Have you tried a hammer? I have always found that it fixes most things....I'll stay in touch via the drone overhead until you get the machine back anyway Doug :-)
lol....It's very frustrating, Iri Ani with the slowness of computer repair. Because of the bad economy they are backed up at the store I trusted to so the work...Can't blame them.
Yeah, I felt the same way, but I got a call this morning, Chuck, and the repair guy got the thing fixed. There was a three-day backlog which I knew about but I didn't want to take it to some shop where I didn't have a prior background with. The service staff at "Hammer and Chisel" are experts at the delicate 'mallet and blowtorch' work needed for the older computer.
In hindsight, I probably shouldn't have bought a PC made in Albania.
Right now by the time I get on here Doug, I am off as I have to format this wireless as it's so slow. Yet thank you for the comments and I am taking some time to just visit a few. And then it's back to a regime which I made a choice with. Again thanks there Doug.
oh oh...hope it gets fixed for you Doug, Its hard to be without our best friends anymore...lol
ReplyDeleteThank god you don't have a "hammer and sickle" shop... or you can bet it would come back loaded with spyware.

ReplyDeleteThanks Marty. The "home office" is still down...waiting to hear back from the shop.
ReplyDeletelol...along with the FBI, those were the original tech support guys...they usually did their best work on foreign embassies.
ReplyDeleteThanks Will.
ReplyDeleteI must add your suggestion to my ongoing "mission statement". ;-)

ReplyDeleteThank you Iri Ani.
ReplyDeleteThanks Jack. I'm on temp status here until I get mine fixed.
ReplyDeleteI have an "Irish Screwdriver" for PC systems on order in case of the worst, AA.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the "welcome drone" (Did you get a that nifty joint-leasing deal from Homeland Security Chief Janet Napolitano?)
I did notice some extra rotor noises over the house. ;-)
I have a nice big mallet I could lend you!

ReplyDeleteYeow!
You must have had a problem more serious than I had thought.

ReplyDeleteI'll make a note of that, just in case I'm ever in Balkans neighborhood.
You'll thank me later. Avoid street vendors in Tirana especially.
ReplyDeleteHooray!!
ReplyDeleteThanks Iri Ani.
