Grrrrr.
I had an entry that I was working on and just as I was about to hit Save and Edit, my computer monitor screen went black. The power button was red too - something I had never seen before.
I called Gateway, since I have lifetime phone technical support and they walked me through a few things.
We determined that it was NOT the monitor. And since my computer runs Windows 98 and is OLD, the tech thought it was probably the mother board.
He put me on hold to see if there was anything else we could try, then informed me that he was wrong. Even though it's an old computer, it does have a video card. He said that he's 99% sure it's the video card, which is only a $65 cost as opposed to a new mother board - or, more likely a new computer since that expense would be too great to put into this 'ol thing.
So I'm on hubby's computer right now.
What I was writing about was my doctor's appointment today. It was just a routine exam so that I could get my meds all filled. So, there's nothing to worry about. 
Well, except for the health of my computer. You CAN worry about that.  |
