Our computer, which has struggled ever since getting hit with a virus a month or so ago, is on its last leg.\u00a0 At least the hard drive, or the good folks at HP say.\u00a0 I\u2019m not entirely convinced, but being a novice tech fellow, I have no choice.\u00a0 Like a person with no knowledge of cars at a garage.\u00a0 An error 303 came up, and the HP folks said that was it, dead hard drive.\u00a0 The computer wouldn\u2019t reboot and simply sat idling.\u00a0 So we ordered a new hard drive.\u00a0 Then at around 3:00 AM last night, bang!\u00a0 It came on.\u00a0 It keeps freezing, but so far reboots have worked.\u00a0 Still, the HP folks (the ones who sold me the hard drive) insist there\u2019s nothing else we can do.\u00a0 They said there is no other repair options, and continuing to use it could lead to worse results.\u00a0 Don\u2019t know.\u00a0 But right now, as if blogging wasn\u2019t scarce enough, I have one more thing to keep me from using this thing too much.\u00a0 Sad part is, I don\u2019t know we\u2019ll be able to get all the programs over to a new hard drive.\u00a0 Pray to whatever saint is the patron saint of technology.\u00a0 Tune in to see what happens.\u00a0 Any suggestions, and I\u2019m all ears. <\/p>\n<\/body><\/html>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
