Today [11]

Well after an iffy start my Notebook is now running with 8GB of RAM. I'm feeling very pleased with myself, although a little foolish.

I put the new stick in but it wasn't recognised, did it again and the same, still showing just 4GB installed. Opened the machine up again and looked, the light bulb went on then I hadn't pushed it fully into place.

Turn on, yippee 8GB of RAM installed, what makes me laugh though was when I had 4GB I had a score of 4.4 because of the desktop graphics, everything else was high up in the 5 score. Now I have 8GB the memory has gone up to 7.9 the others are still 5+ but the graphics are now down to 4

I'm happy though that I managed to do it myself and not have to get my son-in-law to do it, he's the tech.

I told you . . . anyone who can cross-stitch like you would be able to installl the RAM! Well done!!

Thanks, although I don't think the two have that much in common, apart from being nimble with my fingers.
I'll agree with what someone said that I would feel very proud of doing it, mind I think it's probably the easiest upgrade you can do so that's OK.

Next step....Joan opens computer repair shop out of garage!

Congrats Joan, great work

We'll make a tech out of you yet.

Thanks Dave.

Congrats Joan on getting the new RAM installed! I am impressed! None of my sisters would even attempt to do something like that.

Oh I'm sure they would if pushed, if this granny can they can I'm sure.,

satisfying isnt it joan. its nice when you get that feeling of accomplishment

Oh yes it is, I was surprised how easy it was, well after the light bulb went on it was.

Congratulations Joan. Great job.

Thank you Shawn.

Well done, Joan.

The home page was changed my accident, but I managed to change it back by using system restore.

Any reason you chose to do System Restore? Seems a little overkill to me for what should be a 30 second job. We've even got a tutorial on it

http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorial...lorer-home-page-specify-prevent-changing.html

Yes, I had to use system restore as if you try another way it needed a password which I did not have to hand.

What requires a password that isn't also required for System Restore?

You could not get to Tools>Internet Options? There is no password for that on any browser.

But Kari,

That notorius Pirate in Somalia retired this week

:roflmao:

A new member, again one of these *****s openly telling he wants to get a $1100 rig but is not willing to pay $100 for Windows 7, asking how to get it pirated.

I have absolutely no nill nada zip understanding for that. I can imagine them going to Facebook asking advice:

Taking my girlfriend to dinner, will cost me $110 already, so I do not want to pay additional $10 for that cheap wine she likes. Anyone here know how to sneak in to storage rooms of that restaurant so I could steal the wine?

Hello from Kuala Lumpur. 6 hour stopover, and then a 7 hour flight to Adelaide. It sure is easy travelling without the wife and kids.....they are spending an extra week in the UK.

 

[A Guy]

So...a whirlwind tour of the sites in Kuala Lumpur? Sample the famous Kuala Lumpur foods? Kuala Lumpur museums?

Bad news: The hospital has got no beds again and if they cannot have my dad in this time, we will have to leave it until March.

Hi Carl ,That's not very good news , Do you have a choice of which hospital you can use , I live on the border of Nottinghamshire/ Derbyshire, we are able to select which Hospital we prefer to go to either The Queens Med in Nottingham or the Royal Hospital in Derby ,If no beds available at 1 we go to the other instead

Today, just a typical Sunday.....with a little thing called MORE SNOW that I have to clean up

 

[Carl Lawrence]

Good news: They have a bed for him now (hopefully) and they are going there now (possibly already arrived). The thing is that Brighton Hospital only does this operation, if the Conquest did it as well then it will be a different situation. Anyway, Mum and Dad will ring me from the hospital a bit later and I will update you a bit later.
