As you can see from the above image, Belldandy is finally revived! It took me a couple months but I finally did it. Hopefully I’ll have some time over the weekend and will be able to get the RO server back up and running. Still a lot of work to do on it but I’m glad that it’s finally operational and semi-working the way I want it to.

I’m waiting on the arrival of a SATA Y-splitter to hook up the last 1TB hard drive that I have. My stupid power supply only has 4 SATA connectors… Ah well, I never thought I was gonna end up with 5 hard drives when I first built this PC.

So I finally got around to working on my desktop, Belldandy, and get it up and running again. It was running Windows XP Professional SP2 before, but it was running really sluggish from all of the use that it got from me doing everything that I do. Several weeks, or I guess months now, I decided that I wanted to reinstall the operating system to make it more stable for users and for myself.

So I decided to get back into EVE Online after finding out that someone in the same department had started playing during the summer. I thought it would be better to play along with someone else I knew IRL instead of having to find new friends all over again. We happened to attract attention from a 3rd person and got them started as well. So far it’s been fun, but haven’t been able to play as much as when I first started because of all of the stupid school work… It’s a conspiracy I tells ya!

I finally got around to upgrading my laptop from Vista to Windows 7. So far I like it and a lot of the quirks that were in Vista doesn’t seem to be apparent in 7. It took me a long time to finally convince myself to upgrade to Windows 7 because I wasn’t sure if Windows 7 came with the drivers that were needed for my laptop, and Sony hasn’t put out any Windows 7 drivers. Which doesn’t necessarily mean that the XP/Vista drivers won’t work… I just don’t like taking a wild guess and possible be wrong.

I finally got another message in uTorrent saying that my new/incoming anime drive is reaching MAXIMUM CAPACITY! The drive that I’ve highlighted is the one in question, I went and deleted a couple of DVD ISO files that had been downloaded that I didn’t need, which freed up a little bit of space. But it seems that I have to go take a couple hours of my life and sort through everything to free up some space. Speaking of which… I still need to sort all of the anime music that I’ve been collecting over the years too… sigh…

Maybe I could just get another 1TB hard drive and that would solve all of my problems! But then where am I gonna get the $100 to buy it… :< Darn it!
