Hi, Tech! Or, How IT Can Stop The World
Scarcely half an hour after the last update on this page, my trusty
PC started giving me the runaround. To cut a long story short, it has
taken me a fortnight to get the bastard straightened out, and time alone
will tell whether it'll behave itself in the long term.
I thought that it was children who were supposed to go
through the 'terrible twos'?
I can't claim a great deal of technical insight for the final
resolution of the problems (which involved 0E errors, sudden power-offs
and all sorts of wacky events). I don't think that I would be up and
running even now if I hadn't inadvertently erased the boot files on the
hard drive - meaning that I had to reformat the drive for the third
time in ten days.
I blame Bill Gates. Well, I mean, everybody else does.
