malada: Canadian flag text I stand with Canada (Default)
Thursday, March 16th, 2023 07:31 am
I have a friend who runs a restaurant. He's also completely computer illiterate. I've given him two computers - one for personal use and one for the business. He called and said there were issues with the business computer- wrong date and time and video problems - so I loaded up some gear and headed out.

The system was located in the basement so I let myself in. Unfortunately, I missed the last stair going down and I took a tumble. I think the box of onions broke my fall. Fortunately, I didn't break anything - I'm just bruised - which at my age is a Good Thing.

I couldn't find anything wrong with the system but replaced the BIOS battery just in case it was failing and being unable to hold the date and time.

I got paid with whole wheat bagels and refried beans.
