What Are You Doing Right Now

Just built a new PC for my wife. Nothing big, but I got a serious problem with the mainboard: It won't boot if a graphics card is installed in the first PCIe x16 slot. Boots fine if I use the other x16 slot, but the second one is only wired as x4.
What now? RMA that thing? Just keep it? ....

@thwr
check the manual, that's a common thing for mobo manufacturers to doRMA it - I read your post wrong

BIOS update?
Firmware update on the video card?
-
@thwr RMA that sucka. Or check the HCL to make sure the GPU is fully supported.

Radeon 7850, not exactly brand new
But enough for Path of Exile, the only game she's playingRMA would take weeks, so I would need to order another board in between

Was the first thing I did

Working on an sql script, prices are going up on our webstore and I'd rather not have to change the 4 pricing levels on 500 products manually. Yay for local db copies to pry on before running anything live!

Just got an invite to see the premiere of the new Star Wars movie from CDW. With partner demos from Lenovo, Sophos, and Unitrends. But potentially free drinks....

But are free drinks enough to sit through a movie?
-
And The folks I've dealt with at CDW are good peeps.

Maybe? It is a super nice theatre, reclining seats and all. And they serve good, local beers.

I haven't had time to see it at all yet. It's on my list of things to nab from Netflix at some point... eventually.

That was my impression of the first 40 minutes.

It's like a low budget, Disney channel made for TV reboot of the original. They couldn't get the good actors and writers and gave it the silly southern California Disney Channel treatment. If you like Hannah Montanna, you've love the new Star Wars.
-
That's not really fair. I like Hannah Montana and it wasn't enough to get me happy about the SW remake.
