    My computer is a retard.

    I need to rant, explain how much of a retard my computer is.

    First of all, the screenshot. Most of time when my computer starts up all images are just replaced with red. "Reply" buttons and those things on forums are reduced to a single red dot. ONE FREAKIN PIXEL! Do you have any idea how hard it is to respond when you have to click on one pixel and they are put together to form a tiny horizontal line? (Don't tell me to use Firefox or some other browser, I've tried them all and it the problem exists on EVERY browser.)

    Secondly the sound is screwed up. By screwed up I mean whenever it feels like it, it doesn't exist. Usually this happens when the computer starts up, sometimes I'll have sound, sometimes I won't. Every so often it will just lose sound while the computer is running whenever it feels like it.

    Last of all, certain buttons I can't click on. For example, in my Gmail I can't attach anything, I can't send any invites, hell I can't even send an email. I have to go to school and send an email from there if I ever want to from my gmail account. Do you have any idea how stupid it is to receive an email on one account and reply to it on another? I also can't select a genere on FFR anymore. Yep... no more FFR for me, and just as multiplayer came around too.

    Also the sound thing I recently discovered, it doesn't actually lose it's sound. It just prevents anything involving sound to be played. For instance I can start a Stepmania song and nothing will happen, it will just sit there. I start an MPG and it just won't start. Of course it doesn't play simple sounds either (like AIM and MSN sign in's)

    Did I mention this computer is MAYBE only a year old and fully virus scanned?

    My computer is a retard. I'm going to go restart now so hopefully I'll be able to play a single level of Stepmania.

            That has nothign to do with your computer. I haven't been able to select genres since the update either =\ probably just a bug.

              Ah glad to know that

              I thought it was the same as the gmail thing.

              As for the computer specs, I have a screenshot of them all (taken when I signed up for WoW stress test). I know I have it somewhere so when I find it I'll post it.

                Uh...as far as the genre thing goes, did you try clicking off the the M at the top, and onto a play style? Otherwise, you can't select genres.

                Way 2 go.

                Oh yeah, and

                  thats not true at all anti.... if you are playing multiplayer that is... if you are playing MP, you have to be on the M, and you should be able to switch.... but yes, if you are not playing MP, you have to switch the bar at the top to either scroll up or reverse... etc.

                          Ditch IE and get Firefox or Mozilla.

                            So I've gone completely slack-ass and haven't done any work on creating games. =(

                            In less-depressing news, I got a job for an online business (which sells non-electronic games, of all things!) which has taught me a lot about marketing online and all that jazz.

                            So now I'm on Twitter @NoahWright.
                            And I write the blog for their website.

                            Plus I do cool programming in-house that you'll never see. =O

                              That's not a reason to not use Firefox.
