So I Upgraded To Windows 7…

…and broke my Internet connection. Fortunately, I have a laptop that can use to share its Internet with my computer so that’s a workaround for now. Obviously, it would be preferable if I could find a way to make my PC be the one doing the sharing—which is how it was set up before, by the way—but we’ll just have to wait and see how that will turn out later on. For now, I’m still in the process of rebuilding my installations. Mass Effect 2 and Dragon Age are both out of commission. WoW is fully functional, thanks to it being able to run simply by existing in my hard drive.

Update: I wrote the top part of this post at 1:58 PM today. It is now 5:25 PM. The Internet problem has been resolved thanks to a call to my ISP. I then found out that I also lost my wireless connection, which I solved around 30 minutes later. Mass Effect 2 is currently installing. Dragon Age will be next. After that, I’m as good as new. To be honest, I was not looking forward to spending the weekend fixing my computer problems but for a while back there I thought that it was the reality that I was going to face. Disaster averted. I’m not looking forward to Microsoft’s next OS release.

Speaking of that, I wonder where I put my Office 2007 installer…
