Rynne's Computer Woes

[rynne]

Rynne: Ohhh, I want to make icons! *tries to download the trial version of photoshop*
Photoshop: Oops, sorry. You have a Windows 98, and you have to have at least ME to download me. *smug*
Rynne: Dammit!
Photoshop: Oh stop whining. You can upgrade, can't you?
Rynne: *eyes light up* WHY YES I CAN! And if I grab the CD from my parents, that should make things easier...

(several weeks later)

CD: *being elusive*
Rynne: Dammit!
CD: *sneaksneaksneak*
Rynne: Where aaare you, you sorry excuse for an XP CD? Come out come out wherever you are!
CD: *hides*
Rynne: *lazy* I'll find it later.

(several weeks later)

MSPaint: Why no, I won't put text on your icons for you! Don't you just want to kill me?
Rynne: YES
MSPaint: Too bad you're stuck with me then!
Rynne: Dammit!
Rynne's Dad: You still haven't found the CD yet?
Rynne: *pout* No.
Rynne's Dad: *leaves for a minute, comes back* Here. *drops CD on desk*
Rynne: *shoves CD in CD drive* Now work, damn you.
XP CD: You have to disable or uninstall McAfee VirusScan before you can upgrade!
Rynne: ... *disables McAfee VirusScan*
XP CD: You have to disable or uninstall McAfee VirusScan before you can upgrade!
Rynne: -_-; *uninstalls McAfee VirusScan*
XP CD: Thank you! We will now take seventy-one minutes to look over your software!
Rynne: ... *takes out book*

(thirty minutes later)

XP CD: You are missing something you need to continue upgrading to XP, but we won't tell you what it is!
Rynne: *narrows eyes*
XP CD: Ignoring our previous statement, we are finished! Press "finish" if you would like to restart!
Rynne: ... *presses "finish"*
Computer: *freezes*
Rynne: Dammit! *ctrl alt delete*
Computer: *restarts*
Rynne: *sigh of relief*
Computer: We think you may have bad clusters! Please wait two and a half hours while we check.
Rynne: *glares* -_-; *takes out book again*

(two and a half hours later)

Computer: Sorry, our mistake, you don't have any bad clusters!
Rynne: ...useless piece of crap...
Computer: Just for that, I'll freeze again! *freezes*
Rynne: Dammit! *restarts*
Computer: *restarts*
Rynne: Good computer...nice computer...now upgrade to XP so I can make my pretty icons...
Computer: *persistently 98*
Rynne: *mutters* Fucktard... *boots up XP CD again*
XP CD: Do you want us to look over your software?
Rynne: NO! You already did that, why are you offering to do it again?
XP CD: We must look over your software or we cannot install!
Rynne: *cries*

*giggles* Not in the least funny, seeing as I've been there done that, but the way you wrote it is simply amusing.

But believe me when I say I understand. I use a freaking ME. I've had to reformat my computer 30+ times in the last year, and during one month, more than 10. I've had important files randomly disappear, and I've had to use MS-Dos to replace them with a downloaded version. I've had to manually edit my registry because of some insane issues. My computer's just as messed up.

And when I tried to upgrade to XP, the same exact thing happened to me. *hugs* I sympathize.
