It's good to be back!

My computer was not working . I had to get a new monitor today for it. Glad to have it back. I was going into withdrawal. You don't know how much I missed it.
I use my computer for my embroidery machine and have to transfer pattern from my computer to my cards to put in my machine. I have things for Christmas I want to do.
The days here are so nice this time of year 60's and 70's Just love it. If only it would stay that way all winter!

Computer problems are the pits aren't they? Mine's been acting wonky too. The screen would go black so I'd shut it off & when I turned it back on it would just beep at me. Did research & found it could be the graphics card, bad RAM memory or even the processor. Took out the add-on graphics card & hooked up the monitor to the built-in graphics. Worked, so threw add-on card in trash. Left it running for a while, same problem. Rescued add-on card from trash, will it work again? Hard telling. Took out RAM, polished contacts on t-shirt, reinstalled. Also took cover off of processor heat sink, very dusty. Blew off and brushed off dust. Everything worked & kept working after it ran for several hours. Now my best guess is that it was overheating because of all the dust & I probably ruined a perfectly good add-on graphics card by tossing it in the trash. I'm just thankful I have my laptop!! Glad to have you back.
