  1. Went on a road trip to retrieve some family heirlooms; was going to be a long trip so powered down my dev machine; and then unplugged it. 

    came back, CMOS battery kia.... and the machine's BIOS lobotomized itself. *sigh* was a good machine, for a Kell, it survived two-and-a-half years with me, and that is pretty impressive. was a i7-4790 so was already retirement age when I got it.

    Replacement, replacement, replacement on it's way. Almost barebones, and to keep things within my budget, another i7-4970; this time from Hewlett-Kermin. When it arrives will pull a six-million kerbucks kermin on it - and transplant the memory, sdd's, hdd, rx550, et al to this new machine. I think I will name it Kermin.

    Will be here in about a week, *knocking on wood* that KPS (Kermin Delivery Service) doesn't loose it, or run it over like Odie, or drop kick it like glassware, or use it like a Frisbee like collectable plates....

    So far (also *knocking on wood*) no data loss. 

     

    such is a kerbal's life eh?

      Well went medieval on the dev computer.

      slapped in an optical drive with Server 2003 boot DVD and used that to put the BIOS into the Iron Maiden of Updating... went from BIOS A5 to A25 in a snap. Computer is feeling much better now.
