It was along the lines of wanting a searchable index of old SI posts on Computer Learning and Dream Machine that motivated me to make a list of my old posts.
#reply-15935987 and #reply-15936011

The much larger project of linking the posts on CL into a help database will take much more work for me, because I must do this stuff manually. If SI chose to do it, the work could be automated and a useful product would be produced at reasonable cost.

But that's for another day.

Cheers, PW.

Mr. Mark and All. I want to thank you all first, you know who you are (to many names to list) for all the help in the past... Well I thought I would update you all. Some may remember my problem with my computer Hanging up. Well I finally broke down and called in the pro`s, Although I do value the experience because I learned a lot in the process (here). The guy at the place I brought it to is great he figured it out. (said it took him all day) He told me it was extremely hard to figure out because it Passed every diagnostic done. They found some sort of corruption on the motherboard. Funny my next choice was to change out the motherboard. I am thankful it is all over…..

But I did not get out of there that cheap, By the time I left the shop I had a box that was not quite the same. New motherboard, Upgraded cooling system, upgraded chip 1.2 gig AMD, More Ram 512meg, Windows 2000 pro.......Seemed every time he mentioned some little upgrade the little kid in me went Yey Yey sounds good….
When I got home I said What for? Do I need all this? No but it is kinda neat and boy does it FLY....
LOL
Again Thanks for the help...
Steve
