Thoughts from the T-Shirt Lady

I did call my computer geek to have him add more memory, as I mentioned in my last post. When I called, he told me he was already replacing the 256 memory chip on the motherboard with a 512 – since I didn’t need a new power pack, and the price was the same.

Also told him to add an internal modem – there is no place to plug in the cable from the external modem, as the motherboard external connections have been changed.

Took my pc to him on Monday- this is Thursday, and it’s still not done. He ran into a snag trying to update the windows xp os for the new motherboard, memory, etc. When I stopped in today to see if it was ready, he explained the problem that he was having and that the hard drive was getting very hot – this is the same harddrive that I have had since my original pc was upgraded. Probably would die soon, surprised that it hadn’t happened yet! So now we will add a new hard drive for the os – hopefully it will be done tomorrow.

Thank goodness I have my laptop – being without a pc for a week would give me grief – not being able to read and respond to email, write in my blog or conduct business – my gosh – withdrawal symptoms!

Of course, my DH keeps asking when it was going to be done – he likes to get on in the evenings, when I am watching my favorite tv shows – and searches for farm equipment, etc. Or he orders seeds and stuff!

Pray for tomorrow to get my pc back
