Sorry Cesare and Dx but really; read what you have both written to a confessed novice and see if you still think your replies were suitable and helpful. I hope somebody gives her some genuine help soon....

these are the most basic things to know when it comes to a pc....google contains all answers...it aint brain science nor is this a trolling thread...appology accepted

No apology given.......

Given that the OP was back in March & that they eventually stated they just wanted someone to fix it, I would hope they've managed to do it by now.

Can I suggest anyone posting in Technical Support should expect a reply trying to offer support, and it is often difficult to know what level of competence the OP has as to where to pitch the level of support. It is also highly dependent on receiving as much useful information from the OP as possible to assist with diagnosis - see the sticky at the top of the Tech Support section for guidelines. If the query' Where is it' or 'Where are you' is asked it is generally to see if you're local to the techie ...this is to gauge whether they should offer to take on the job themselves, or pass you on to/recommend someone more local to you.

If you simply want to find someone to fix the problem you're probably easier posting in or searching the Recommendations forum, or look up the relevant section of the Caithness Business Index.

No apology given.......

Note to self: Keep your nose out of it: you are too old and know you have an atrocious memory to even think of keeping up with those younger than yourself.

Note to Cesare: my brain tends to either run ahead of me or goes to sleep in the middle of something; the apology stands......sincerely!
