O/T - PC Malfunctions

Ray,
I tend to agree with Eric. While I don’t have a ton of experience at repairing computer hardware, I do belong to a few computer related yahoo groups and read about other people’s problems all the time, in order to keep my computers from getting to that point. Just like our fish tanks, […]

O/T - PC Malfunctions

YEah…that’s what it sounds like…especially if you fire something up that either uses a lot of processor is is very graphical. The bearings in fans go bad. They are pretty easy to replace as they are usually situated on top of heat sinks. If you don;t have any computer stores near you, […]

Yep, You KNOW I’ve had my ‘puter freeze up right when I’m about to hit (or had hit) Send — more times than you care to know. I occassionally (but too rarely) get to save it if I can get to, and manage to activate Send Later.. Then at least I can go […]

And then there is always the PROBLEM or threat, when typing a long reply in an online forum and you hit the send button and the dang website freezes, or due to Adobe Flash Ads, IE freezes up, or worse case scenario, your computer freezes up and you lose your LONG REPLY. At least […]

Ray,
There are time constraints I mentioned earlier. When I get home in the evening, having already worked a 10-14 hour day, I have about 2 hours to go through the +/-200 messages waiting. A lot of the message I get are not easy reads, jokes and stuff like that, but do take some time […]
