Power cycle caused power surge setting the computer into fuckyou mode, nine in the morning Monday, May 9... Spent the next five hours trying to set the computer to work, work on itself, reset to an earlier day, May 7.. May 6, May 4... None worked.. Shut the computer off.. Turned on, went to safe mode with networking, was able to get it to go.. Made strides to make it go, sent back to regular mode.. upon this move the sign in screen showed, entered the standard password, computer moved to opening screen then went to the dreaded blue screen of death and error dump screen, this would go on for the next ten minutes until it was clear this is what it will do.. Hopeless, I open moms computer up, search for what to do.. start with step one, buy a gun get ready to shoot computer.. but first... try to get the computer to fix itself again, running repair, this fails very well yet again.. Final option, full reboot.. Off load what files I can then start reboot to square zero.. Full reboot.. Starts at three in the afternoon, by four the computer is fresh, like brand new only with the keyboard that takes a lot of guessing which letter is what... Here we go, reload time.. **DELETE MCAFEE SHIT SECURITY**** Then add Vipre... Otherwise it will be like eating the banana then trying to peal it.. No fun, tastes like shit... Talk to someone about what windows ten is like, maybe upgrade to ten (GWX) but first all updates are in, .NET framework is enabled Paint.NET installed and everything therein is copacetic, thinking now is windows ten necessary.. Starting research on weather windows ten is needed, or wanted... Will everything work that I find necessary to change to ten.. Have six weeks left until the free offer expires.. In my experience, getting things like this is a crapshoot.. The one thing I worry about is will it install correctly, will our internet keep running long enough to get it.. Getting it now and installing as if a fresh slate because I have very few programs reinstalled again might be the time to do it, is NOW and not much later than the end of this month.. Programs that must work there are Movie maker, Paint.NET, the Adobes (Image Ready and Photoshop) And of course the most important of them all.. SCRABBLE...
Bugger all...
