    Messed up my laptop

    Nah, it's been operating fine for years. This has been a sudden change regarding getting onto the internet. And it can still play videos from the hard drive and whatnot. Off internet stuff is fine. I'm guessing that there's a wifi hardware issue.

    Messed up my laptop

    I previously used Google Chrome as my browser, but I tried accessing a few websites with Edge and it's just as slow as it was when I used Chrome before. Not good.

    Sad news, everyone. My computer is still really, really slow getting onto the internet. The problem wasn't fixed. Still investigating.

    Messed up my laptop

    The computer is very busy in the background doing stuff. I'll leave it alone for awhile until it's done. The PC reset obviously removed all of the programs and other stuff I installed. Some of those I paid for. I'm not exactly sure what I'll do about that. The video editing software was pricey.

    Second system restore using a different restore point didn't work either. I'm doing a PC Reset now. It's the last resort before a big hammer and a new computer.

    Already tried that. Several times. It didn't work. :(

    I'm trying another system restore using even earlier restore point. 🤞

    Messed up my laptop

    I'm in real trouble now. During the restore, it stopped and said there is a problem with the device, so it ran repair... then said it can't be repaired. I'm going round and round with it and can't get anywhere. Definitely in trouble. Here's where I am. Again.

    1997 Mirrocraft 18' aluminum fish n ski

    No splash yesterday. The weather was cooler than predicted locally and breezy. I also had internet problems (now corrected), plus computer problems (still working on that) which required my attention. Serious cold fronts headed our way, which will be hitting us for the next couple of...

    Messed up my laptop

    I did check task Mgr, but nothing really stood out. The problem seems to be internet related. My other applications, including video editing software, are working normally. About an hour ago I started a system restore back to 15Jan25 and it's still working on that. I'll check on the Dell...

    Yeah, I've been planning on doing that before the Oct 25th Win 10 cutoff date. Funding for a new computer isn't available at the moment though.

    Messed up my laptop

    I periodically go through and delete the junk off my Dell e6500, Windows 10 with all the current updates. 64 bit, 8gb RAM and 500mb hard drive. It's old, but works okay. Sorta like an old truck. I'm posting this with my phone. Ugh. Anyway, this morning we had the cable/internet tech come...

    Maximum transom outboard weight for a 1994 14' Lund Laker?

    I'd recommend looking up the weights of 1994 2-stroke 35hp outboards and use that as a guide. That's what I've done with my boats.

    To splash, or not to splash; that is the question! :unsure: The boat has been essentially ready ever since I got it back from my buddy months ago. However, I didn't want to splash it without the trolling motor and Power Poles installed. Those are both done, as well as the onboard charger...

    1997 Mirrocraft 18' aluminum fish n ski

    I went out to the garage on this very cold morning, turned on the heat and got to work. The goal was to vacuum the interior and get the trolling motor batteries strapped together. I was only out there a little while when my wife came out and volunteered to finish the vacuuming, which was nice...
