    Fix here, or go all in...

    Seriously though, it's easy to waste a lot of time and money on these kinds of restorations. How much of your life are you willing to give up to fix an old boat that won't be worth the money you put into it? Many people underestimate how long it will take to get their boats splashed after...

    Messed up my laptop

    As I said in post 23, it was the network adapter that failed. Hardware failure. But thanks.

    1997 Mirrocraft 18' aluminum fish n ski

    I had my first PT session this afternoon and I must say that it helped. I'm looking forward to the next 14 sessions and associated home exercise. I hope to be able to get to a gym to regain and increase strength and if very lucky, avoid replacing my knees altogether. 🤞

    Florida snow

    So, Milton got the all time record for Florida snow, 9.8" and that's a lot! The prior record was just 4 inches.

    My wife and I have used it for a dozen years and it works fine or us.

    Maybe when summer gets here? :LOL: Right now I just don't know for sure. The weather is supposed to break in another week or so. 🤷‍♂️

    Lost keys

    On my old Mercs, there is a letter code immediately beneath the key. It's small and really hard to read, but take a pic of it and zoom in and you might get lucky and find that there is one. Good luck!

    And we both remember when that was fast. 🤪

    Messed up my laptop

    Got my laptop back online. 😁 Went to Walmart and bought a Wi-Fi dongle, installed it, disabled the internal Wi-Fi adapter and bingo! Rockin' along again. :geek: A darn shame that I lost stuff, but that can be replaced. This is the normal speed for my ol' Dell. :cool:

    Messed up my laptop

    The internet is working great on all of our other devices, download speed of 650 meg and up at 11 meg. Good stuff. Over a terabyte at the interface outside. Just my laptop has the issue.

    Messed up my laptop

    Yah, that was done, but no joy. Today I'm going to buy a Wi-Fi dongle to see if that will work as a temporary fix. I have serious stuff to get done and it's difficult to do with just a phone. 🤞

    Messed up my laptop

    Found the problem. The network adapter has failed. All done. :cautious: I ordered a cheap, refurbished replacement laptop until such time that I can order a brand new shiny one. (y)

    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.

    Messed up my laptop

    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.
