lol.
time for the World Series. have a great one all.
Nope, time to cook!
Where's Frannie???
TTFN
Contemplating a new computer. Not at this time. If necessary I can use my laptop.
Your old one looked fine.
Maybe just restore the OS??? Do a fresh install? Save any data on a backup first though.
They have "computer stores" that can do this for you. A "fresh system". A lot cheaper than a new one if the tech is still up to date.
Just a thought.

Hi snails.
hiya, atty!
frannie, did you get system discs with that? or were you supposed to make your own?
~ $100 should get it done in a store and they might have what you need

Well, you have to have license info first and....it's a bit complicated to explain. The system restore may have an option to put it back to "factory settings". This kind of stuff varies by PC a bit (many have a restore partition. You'd also need any upgrade CD's or files or licenses for stuff purchased afterwards).
Basically, it's not something I'm comfortable helping with since I can't see your screen and don't have all the up-to-date stuff like a computer store will.
If it's a software problem, and you talk to someone in person at a computer store and bring it in, they may be able to help you (check their reputation first online).
But, if there's a hardware problem of some kind, you'd still be unhappy after paying them $$$$.
My guess is the hardware is OK and the software is messed up. But there's a lot of upgrades to install and ....well...you'd want a very fast connection to do that too.
Best to either decide to "take it in" or decide to get a new one (donate the old one to charity/family, or sell it, after removing the disk drives...don't let it just collect dust and get old.)

No discs. Have no idea what I need.
It's probably a "restore partition" that you access during the boot process...like F10 or something during boot (keystroke varies by system).
In all cases, back up first!!!!!
Goodnight Fran.
We have time to discuss and think about stuff.
