by Maarten Goldstein, Jul 31, 2001 7:08am PDTI dont think I'll be able to go back home in a month and a half. So much good food and snacks. I'll miss them :| I should bring some stuff to home maybe but my suitcase doesn't fit much extra since I already brought a ton of clothes and electronics. Must figure something out! So I have this generic PCMCIA Ethernet card and I've been trying to upgrade to Windows 2000. Most things work fine, except for the Ethernet card. While Windows 98 knew the kind of network adapter and worked by itself, Windows 2000 doesn't. Great. So I download the official drivers. Windows 2000 then says the drivers aren't suitable for the device. And on 2nd try it says the INF files for the drivers are wrong. Anyway even though its been over 12 hours since I installed Windows 2000, I still cant get online. Crappy drivers or crappy MS, I haven't decided yet. Update: well I got it working. It was some weird BIOS conflict related to my onboard audio that only effected Win2k. Once I disabled the SoundBlaster in the BIOS the Ethernet card initialized just fine. Movie: Do you have that one with that guy who was in that movie last year?

but I'm reading this interview with Bob Lazar who used to work at Area 51 and (i think) commited suicide some time after being interviewed
I'm about halfway through the interview so far, its very very intriguing.

Q: Was it lit up... how did it look at night?
L: Oh it glows. It works almost like a fluorescent tube with the amount of energy that's on the craft... what you're doing is ionizing the air around it... they really can't avoid that...
Q: How the hell... that's why everyone sees them all the time.
L: Yeah, unfortunately, that's just the way it's going to be.
Q: You're seeing the air, not the craft. They're seeing the ionized air... they're never seeing the craft.
Q: That's interesting... this is fascinating... 'cause I've always read accounts saying like this ball of fire... ball of light... and it's always blown my mind 'cause there's metal in there... but the metal has to disappear so we're seeing the ionized air.
L: Yeah, it doesn't disappear it's just an envelope around it... electrons are screaming off there and they hit...
Q: What color is it?
L: It's a sodium yellow color... almost like yellow street lights.
Q: Does it get red or anything... does it change color at all?
L: I didn't see it do that... it gets brighter or dimmer but I didn't see it change color.

Guy explains to his doctor, "Doc, when I got up this morning, I put on a pair of white gloves and started calling my wife Minnie. Then on the way to work I couldn't help singing 'Hi Ho, Hi Ho, It's off to work I go', and when I got there I started calling everyone Happy, Grumpy, Dopey and so on. What's the matter with me?"
"That's easy," replies the doctor. "You're having Disney spells."

Its how to make your own custom autobooting-installing windows XP disc. You boot the computer with it, pick #1, go take a nap, and less then 30 mins WindowsXP is installed without your presence needed.
I put the "I just want a damn autobooting-installing windows XP disc" instructions, and a crappy help file to explain if you want to do your own customizations.

Currently it works 100% although preinstalled drivers arent working the way they should, but I think its cause winxp is nitpicky about drivers, so it installs its own.
I recommend nvidia 12.41 drivers, it seems anything else will cause wmp8/divx bsod.
