486!

I'm currently restoring my 3 hard drives worth of information that I had while Tammy and I were together. I bought

4 megs of memory	$190.00
486DX/33 with 64k cache	$470.00
Medium Tower case with 200 watt power	$109.00
2H, 2F, Tape, 2parallel, 1 serial I/O card	$29.00
Tape backup 120 meg	$229.95
120meg tape	$19.00
1.4meg floppy	$59.95

I think that's all. I just put the prices in here to see how they fall in the future.

I bought it in those pieces from EPO. (There was quite a cute girl at the cash register.) I had a lot of trouble getting it working- It even baffled Pierre and my dad. I couldn't get FDisk to work properly. then Hal came over and did the same things we all tried and it fucking worked.

Hmmm this sucks. I just restored everything to C D & E drives, but the C drive won't boot. So I can only boot from A:. I noted that IBMIO.SYS and the other hidden file weren't there, so I copied them over, but it still didn't work. so I just now reformatted C: with the /s switch to transfer system files. It worked. Now I'm re-restoring the 4 disks worth of drive C stuff. Cool. If the boots OK, I'll try putting all 4 megs of my memory in the machine and we'll see if that works. Then I want to run Stunts. "Tomorrow" I'm going shopping with Tammy. We'll buy shorts and stuff for me.

Shit this sucks! I just tried to reboot and it prints some garbage shit on the screen. Three times in a row. Same shit. Well, I don't know what the hell is wrong. I just played Stunts. Cool. Laterpermalink
