So glad you got to save all your stuff, that's the most important thing. You might want to save any photos onto disc.

Awwwwww, I'm sorry to hear you're having this problem, my friend. Still, a laptop's better than being left with nothing and it doesn't matter if you're slower getting around than usual, as long as you haven't disappeared altogether. Brightest Blessings, my dear friend, in the hope that you get up and running again, soon. xxx

Sometimes that's not a bad thing, with all the spam and forwards that fly about. It makes Mylot a bit awkward, but I'm sure you can get by for a while, with your determination, my friend. xxx

Sorry to hear about your burned out mother board. It is really a downer when our computers bite the big one. We had to replace most of the parts on mine a couple of months ago and decided to buy a new system instead. David salvaged what we could for parts...to the touch of $750.00. So I am in real empathy with what you are going through...not fun! Hopefully you will get it back sooner and you won't have to frick/frack much longer. Do the best you can...we miss you whenever you are not here. Hugs and a wish for big $$$$$$$ sign to head your way. Go to the casino and win a big one! Cheers, Raia

How annoying!. Sorry to hear about it. You wait all that time and then it still isn't right. Too bad David the expert computer tech guy didn't live closer he said for a friend like you he would have dropped over and done what he could free of charge. After having to put out money on your computer and everything else straining your budgets there I can appreciate that the casino is not an option right now. Hopefully soon. I sent you an e-mail giving you a fuller update and will chat when we get back from Winnipeg either late tomorrow evening. Take care. Raia Raia

I just ran your problem by David and he says his best suggestion is to take it back to the dealer and have them address it. It is their job to fix...and having to turn it off and on is an annoyance you shouldn't have to put up with. Good luck with it. Raia
