Does your puter work properly (you're in control), or does it screw you over constantly?
Also what puter/OS do you use? If you have some memories (of love or hate) go on and share to the members of the board =)

I remember one time when a CD-burner refused to work... that drove me crazy...
It was some hardwarefault so I couldn't do anything about it myself.

(btw it was a HP burner... 4x, from 2000 or so)
I hate when computers refuse to work. Most people take it personally, and threat the puter more like a person than a machine... hehe. that is crazy. It's weird how ofthen you can solve electronics-stuff problem by beating on them.

i like my computer! sometimes, of course, we have quarrels (like every people living together most of the time!), he freaks me out with important bugs or i have to unplug him...
he makes me very sad and anxious sometimes (lately he had some weird ilnesses, i was afraid i would have to reformat him, but fortunately he recovered!... twice also he didn't let me connect on the internet and needed lots of time to start up, the two times it was when i left a girl i know when she was sad and i didn't know what to do - i wonder if she is a sorceress who sent this bug to me as a punishment, or if it's my computer who wanted to punish me for that - i still felt guilty for it! i hate it when people i like are sad and me not knowing what to do...) - - but most of the time our relationship is happy. : )

I bitch slap mine every time it misbehaves (sorts out the fan noise ;) )
It used to crash a lot due to overheatingh, but since I underclocked it it's very stable.
No problems with mine...

Anybody know how to best handle your memory in Windows ME? I mean it eats up my RAM. It's not as configurable (without other software) than e.g. win2K.

only reason I don't use XP is that it won't work properly with DOS...
I ofthen watch old cracktros/demos and play older games... Maybe I could install Dr Dos or something... but I don't know.

nah... I'm from 1983 actually =)
I remember when I was a kid I didn't see things as "pixels". I thought everything looked "drawn"... that's a cool fact.
Even the really old games with B&W/CGA/EGA (or alike) graphics.

My puter works properly almost all the time. It's a Dell PIII 700, 512MB RAM, running WinMe.
Only thing I've ever had to fix in the nearly 3 years I've had it is to fit a replacement PSU fan. I'm convinced that the more people 'fiddle' with their puters the more problems they seem to have.

oh my WinME and puter (1ghz PIII, though only 256 RAM) works fine to, and is always fixable if not.
Though WubME tend to take a lot of RAM and do nothing with it.
I can free RAM with stuff like "TweakAll", but not sure if it really helps.
Might be something else. Anyway I need the ram for making music only, otherwise the puter works OK.
