C'mon, guys, it's time for you to rant about your shit that doesn't work.

My car's water pump has a leak of epic proportions, and I am having to fill it up with water/radiator fluid at least a couple of times a day. As awesome as it is to have steam pouring out from underneath your hood as you wait outside the preschool and assure all the moms walking by that you can indeed handle things...

And then there was the little girl who jumped and clapped her hands over her ears when I started the car.

My ati radieon 4350 I bought at best buy for 70 bucks

after installing it it worked fine for about 3 or 4 weeks then on start up it started making this weird, going nuts turbo like fan noise for 10 minutes till it calms down and goes back to normal.

and reciently if it doesn't start making noise on start up it just starts smelling like the fan motor is burning itself out and the only way to remedy this is to shut the computer down, spin the fan a little and restart the computer.

basically im going to use this thing till it burns out on me, and the next ones going to be a nvidia with a heat sink, no more fucking fans and no more fucking ati.

did you try testing the monitor with another pc or the pc with another monitor?

or if you got it online does it have any bad reviews that indicate the same prob?

What part is leaking? The coolant tubes or is the leak in the inlet/outlet pipe somewhere?


I need to fix the amplifier knob on my power amp. Other than that, I can't think of anything that is broken. There's just a lot of work around the house.

Lmao.. I was just looking to buy an Acer monitor last night.. I found a really nice one for 150 dollars. Was going to get two..

As for my rant?.. Well, I still have yet to figure out the frequency I need to play over the phone to knock people out.

My trucks gear indicator broke yesterday. It shows as 1st gear all the time. Both xbox 360 controllers "stick". My big headphones broke, easily fixed with solder.

It's... Somewhere that wouldn't be easy to reach. Would take about $1,000 to fix, and I've already spent over $2,000 in repairs on this car in the past year and a half, so it's time to move on. I'm getting a new car, though I hate to do that... It'll probably cost less than maintaining this one, though.

thats a pic of the monitor on with no cables attached, Ive tried it on other PCs as well. so yeah it definely the monitor. For the most part it had great reviews.

well to be honest, i thought it was a great looking monitor, the speekers are a little lacking is sound, but i don't use them anyways. had know probmes till now. But they come with three year warranty and came with all three type video cables.

On topic...

Comcast!, they piss me off. There upgrading to docsis 3 in my area. Despite the fact that the 8Mb/s (5 sustained) upload speed burts is nice, the lag spikes are f'ing rediculous. Before anyone says anything, I'm already aware its the ISP and not me.

Comcast has always sucked balls. At least in the PA/NJ/NY tri-state area.

My radar stopped working this morning. It used to sound like she just smoked a lot of cigarettes when she would talk, but now... she's lost her voice altogether! ;_;

Time to pick up a Valentine. D:

My wife won't work harder... i told her, "Wench," yah I call her Wench. I said, "Wench, the money coming in is less than what we put out." She acted like I had a solution to our problem, and yet a year and a half later, she can still barely handle the job she currently has. And though spending more time away from her is appleasing, she is still not working!

Kias are fine. Their biggest fault is that they have no resale value due to poor reputation (which was once deserved, but no longer), but that doesn't really matter to me because I tend to run my cars into the ground rather than sell them. Don't even pretend you know everything, Walter.
