Wow, Microsoft's Out To Ruin My Night
#1
Installed the nice shiny new trial edition of XP Pro 64-bit, or so I thought. WHOOPS - the cd key I have doesn't work, because I guess the final trial keys don't work with a Release Candidate install. Fack.

Install Server 2003 64-bit. Same freaking thing. Why can't I burn what I download like every other Internet moron?

Install Server 2003 Enterprise Edition trial version (180-day license). On a NForce 4 SLI-based board. With no official support from Nvidia. Thanks Nvidia. BUT, they have support for XP Pro 64-bit and Server 2003 64-bit. Pricks. What dam donut-munching, ballsack-scratching, boss-blowing retard came up with that one?

So no sound, only one network card... at least the GD video card drivers on this GeForce 6200 installed. :rolleyes:

Guess what I'm burning first thing in the morning?

To paraphrase Meford, Bill Gates = King Fuktard.

That is all.

Oh they're fine, I just had one copy of one and a serial for another.

We just lost power at work and I get to go home after working for all of 15 minutes today. YES!

After I shut the rest of the servers down...

EDIT - I'm on a kickass UPS solution, hence the ability to type this from work :)

That's the hassle when you're trying to run "bleeding edge" OS'es on hardware from manufacturers that don't always stand behind their products <_<

Server '03 Enterprise Edition isn't a "consumer level" OS so it doesn't surprise me that Nvidia wouldn't support it on their board. Why Server '03 64 bit supports it? I suspect a common code base with XP Pro 64 bit. It amazes me that they get away with this s**t, but it doesn't surprise me.

That's why I'm always wary of installing the "latest & greatest" OS or utility on my machine. I need to work, not futz around for hours trying to make it work :angry:

To clarify, it's Nvidia's fault, not MS's. I was just bitching.

And MAN there are a lot of technophobes out there. Windows 95 OEM copies, anyone? :rolleyes:

I guess my nice, new and cheap VoIP solution is supported by the DEVIL too eh?
