[elky] Re: OT: It's alive...more or less

Yeah...that boot time is unreel with the SSD.

And I agree about small battles. I finally decided to fight the battle on my own turf, so I brought the Dreadnought over to the "control center" and hooked it up to my normal screen and monitor via a peripheral switch I've had for years.

I gotta get another HDD to work with the damned thing so I can install stuff there rather than taking up a lotta room on the SSD. That's my stumbling block now...that and the need to flash the SSD's firmware with the latest level and then reinstall Win 7. I'm gettin good at that. But I gotta say that it's the easiest Windoze installation I've ever done (I skipped Vista.)

Back to work after taking some time out to run a few errands.

Woot! 15 second boot?  WOW

You don't get that "Yay everything works perfectly!"... but you win
small battles.  It took me some time to get all my drivers installed.
It's usually best to get them online anyway, the CDs are usually out
of date.
