How well do you know your computer?

I know my computer pretty well but I'll admit there are still some things I could learn from it. Sometimes I'll be doing something on it and hit a button and all of a sudden I learned some kind of short cut trick. Are you very computer savvy with your computer?

Just when I get to feel really good about my computer, it has to go to the shop for repair and when it comes back it's never the same. I don't know what they do to it, but even if nothing new is added it seems changed. I think they have evil demons that they allow into the machine and then we bring them home.

You just may be right about that.

There is alot for me to learn, but I am slowly figuring it all out. I am constantly finding new things.

That is a very good question. I should say I don't know much about my computer except to press the keys on the keyboard. Even there , I still don't know what some of the keys are for, never used them.

I'm still kinda new to all this computer stuff. We share a computer and I'm always afraid of messing up something and deleting something of my boyfriends. I only do thinks that I know and I wait for him to teach me how to do other stuff.

Well for me I know when my computer has a problem, i know if it has a problem trough its response in every command. I use Deep Freeze to maintain it speed from the very beginning.

I've come across things like this some times. But I guess I know my very well. I don't realize it until someone like my dad will ask me something or try to show me something and I'm like I already know that or you can do this....but then again I practically lived on these things in college.

Personally i've built my last three computers, so it's kind of a hobby of mine and one that will always keep you in debt for the computer industry is so fast at coming out with the NEXT BEST THING. My computer serves me well and i have fun trying to work the firewall and networking, it's quite a fascination to me, even thou a lot of people would say to leave it to the experts. firewalls are important and it's nearly like having a savage dog that loves to eat virises and hoping that none will get past the gate.. Backup often because if you do have an error then you can always goto the menu and goto system features and press restore but don't worry because there will always be a message stating "ARE YOU SURE?" just in case you believe you didn't need to restore it. and turning back one or two days might mean reinstalling one or two programs again just as if you had already killed the program and would start from as if you just got it out of the box. so ask the computer tecs if they turn back the restore point? I could go on but it would sound long in the tooth. http://stevenrichardson.gojihive.com
