My pc went to that big junk yard in the sky about a month ago and since then I have been negotiating for a new one. Man,they are expensive! May have to sell my first born. Anyhow, my new machine should arrive in a week and for the moment I'm using a friend's. I am needing help with passion flowers but will post on the proper thread. Nice to be back.

I'm sorry about your computer......I know how expensive they can be, mine is on it's last legs and I've been looking around. It'll be great to finally have a new one though.

Mine is fixin' to go to the front yard via the big picture window beside my desk!

I have a new one, never been taken out of the box, but it has XP :p ...which I hate with a passion!
Guess I'm gonna have to suck it up and get that bad boy hooked up, and try to get along with XP!

Hope to see you posting!

What had happened to your computer???
Just outta curiousity?

Alot of times when a computer slows down
or acts funny, there could be many problems
to your ole puter....

*Like cleaning out cookies
*Cleaning out temporary internet files
*Not having too many "icons" on your computer
screens... when you have so many on the desktop,
they are all running, and slows stuff down..
*Not using things like "Spybot" "Adware" "Search and Destroy" things on your puter to get rid of bugs and things like search engines...
*even having a camera or scanner or something downloaded into your computer.....then getting a new one and you don't properly delete the first one and things start to act up inside..

Sooooooooooo many things are possible...
(*Not that I am computer literate, but I hear my hubby talking about all that stuff...*)

But, it's good to see you back on Joseph!!!!

Ever consider using Linux?

I dumped Windows 2 years ago and went to using Linux full time.

I don't have to worry about Spyware, Virus's, Spam, defraging, and all the other little nasties out there.

I dropped my spam to zero, I haven't gotten spam in months.

I also setup an Pentium I as a network firewall. I write software for my firewall as a hobby.
