Apparently my custom build PC is having teething problems.

It was built brand new in September or October. I saved up money for the new desktop for over 2 years.

I had to learn how to use Windows 10 after being used to 7.

Earlier this month, my computer wouldn't boot up because the BIOS needed an update. My tech friend took care of that, but I had to wait one week for her because of her class exams.

Then there was an entire day of no Internet due to the weather.

Now my hard drive bit the dust. I had transferred it over to the new one from my old desktop.

Only reason why I still have a functioning computer at all is because I got a SSD when I custom built my new desktop so I could put the OS on it and keep everything else separate on a hard drive.

Ugh. I had to order a new HDD, and because of the holidays, it's a big question mark on when the replacement is going to arrive.

Plus the cost of replacing said hard drive totally blew my budget as well.
