Building One More Again

Well it sems I'm going to build another one first of next week.....

My wife has been using mine now for about a month while her Rig went to California for more repairs....It just got home today after 3 1/2 weeks gone......I was excited as heck as I have a new monitor comming tomorrow and finally my FSX should be flawless....

Well her computer came broken..No Boot-In, no Video, Just goes right to the FF Code(no post) and sits there..I did all the usual of removing and reseating everything and checking all cables...No go.....:banghead:

So we argued and bickered with the builders and reached an agreement to refund the money at todays market price and a 5% restocking fee..( rig is 6 months old)

So I just ordered parts to build her a new one simular to mine....They should be here first of the week...

So again I get to wait for FSX and it costs me about 1000 bucks to cut the custom built loose...:banghead:

We had consitered having it repaired and then selling it ,but that just seemed like cruel and unusual punishment for the buyer..I would not wish that on an enemy...LOL

Some days it just doesn't pay to get up....

Her new computer...

Case: Thermaltake VH8000BWS BK

HD2: 300G VelociRaptor @ 10,000

The only bright spot to this all is that I get to build it....And be done with that company thats provided me with 6 months of hell and headaches.....

It will be my third in like 45 days ....Its fun....And Adicting to say the least...( Mr. Txnetcop) :costumes::wavey:
