Hi group!!
Well, I'm back........
I've been having lots of problems the past week or two....unable to
download anything, bad IE screens, etc. I finally decided that WinXP
must have had some corrupted files and it was time to reload. Since
this computer was due to become a server at the end of the year,
Tuesday night I had my computer guru over and we decided to tear down
the current computer and move parts to another newer unused computer.
Surgery was done late Tuesday and Wednesday morning I loaded
software........only to find I had the same problem!! I finally
determined that the problem was not Windows, but my router which was
7-8 years old <mega frustration!!!>. I bought a new DSL router (8
port this time) and started loading software again. The next little
bug was my modem was different and for some reason the paging software
I use for the fire department and WinFax wouldn't work -- fixed that
by swapping modems (good thing I have lots of parts here).
Additionally, I could not send E-Mail!!! I could receive but not
send. After much fiddling around, I finally found out that my phone
company had changed my ISP connection for outgoing
mail...........GRRRRRRRRR >:~[
All is fixed now and I am running a 1.8 gigHz P4 with 512 meg DDR RAM
and three HDs with 150 gig total space. Not bad for free huh!!?! At
Christmas I plan buy a new super fast computer and this one will
become a server.
Bottom line, I'm back and everything is running just fine. If I
missed anything important, please resend. I admit I dumped lots of
mail without reading because I simply didn't have time to catch up to
the weeks total e-mail. now I'll hit the books again........the EMT-B
class is intense as it's an accelerated class.
