I have just recently turned into a heavy PC Gamer, World of Warcraft being the main reason, but as soon as I reached lvl 40...I don't know...I guess I lost the flavor for it...and then there is my Guild Wars. Guild Wars I could play all day long, kinda ironic really, most people if they get addicted to any game online usually now-a-days tends to be a game such as World of Warcraft. Which is the opposite of Guild wars in terms of enthrallment material....kinda hard explain but for those that know what I am speaking of, back me up on this.
A PC gamer without a reliable PC, is like a fish out of water! My computer got bugged, and not just any bug, a super-bug or virus of some sort. Not only did it knock out the defenses of my McAfee and Windows Firewall but it corrupted most of my files as well wiped my out my OS! Then on top of that, as per my comp crashing due to the virus, it would not turn back on afterwards. I tried replacing the power supply, tried another motherboard I had on extra as well as another hard drive but to no avail. So what does this mean?
Well, first off, I am the type to back up my files, so they have been backed up on my site and server as well as my secondary hard drive. Second, I have had the computer that I was using for like the last 3 years and no probs whatsoever until today.
So, sad to say, I pulled my backup HD, my vid card , my optical drive, and my RAM then tossed my old friend into the dumpster (ragged ol' tower anyway, seen more dings than a shopping cart in a parking lot).
So, for now I am stuck on my parents computer updating the site every so often. The only drawback to this situation (aside from the crash of '07) is no gaming online whatsoever. Due to the fact that the computer upon which I type this blog can barely handle Win XP as it is, but I am grateful.
I plan on buying a new and better computer at the end of January so I suppose at least one thing will be brand new at the start of next year, so it worx out.

PS: Some people would argue Norton over McAfee and some people would argue neither, but I am a McAfee man, and proud of it!

PSS??: My PS2 is great so I am good on that front, thank the good lord! :D

I was addicted to WoW for a long time and finally stopped playing this past Summer. I never did try guild wars though. Good luck with the computer situation. My current computer has been very reliable, but all past ones have had problems.
