Thank you BRINK for your many years helping the Windows Crowd.

This Old Mans Thoughts at 75 years young.

To start I have been building my own desktops from early 1990's.

It all started as more of a curiosity on how computers worked and I was intrigued at what they did.

Now, this has never been related to my careers and just a hobby and never liked what companies offered for a desktop PC.

OK, yes I'm very old and have wondered and pondered over decades why everyone has major computer crashes.

Hardware usually are 100% reliable after using the 1st few days no matter what you have, CPU, fans, memory modules, video cards, etc.

I do know some companies have crappy drivers for their hardware but most of the time now that isn’t the case.

This leads me to believe that it's Operator Error (OE) as then install software and no understand the total concept in answering a few questions on the install being incorrect.

Being a MS Windows guy from it's Original conception I tend to believe most Window fresh installs have regular owners in mind that have no idea about anything related to the

install is except it takes a long time in their minds and hope that the ON button will solve all their problems instantly.

But, many seem to find those BLUE SCREENS of DEATH.

I always wonder to myself are these folks just trying beyond their capabilities or skill to install a automatic install?

Is their hardware that old that it's too slow to process data?

Have they ever opened up their case to see if the dust bunnies are taking over and jumping around and shorting the MB pin selection board?

I guess I will have to continue to wonder as it seems each new year brings the same issues to light.

Yes we are ALL here to help these misguided/lost soles and give them purpose by giving them a helping hand in hopes for a better computer life.


OK! LOL
That's enough rambling so let's get out there and continue to support and help all those heads of mush.
Have a great day!
