*Now* it works

Finally! I went to exchange the graphics card today. The store was very friendly, they only asked me for five euros more when I exchanged the card that was not broken in any way into a different one, for basically it was all my fault I didn't get it right the first time. Well, my friend plugged the card in, we downloaded the driver, restarted the computer and tried the game - it works! And this time, no blockiness, no grayed out smooth edges, no nothing. And it is pretty and fast, yay!

So, now unless anything else breaks (*knocks on wood* Some bad luck I've had with it, but now it finally looks to be fine. *knocks again*), I should be all set. I think I know what I'm doing this weekend. :)

*dances in midst of confetti and sips champagne* Yay! I'm still slightly paranoid about something else breaking, but I think I'm good now. :)

Yay for finally getting a nice graphics card that won't break down at any time soon!

Lots of yay! I'm still slightly paranoid about something else yet possibly going wrong, but I think I'm good now. :)
