. I don't intend to burn drive to drive but off the hard drive so no problem there.
Plugged it in put in Alanna miles and let it play, very good, nice sound. And only 60 bucks Canadian.
This will let me use the DVD's we burn at work to do some playing with and let me take gigs of data home to work on on weekends instead of trying to bring it home 5 meg at a time by email.
At the same time added a second monitor to this computer, with an old 4 meg card and a 14 inch 1024 x 768 beside the 19 inch at 1280 x 1024. Looks good but I really needa better supported vid card, this one actually sucks big time but what the heck.
The other news is the my life right now is that last week Wednesday someone at work used some type of cleaner, varsol or something in our office building. What the heck? Varsol.
I was sick that afternoon and for thee rest of the week although I did go to work.
This is 5 times in 4 months (almost, actually 5 times in 4 months and 4 days.)
The wd-40, then the exterminator, the toast, the chlorine, then the varsol. I am a wreck with trying to figure out what is happening, if there is something in the building that might hurt me, always looking over my shoulder, sniffing the air like a rat. But they pay me and the product we make is probably the best thing the world needs (clean non-polluting energy) I just wish my health would let me work better.
I am planning to build a new clean room at home with no carpet, better filters, clean, sealed...
Move my computers in there and try to keep it cleaner then what I have now.
