Zippy, please don't take offense at this, none is intended, but are you dyslexic? I'm guilty of being over-critical of a lot of people who don't take the time to spellcheck posts, but obviously if you are then I'd be unfair to criticise. Sounds like a very similar build to the one I had, an X2 4200+ and a Zalman CNPS7000...
Worse dyslexia+dyspraxia I is screwed... LOL be thankful Firefox's puny spellchecker picks out what it dose Missing a word or 2 is normal for me..well..missing...and mispelled...and... LOL its a wonder I do do this http://www.youtube.com/user/Zippydastrange or http://zippydsmlee.wordpress.com/2008/09/21/skins-alive/ without dividing by zero and ending the world...or bearing the wrath of the net when asking how to do this stuff... LOL gaa I haz burned out my welcome at some modding forums

For the last couple of eyars I have been writing heavily on and off to try and understand how my brain/mind combo handles information nd organization. Resulting in me working on something I have tried to put to paper for the last 20 years or so. http://zippydsmlee.wordpress.com/writing-and-wutbits/new-synopsisxxxx09-mini-version/ I wrote out a couple chapters for the beginning and put them on my DA page, as I have been musing and developing it and working on various other limited one shot story ideas I have found a some of the issues I have in writing besides a vague sense my grammar/spelling is kaput I like the ramble when I write which makes the expositive style of writing I lean to that much more messy/draggy. Oh I got a couple commissions going of my characters, I can shoot you some links to it and the chapters if you are interested my creative skills are like manure it sticks but has potential
