My laptop is close to being 'fried'

Off Topic
  • Those were the terms used by our computer tech. :( Some stuff is not running, the hard drive is looking shaky, and the laptop is hitting a temp of 157 degrees. Darn, I hate getting new techie stuff - nothing is in the same place, etc.

    So, I may be away for a bit. I have to organize my files to make the data transfer as easy as possible. I have some new Kipawa pics to post, but that will have to wait.

    So, to all, see you soon! Will miss you - you are a great bunch of people!

  • Fran,
    i don't know if yours has the same problem as mine but for a few weeks mine has been closing down by itself and overheating. It usualy started again after a rest but eventualy it switched itself and refused to start. We took it to the pc clinic and all it needed was a good clean out, it was full of dust. Fortunately it seems fine now. I was so lost without it.

  • Fran, it could be nothing more than a cleaning and new fan… get a 2nd opinion.

  • Fran..know that we are waiting for your return…hope your computer issues gets solved easily and inexpensively...see you soon. :)

    Fran, your sister made you the perfect gift! That really is adorable. I know a couple of knitters, maybe I'll show them the photos…and beg!

    So, I guess I couldn't have seen you in my recent trip throught the city of flying pigs (for those unaware, there is one). Two hours of stop and go southbound, trying to get to the airport. I was in the backseat and looked at every truck on the off chance there might be an AJ sighting. Obviously, no luck, as you were a few time zones away :) Had I seen AJ, I might have jumped out of the car I was in and jumped into your truck for a couple of miles…just to say 'Hi'...that's how slow going it was. My advise, for north or southbound, take the by-pass...but what do I know? There were plenty of trucks willing to wade through the traffic.

    Something similar was at a big dog show in my area a few years ago. The one I ran my dog through had an A-frame and tunnels as well as the jumps and tire. It was a blast!

    I don't know of any Rita Jean. Mine was born Christmas Day which makes it easy to remember.

    @AJs: It's been a very long time since I read The Wizard of Oz. Is Wichita where the story starts? I googled "Dorothy's House Wichita" and nothing came up except ways to get to Liberal. That's where the house is that is advertised all over Kansas as THE Dorothy's House. From what I understand (and I have been wrong before…it could happen again) the house in Liberal is where they did some of the filming. But I love the Witch-ita reference...:D I think Dorthy's house was just considered to be a farm house "out in the middle of nowhere".

    Actually - I posted it on the Podengo group - lots of members in the area and looks like might be something from one of the hunt packs (or a golden GSD mix) Maybe one of them will bite.
