and me being the non computer geek couldn’t figure out how to fix it so I reset it back to factory specs. Now I sit here trying to download all my World of Warcraft stuff and other doo dads I had on here before it crashed. I hate computers!
I had to do the same thing with iTunes decided to convert every mp3 file to iTunes format…. somehow that makes the computer crash. Sigh.
It completely sucks I know. Makes you feel like this – 😈
Thank god I was smart enough to back up all my pictures onto an external hard drive so at least I didn’t lose them. I’m still trying to get everything straight on this stupid computer. Blah!
Computers… it’s a love/hate relationship and right now, you’re in the “hate” part.
A friend told me this once and it stuck!
Read my books! Volume 1 and 2 of A Dragon Medley are available now.

http://www.sarahjestin.com/feedbacklists.htmEvery time I have computer problems I always remember a Dilbert comic strip that ran in the newspaper while I was working there.
I laughed so hard at that (because I had gotten the same answer from tech before when having problems) that I made sure to keep a copy of it.
Just be thankful you only deal with one on a daily basis. Or maybe two, one at work and one at home. OK.. maybe three, if you own a laptop. 😉
When I worked at the newspaper I did some tech support of my own for the editorial/design side because there was no local tech support. They were all two hours away and rarely worked the hours we needed support. Most of what I did though was run error check and defrag the harddrives on a regular basis.
*Ugh* I still remember when I was trying to defrag one of our servers. I had to do it after the paper was finished for the night (so couldn’t start until midnight at the earliest). Near as I could tell it had never been run. It took ages before it finally finished the program. I had to restart the defrag over the course of several days because I had to go home and get sleep and there was no guarentee I would be the first person in to restart the server and I couldn’t trust anyone else to do it.
I’m waiting for a couple metal pieces so I can build another server today. It’s job is to collect numbers. That’s it.
Good luck, purpledoggy. I’m glad you didn’t lose your pictures!
pegasi1978–I love that comic! There’s days I really wanna… 😳
