I think I'm going insane. My computer has made a lot of noise for some time - I thought it was a fan that made the noise, but when, over the past few days, it got really loud and kind of scary sounding (think a small jet engine - with a rattle), I made dh look at it. he checked out the fans and doesn't think it's them. What he does think is that it's the hard drive. The good news is it didn't crash and I went out today and got a new one (twice the memory!) and dh will put it in tonight. The bad news is I can't use my computer. And I can't use dh's computer because he thinks it has a virus that makes it shut down - not for him, though, just me, I think! So I came down here to the basement computer (doesn't everyone have 1 or 2 more computers than people?) But this computer has no mail set up and an ergonomic keyboard that is driving me insane. And it's slow. And the screen resolution is not what mine was, so I'm getting that space on the right of the screen and the font is so small, I can hardly read what I'm typing. Don't ask why I don't make the font bigger right away - I'm stubborn and can't break myself of the habit of doing the post, then highlighting and changing the font/color/size of the whole post. Which I will do now.....
So, anyway, I'm using this annoying thing only when the withdrawal pains get to be too much. And, since I've gotten enough of a fix, and because I have to put something into the crockpot, I'll be going. Wish my dh luck in getting the hard drive in without problems and that it will solve my problem with the noise, and I hope to be back on my own (hopefully quiet) computer tonight or tomorrow.









Love modern technology but hate what happens when it goes bad ::sigh::
Understand on having more than one (TG)
Will keep my fingers & toes crossed DH figures out what's wrong very soon.
Luckily you do have another to get that fix
We'd be lost otherwise now wouldn't we, LOL
Let us know how it goes when you can :)

Hi Heidi, great to see you again.
Well for sure, our lives are run by computers!
Things are going better now.

I had that happen once with the pixs so from that point on I do two things:
