Computer Problems

A sad turn of events yesterday for Harry’s computer….for the past week, at least, he’s been having an issue with it. He’ll be surfing the net, or reading some webpage, and all of a sudden it shuts itself off and we get that “this computer was not shut off correctly” message, and then the option to start windows normally or in safe mode. And a couple times it’s all of a sudden gone to this blue screen with lots of computer lingo basically saying the computer has crashed and then it restarts itself. Well, it did it again last night, which makes 5 times since Harry got the computer on June 15th. So he’s decided to return it to Newegg for replacement. We hope – he called the Newegg person to get a return authorization code, and he was told that they have to be able to duplicate the issue or they will return the computer to him. That is the craziest thing I’ve ever heard – why on earth would he make that up? Just for the joy of repacking the computer up and sending it back to them? So now, some Newegg guy has to surf the web for a few hours to see if the computer all of a sudden shuts itself down or does the nice blue screen crash thing. Let’s just hope it performs on cue – it’s happened quite a few times already so hopefully it will do it again for them. No pictures last night – it was so sad to watch the removing of all the computer programs, and all the reversal of the set-up and additions of the last two weeks. :(

And – no calls yet for the truck…maybe today…
