I just wanted to let you know that for 3 days my internet service was down due to high winds. Also my computer wasn't crashing I pulled  my tower out a little from the wall to clean behind it and the power cord on the back of the tower came loose Lol.


Didn't I tell ya I knew nothing about computers?


                              I think I'm back, Hugs to all Cindi

Hi Cindi


Well high winds will sometimes cause internet to be lots and with all the storms that have been in your area I am not surprised.


Well since you have not had a pc before in your home easy to not realize that something like a loose power cord would be causing the problem. Now you know if it happens again to check that first.


Glad you are back.


HUGS

LOL Cindi- I think this must happen far more than most people would admit because the first thing the tech team always asks is "Is your computer plugged in?"

Glad I'm back, I really miss chat. It gets lonely around here in the morning with my dh sleeping. Only so much one can clean have to be quiet.

You're right because that's exactly what they asked me LOL. At least I'm slowly learning about computers.

LOL Cindi! At least you now know where to start if your computer is not working.


Another thing to always check before you call tech support
