Some people have bad hair days, bad fashion days, etc.  Today is a bad computer day for me.  First of all, my PC is running slower than usual.  It's a piece of crap anyway, and typically is just barely on the border of usable, but today it's ridiculous.  Unfortunately, my own workstation is not the end of the day's computer woes.

I went over to our multimedia editing workstation, which is easily the best PC on the floor, ready to get together our latest batch of Merge Messages.  Everything seemed normal at first, it was running nice and fast as usual.  When I tried to import the video, however, it just locked up.  I rebooted, same thing.

After about an hour applying every software and driver update I could find, tinkering around with various settings and rebooting ad nauseum, still no dice.  Now I had a broken computer, wasted time and my own slow-ass workstation to look forward to.

Looks like I'll be doing the Merge Messages from home tonight.  Here's wishing a speedy recovery to the media PC...  With Musikfest coming the last thing we need is to have that sucker out of commission.
