I'll keep an eye out... in the meantime have a great rest of your Thanksgiving, Coach.
Okay, this afternoon, Tuesday afternoon, I resolved to set up the new computer.
Immediately, a problem (although read on; it's okay now).
When I connected the paper-thin monitor to install stuff, all that happened was that once in a while, the "Pacer" logo would blink on the screen, and then the screen went black again.
I thought, well, it probably takes time to "find" stuff, to get organized, after which all should be okay.
<<<a patient person.
After three hours, I gave it up. But as I wondered if the monitor and not the tower was the problem, I switched back to the old monitor, the one the size of an old-fashioned heavy-duty portable television set.
It worked; I got Microsoft installed and all that, although I hope to be able to change the
nouveau settings to more-traditional ones. I'm not retarded, after all; I don't need things
that simple.
I contacted the guy at the local telephone company, where I'd gotten the tower, the keyboard, and the mouse, but
not the monitor. He said there's probably something with the monitor that makes it "incompatible" with the rest of the computer, and told me to bring it and the tower in to the telephone company, and he could make them compatible.
I'll do that in the morning, after I take the new orange cat Russ to be neutralized at the veterinary.
Per your earlier suggestion, I "burned" the new blank compact discs on this computer, to see if the files can be transferred from the old one to this new one. They "burned" successfully; now I have to dismantle this computer and set up the old one again, to see if the files in fact transfer.
