Computer surgery...

[eternal_rena]

Finished doing my surgery to my computer, which I replaced my spoiled case fan which I had no idea when it broke down but I knew it was going to when the speed of the fan dropped to like 500 rpm ish speed

Kill your comp? In what sense?

Ahh...I see...XD

I'm quite surprised that I'm pretty good with machinery, I just don't have any expertise in it. But if given the training and knowledge, I'm sure I'll do pretty well. I should have taken an engineering course when I was still studying...only problem is...which one...D:

Happy birthday!

Though I doubt you're older than me unless you just turned 31. I only seem to have two people on my flist older than me (and one only by a few months).

Hope the external TV tuner works better for you than mine did for me. I ended up returning it three days later because it sucked.

I know...I've heard that external ones are lousier than internal ones, but I can't find any internal ones that seem to be good...so I had to try an external one. Not like I'm going to use it to watch TV though. It's mainly for recording stuff from my game consoles. Hopefully it works well in that regard at least since antenna reception is actually quite crappy for watching TV. Cable is better (the house TV is run via a cable point so even the free channels can be tuned into this way).

EDIT: I just tried the TV Tuner on my 360 and recorded stuff. It's working quite well *_* Plus I can play it on 16:9 wide screen setting! But the most surprising thing is that...I CAN SEE THE ENEMY NAME AND THEIR HP IN BATTLE AFTER THEY'RE SCANNED...WHEN I HOLD THE TARGET SWITCH BUTTON \O/

P.S. I just turned 27.

That was the problem I had with mine, recording game footage. I haven't watched TV in years. There was a massive delay between what was shown on the screen and what was really happening, enough to the point that it actually screwed my game up.

Make sure to try a complex battle that would require good timing, just try playing, you don't need to record. If you do fine in the battle, great, maybe they finally fixed the delay issues. If not, then you'll have to either adjust to that or try a different one.

How good the timing do I need it to be? Cause I tried it with Yuri's tension skills and it's more or less the same as when I'm playing on the TV, timing and stuff wise, did the same thing, and I didn't feel any difference. When I recorded me messing around with Yuri's tension skills, it still ran smoothly and the video came out good.

Then I continued the game a bit and it was going good too. What I did in battles was actually in time with what pressed on the controller. All my movements matched with the time too.

Happy Birthday.
Computer surgery sounds complicated...wish I knew how to do some techie things. :)

[eternal_rena]

Haha...what I did is actually considered simple to do >D
