Why is it with all the technology, my shipment that is to be delivered today shows that it left the UPS warehouse at 6:20am and here it is at 4:48pm and nothing. I'm pretty sure that they guy does not just drive around haphazardly, but has a route he follows.
Where is my shit?
You would think they could get a more accurate delivery time than "sometime today".

Denver Broncos Recievers
What were Broncos practices like before Peyton Manning? Everyone splits into their individual groups, and the receivers all run over to the receivers coach and ask, "Hey coach, what are we working on today?" And then the receivers coach looks over and sees Tim Tebow launching footballs into the fourth row and says, "I really don't think it matters, boys."

Rebuilding Windows 7 on HP
UPDATE ON
The Digital River site is no longer up to get the .iso files. I'll post a new entry when I find the .iso's on-line. Check more recently in the blog for new links.
UPDATE OFF
The kids computer took a header a week back. Would only boot some diagnostics screens and everything checked out, but would not boot. I have backups, so it was time to reformat and restore.
I have a HP Pavilion and it came with a hidden partition with Windows 7 to recover from.
Seemed pretty straight forward until when it rebooted to finish installing Windows I got the blue screen of death (BSOD). Tried a couple more times to reboot, no luck.
Investigating the BSOD, it appears that there is some issue on the factory image that the drivers for Nvidia do not work. There are some posts on the internet about deleting a Nvidia file to get it to get past the BSOD, but I could not get a DOS prompt.
To make a long story short, I ended up installing Windows XP to get it to boot as that was the only DVD I had. I had assumed that the extra partition with Windows 7 would allow me to restore, but since it did not, I had to get something up and running.
My next quest was to find a Windows 7 distribution to download to get back to Windows 7. Found one here that worked.

That is Windows Home Premium 64 bit distribution.
If you want some others look here.

You will still need a key to activate, but at least you can get a DVD.
