The ongoing saga of my computer

The ongoing saga of my computer

Since I last blogged and I thought my computer was ok again, apparently it was not and it lasted a couple of hours before packing up again.

Yesterday, I got in touch with a computer firm and an engineer came out to have a look at my machine. Initially he thought it might be the graphic card, and took away my tower for diagnosis.

This morning when I phoned he told me it is the motherboard which has packed up. So, today he is going to look for a secondhand one or get a new one. He has given me an estimate of £70 for the work.

I am not using the time constructively, ie, cleaning the house which is in a mess. Rather I am watching such as Bargain Hunt, Flog It, Houses Under The Hammer, and the news.

John, you should set up a paypal account and make the blog self funding.

Well at least he has got to the bottom of the problem.
