Computer problems

My computer has been getting slower and slower, so I've decided to reformat my hard drive and get more RAM. Preparing for the reformat, I'm trying to set up a home network so I can easily transfer a bunch of my files onto Kira's computer, but we can't figure out how to do the network right. We've gotten it so that I can see her computer on the network, but can't access her shared file. She's never been able to see my computer yet. Neither of us are money enough to figure this out. Argh.

I can't play Civ4 at a reasonable speed until I figure this out, which is a big problem.

I think I'll be getting more RAM for Civ4, too. I have the minimum 256 but it is sloooow. I might also need a new video card, which is kind of dumb because, well, it's Civ. At least this means I haven't been playing much.

don't forget to CTRL+ALT+TAB, Task Manager, Processes in order to see what's using up the bulk of your memory. in my case, the loud angry noises coming from my box was hard drive being used as memory 'cause of some bastard Logitech apps.

my word verification: no gzm

maybe that's why my box is so angry.

adspar awake while walt's at work? not likely.
