Computer's Dead

Currently I'm writing this from the public library...

My computer seems to have died and I don't think it's coming back.

Hopefully the hard drive still works and I haven't lost anything from it. If I'm lucky, it might just bad wiring. Apparently, the computer fails to detect my HD! My machine is quite unreliable and does this regularly, but in the past it was able to fix itself within an hour.

It's been two days now... and yeah. I don't think I've got much hope left :/

I am still able to draw on another computer, but I cannot access the internet from my house. Therefore, I'll continue to work on CoM pages but won't be able to post them from my personal computer...

Sorry guys, and thank you all for your support!

My word.
Wah, I found Rune~! o_o I didn't know you posted your Mabi comics here. I would've joined Smackjeeves sooner had I known... (I was actually thinking of doing my own webcomic sometime myself, which is why I've been looking around here in the first place.)

But I guess it's just a small world... and apparently the internet is even smaller. I saw your last comic updated on the front page, actually. O_o Must be fate we randomly meet again on the internet, eh?

Anyway, I'm sorry to hear about your poor compy choking on you. That happened to me not too long ago myself... x_x Not fun, ah?

Do you have any idea when you may be able to get it fixed? If it's not soon, I could maybe do some guest comics for you. I don't know if you've seen my art, but you can look at my dA account if you're interested. (http://spadeq.deviantart.com - Forgive me, there's not a whole lot there at the moment.)

I know you don't really know me all that well, but you're always being really awesome and kind with drawing our characters and all our (mis)adventures. I'd be more than happy to offer a hand if you need a few fillers, courtesy of your Lady Spade~ D:

Anyway, hope your computer gets fixed all quick-like~ We'll all miss you and your lovely works until then~ >:

Oh heh Spaaade! I haven't seen you around in awhile. Do you still visit the IRC channel? I'm there on weekends because my weekdays are full of school and marching band ;_; Good to see you!

I asked around about my computer, and figured out that I may have a crappy motherboard. My brother has told me that I should just rebuild a computer for under $500... the only things I'd have to buy is the mobo, processor, and some RAM. My HDDs are, fortunately, still good ^^;

Today I just cleaned the computer (it was extremely dusty inside) because I got word that uncleanliness affects computer performance. Now I am leaving my machine alone to rest... I will see if it starts working later. If not, I probably won't have a computer to scan & print things with for awhile.

Good thing I have some pre-scanned pages, but honestly not enough to last me the time it may take to order parts and build a new system--assuming mine stops working completely >_<

I've seen your art when you linked from the forum, and personally I think it's amazing o___o Very detailed and well-drawn. You never <i>have</i> to draw any guest comics or art for me, but you are certainly welcome to! In all honesty I love receiving art from other people--I get teary-eyed every time! Out of joy, of course.

That would be wonderful, but don't go out of your way to do so ^^;

Thank you so very much for the kindness! You know Rune has always loved Spade even though we haven't hung out for that long or that much D:

I hope to see your very own comic up soon~!
