It's been a while
Oct. 8th, 2009 09:05 pmBut RL took it's toll. I'm officially back to school. And the last week I had so much input that I wasn't in the mood to either draw, write or render anything.
My mind was occupied with things like 'WTF is an int?' and do I need to finish the line of coding with a semicolon or not? And how in the name of all gods do I convert (5746)8 into a hexa decimal code.
The answer (if anybody's interested) is: (5746)8 = (101111100110)2 = (BE6)16 - Thanks Escalbryt XD
And besides that I had fun with installing Windows 7.
Since I still had XP running on my machine I had to make a clean install.
Which wasn't that complicated. And even if I never believed, I would say it - but I really recommend the upgrade from XP to Windows 7.
It's a pain in the ass to reinstall all programs, but the effort is worth it. My machine runs smooth on 64-bit and after I've update my graphic card's driverwhich will need just another update after I exchanged my old NVidia 7300 with a *cough* better one programms like Photoshop do their job perfectly.
Although I haven't tested any games yet.
An update on how old games are running will follow soon. Within the next two weeks we'll have a LAN-Party. And the first big task will be to get all PCs to work in the same network... XP, Vista and Win7 in the same network - it'll involve a lot of cusing and liters of coffee.
