    Hi all,
    just an update,
    I graduated school, and got a job right away.
    I'm in charge of one locations PC Repair dept,
    for a rapidly growing networking company.
    I work with residential clients and the network techs on
    stuff they can't repair on-site.

    So far, so good.
    But I miss coding.

    Hey guys

    Just noticed this bit of the forums there, missed it earlier

    Anywhoo, i'm kenny, 21 from Scotland.
    I live in the not so nice part in the middle.

    Got about 12 years computing experience behind me.
    I did a short course on C++ programming and am still doodling in it.
    I prefer web development though - I've built quite a few sites, mostly for myself and my band (cherokee red). You can find my site in my profile.

    I write my own stuff - all my songs and lyrics are up there.
    I'm good with php, that's what I built my site in. Mostly taken from phpBB and phpBB fetchall.

    Think thats about it.

    Hey cherokee, enjoy the forum.
    Never, ever approach a computer saying or even thinking "I will just do this quickly."

    Howdy Yall

    Figured I should post here, probably should have made this my first post, but found the forums here and got excited that maybe I will meet some others in similar situations.

    Have been building, repairing, playing, tinkering, etc... with puters since I was 8. Well if you consider the TI-99 a puter. lol Mainly did my tech stuff on my own time while working in the architectural field. Finally saw an opportunity to get into computers as a profession. Been doing support now for 6 years. I do a lot, and I mean a lot of repairs on our corp laptops. I got HP APS certification, and now I make moeny for my company for doing these repairs. Oh I still do the desktopsupport rolle as well.

    On the Personal side, I love Soccer and play still to this day. I enjoy cigars, motorcycles, and oh yes playing outside with my 2 kiddos.

    Thats a brief enough intro. Hope to meet a lot of you guys and gals.

    Welcome to Windrivers Soccermasta

    There is a specific laptop forum and a couple of members are HP accredited - perhaps you should post some of the error codes there?

    Ti-994a... ah, the memories...

    My buds and I were into Vic20s and C64s. Old school.

    I really showed them up when I got my Apple IIc with double the capacity of the C64, a built-in floppy drive (5.25"), and hi resolution graphics (256 colors!!!).

    I never had an apple for some reason. I did take some summer courses for them at our local high school though. Think I might have been 12???? So long ago I cannot remember anymore.

    After tearing up the TI, I think my parents bought me my first real computer.

    A Packard Bell 286sx. wooohoooo that was some puter. lol

    Whoa! Brings back fond memories of my first investment, an 8088 with an RGB monitor (16 big colors) and a single dual density, double sided 5.25" drive. I didn't have enough money for the color monitor and a second drive.

    I cut my teeth on an old Atari 16, which we used to write text games in Basic. Edball remembers!
    I didn't surrender, but they took my horse and made him surrender. They have him pulling a wagon up in Kansas I bet.
