Going awol

Post by Rob Harknett »

My computer decided pack up beyond repair last night. I dug out an old 20th century comp. and managed to get it somewhat functional. Untill I get a replacement compt. I will not receive any e mails via any of my e mails addresses. Unless I can sort out a connection easily.

Have you checked your Parts List, Rob? Club spares may have one.

True. Essential to confirm the age by getting the mainframe dated. Of course it might just be an incompatible driver and/or insufficient memory.

Hey not so much of it. The computer I'm using is post war, it was great last century when it was new. At least it still goes, although it takes ages to start up and open a page. ars broke down as well now so I cant go and get a new computer.

Just check the valves Rob, see which one isn't glowing..
Top tip - if it needs more than 2 bolts to hold it on, its probably important...
