makes AMD programmers look lazy????OMFG,...Best spin of the year so far.
looks like the AMD programmers did their part in helping clean up that gene pool thing.
Erm... Error trapping is standard. If my little brother at 15 could do better error trapping, that really says something.
And alike I said before, I didn't expect it to do anything, I just figured if it did that would be pretty cool. But as I said before I didn't know it was an AMD only issue either. I was under the belief from the few quick boards I read on its release that is was a problem for both, and AMD just wrote a fix. People were asking if it worked for Intel chips, nobody replied with anything. I figured what the heh, I can give it a shot it's not a big deal no matter what happens.
There was no stupidity in this at all. Something just went wrong, figured I would tell people so hopefully not too many other people said "fine I'll just try it myself", and turned out to be that the patch has poor programming end of story, and it does have poor programming.
It wouldn't be so funny if you have an intel computer and you had a few kids and one of them got told by his buddy who has an AMD system to install this patch and it will make your computer run faster, and your kid did it, and boom snap your system wont boot...
Doesn't sound so meaningless any funny anymore does it?
Better yet add to it, make it something a little more serious, you rely on your computer for work, and need it to do your work and it happened. Take it a step further and say you don't know how to edit your registry from a command prompt. Okay have fun with the Geek Squad at $90 an hour for the next 8 hours while they ponder on how to make this work.. End up backing up your data and reinstalling windows.
Now a few lines of code really doesn't look so stupid, and *you should know better*.
Think beyond yourself, you will see something.
