so i got a new tablet today, the bamboo fun. and everything was bright and shiny and the world was happy and then i tried to install it… :[ and that was a nightmare. i don’t know what happened.. maybe it wasn’t the tablet’s fault, maybe it was, who knows. all i know is that it asked me to restart my computer, and i did, and when windows came back, nothing worked! i had a panic attack and then calmed myself and tried to fix what had gone wrong. i figured, ok the tablet driver has caused a problem and maybe its stuck. so i booted in safe mode, and removed the driver and restarted. the problem PERSISTED! so i thought ok, i’ll just system restore to a point before i installed this thing… no dice. nothing was working, it was lagged to the point where i could not use it, yet in safe mode it was fine, so i knew it couldn’t be a hardware issue.

so i bit the bullet and did a pc restore. using a program on my computer’s restore partition (i have an hp pavillion) i was able to restore without losing documents which was nice because i wanted to keep my sims 2 stuff. most of my stuff is on the external drive so stuff wasn’t lost.

so now i’m restoring all the programs that were killed due to the restore.. X_x i’m glad i have two computers…

i’m seeing this kinda like a sign that i need to restart more than my computer. my life has taken a pretty swift swoop downward and i think i should try to pick it up a bit.. what an awful way to end the year… screwed up computer and alot to think about.
