Dashboard Monkey

New laptop, and Dell sucks.

So I barter with my brother for his Dell Inspirion 8600.

So now my audio problem is solved. Much better/faster machine, even dual heads!

So I order a new dock and stand. Everything looks great and plug it in and....

It doesnt' work. Gives me an error saying that the AC adapter isn't big enough. Apparently it communicates on a 3rd pin.

This is pretty annoying. I don't mind so much picking up the bigger AC adapter, but unless I can extract one of those chips out of an adapter and can get it to work, using a Carnetix (Which I've been thinking a lot about) is out.

There's a setting to ignore those problems in the BIOS, but it doesn't have any effect.

Always something stupid tripping me up.
