Tomorrow I'll be having a computer guy come over and see what's wrong with my machine.
Hopefully nothing bad but just in case, I might as well render what I have here.
Merry Xmas and Stay Wiggly! (~'w'~)

update: i got a sidegrade, new mobo, new processor, new ram, all 2nd hand and my ram is currently down to 4gb for now (more repairs to come soon). hopefully more repairs tomorrow and get me back to 16gb!
