Ay carumba!

What sucks is that my Hercules 3D Prophet 9700 Pro graphics card has decided to go on the blink. So, now I need to RMA the thing and wait for a refurbished one or a replacement. In the meantime, I'm running with a similar card but a slightly older hardware revision.

What would be nifty is if Hercules would replace it with one of their 9800 Pro cards. But, I'm not holding out much hope for that.

I finished Full Spectrum Warrior over the last weekend. I was playing it on the easier difficulty setting though. So, I've started it again on the harder difficulty setting. However, I also enabled a few cheats. I'm not too far in so I'm contemplating ending it all and trying the US Army version that's included instead.

Another MPR pledge drive. I already gave so this feels like torture. But, they probably need the money since federal and state funding keeps getting reduced.
