This has not been a very good week for me.  First, my desktop PC stopped working.  Won’t turn on.  Seems like a burnt out motherboard, but this would be the second time in a month that I’d have to replace that.  I think there’s something wrong with the power supply, and it busted both motherboards for me.  I think I may be adding BFG to the list of manufacturers whose products I won’t be purchasing again.

This morning, I went to turn on my TV, and it just turned itself off after a couple seconds.  It’s an Olevia 337H 37″ LCD.  TV won’t turn on at all now.  From what I read on various forums and such online, it probably needs it’s mainboard replaced.  I can’t talk to Olevia’s tech support to try and get it fixed until business hours on Monday.  So, I won’t be watching any TV this weekend.  Not that there’s anything on, mind you, but I just got Heroes season 1 on DVD and I’ve been itching to watch it.  I’ve got a tiny 14″ TV in storage, but it just wouldn’t do the show justice.  Gotta watch it on a nice widescreen TV in high def.

Late last year and early this year, when Olevia’s TVs first started selling like crazy ’cause of their low prices, their customer support and tech support got flooded with requests, and apparently was really slow at fulfilling them.  I really hope that’s improved by now.  I don’t want to have to wait more than a week or two to start watching a decent TV again.  I really hope I have it working by the time Heroes season 2 starts up.
