Ok, so The Wife's compy is working 100% and I was FINALLY able to get mine to work. Turns out it was my DVD player.
Go figure.
Weirdest thing was, it was acting like either an insufficient power issue, or bad RAM. And looking back, I have had these types of problems before. And that drive is the only thing conistent through all of it. So I grabbed The Wife's CD-RW (she was upgraded to a DVD-R Dual Layer... w00t!) and am using that. System works like a friggin' champ.
Working on reinstalling my apps, and getting back to norm. Prolly should wrap this up soon an' git mahse'f to bed, 'afore The Wife kicks my arse.
Heheh... funny thing about life. Ya grow up, an' yer parents harp on ya about gettin' ta bed on time - ya turn 18 and stay out all night partying and hangin' wit' friends - then ya get married an' yer spouse harps on ya about gettin' ta bed on time. Talk about a circular journey.
On a side note, a friend of mine has a new blog / forum up. It's a place for people to air out their biggest screwups. Just be careful what you ost if anything... this IS the Internet* and info travels fast. Especially info that ya don't want too many people knowing.
