More hardware problems at the House of BG

I think the higher power is trying to tell me something. I've been making efforts to get to vlogging and every step of the way this lil' HP piece-o-poop does not cooperate.

So yesterday I bought a USB2.0 card adapter and put it in and my machine froze. Froze big time. Then this morning when I pulled it out and rebooted, my display is flickering. Motherboard.

Maybe it's just loose. But I'm not going the do-it-yourself route on the motherboard.

Off to the tech shop and I'll keep you posted as I can. If all is lost for a few days I'll get to a library to let you know.

BY THE WAY. If anybody out there has a lot of experience with RSS feed issues, another blogger has contacted me for help and I've been unable to figure out what's going on with her feed. She's on Blogger and I'm able to put her blog in the Bloglines roll with no problem, but she doesn't seem to be able to advertise or link to her feed on her sidebar so that it works. If you have any clues on this email me at bluegalsblog AT gmail and I'll get you in touch with this blogger directly. It's all about community ma hunnies. Thanks.

Please stand by....

I've had some pretty serious hardware issues today. As in, I didn't have enough free space to even RUN defrag. Hours later, I'm back up, running disk cleanup, ordering a new laptop battery (LONG overdue) and trying to recover what is basically a lost 24, except for a call from a close friend, who basically saved the day for me.

Talking yesterday with the guy from CompUSA, who didn't carry a laptop battery but was helpful anyway (Matthew at the Galleria location, btw, ask for him by name) and he said yeah, I could own a Mac, but it would be kinda like going to heaven, sitting on a cloud with wings and everything, but then I'd have nothing to DO. Theology in all things, folks.

More later on this evening, I hope. If you're the praying type, feel free.
