The Desktop Computer

I know you're dying for an update on the desktop computer I destroyed. The saga continues....on Tuesday spouse took the computer to work and had a friend look at it. Within ten minutes, Sami had it up and running - the CMOS became confused when I attempted to add the RAM and forgot its settings.

"So, did Sami add the RAM?"
Spouse: "No. Did you want him to?"
"Well, that is what started it. I need more RAM, especially as I'm working on photos."
Spouse: "Okay, I'll ask him. I'm sure it's no big deal."

Well, Sami had already left for the day, so it had to wait til Wednesday. Wednesday arrived and Sami didn't. He'd taken a day off. Thursday arrived and Sami didn't have time. By now I'm feeling awkward about asking Sami to add the RAM. Afterall, he did get it up and running and that was my original and sole request.

Spouse: "I'm sure he'll work on it tomorrow. Don't worry."
"I'm not worried. I just feel bad. I don't want to impose. If he doesn't get to it tomorrow, please bring it home. We'll just forget about the RAM."
Spouse: "You could try again, you know. You've added RAM, CDRWs, etc. to other computers."
"Uh yea, but this one's jinxed and I'm afraid of it now!"

So tomorrow will be the day. Either way, I'm just happy it's working, recognizing the hard drive (which has tons of photos on it and music) and I can synch my Palm i705 again. I'm like a week behind on my blog reading!! LOL
