Barely use the one I have. No point in buying a new one to have it collect dust.
Comcast is only getting 50 bucks
I just gave them 50 bucks. No idea when or if the bill will be changed to the new amount. I think they said my balance was around 40, so my bill next month will be less then 50 bucks.
I got sick of waiting, so I sent them the money. Maybe I won't keep checking to see if the bill has been updated now.
Comcast ripping people off since 1963
Want to pay 50 bucks a month for 6 mbps internet? Comcast is what you want. If you want 50 mbps, that'll cost you almost 80 bucks a month. Apparently they don't offer 105 mbps for almost 80 bucks anymore. I was on the 105 mbps plan, and at some point they lowered my speed and increased my bill.
When you try to downgrade or ask why your bill is still almost 80 bucks, they will try to sell you something. They claim their site has to synchronize with the billing system. So if it doesn't synchronize before it's due, I won't be paying. I'm not paying almost 80 bucks for 6 mbps internet. Just not happening, I'd rather have no internet in that case.
Why does desktop seem faster?
Must be because I was using my hackintosh until the new cooler came. Once you use something slow, a faster computer will seem much faster.
VIA USB 3 Root Hub This device cannot start. (Code 10)
The fix is simple, if your chipset is VL800, use the driver from Syba's site. The latest driver didn't want to work. Not sure if my USB 3.0 Lexar flash drive will work though, it seemed to work only after updating the driver, wasn't running the driver from Syba's site before though.
New water cooler came
My NZXT X31 water cooler came today.
I'll install it after dinner. That'll be a while, just turned the oven on.
Update
The cooler appears to work. But my USB 3.0 card no longer works in Windows.
The VIA USB 3 Root Hub says "This device cannot start. (Code 10)". I tried removing the driver, and using an old driver. Nothing works. Turned computer off and unplugged it and flipped the switch, that didn't work either. I can't access my external drives with no USB 3.0. Only my eSATA drive.
Fixed it by using the driver from Syba's site.
Oh yeah it came with thermal paste already on it. I used it, that way I didn't have to guess how much to put on. I don't care about the brand of thermal paste.
The silent mode doesn't work at all. Still loud as fuck. Maybe I plugged the fans into the wrong connectors. Wouldn't think it would matter. Probably won't replace either of the fans. I think it must be the new fan, or is the pump? I think it is the pump actually. Sounds similar to the sound before, just louder.
The radiator didn't work plugged into my four pin CPU fan connector. Also the instructions say to use the already attached Intel bracket, it doesn't line up to the standoffs on my AMD motherboard. I took it off, and had to search Google to figure out how to put the bracket on. There's a video that sort of shows how to do it. I probably didn't put it on correctly, moved a little. Guess if my temps go up, I'll know why. The radiator is plugged into my 3 pin SYS fan connector.
What happens when you contact Comcast?
They try and sell you faster internet and basic cable. I'm not paying 70 bucks a month. I was paying less for 105 mbps internet, until they lowered me to 50 mbps and tried charging me almost 80 bucks a month for.
They said it takes time for their site to synchronize with the billing system.
I closed the chat when they asked if I wanted their "deal" for 70 bucks a month. I'll keep my 6 mbps for 50 bucks a month.
Ghost works on BUYSHARED
Looks like Ghost works on BUYSHARED. Go to the control panel and under software click the installer thing, it'll install it for you.
