I would like to dedicate this section of my blog to my friend, Ed. He owns a Compaq Armada 3500 laptop computer and has it for 7 or 8 years (It must 40 in dog years). It started out running Windows NT with the low end specs at that time.
Then he pushed it by putting on Windows 2000 and then XP, overclocking his processor, working his 6 GB hard drive like it was a 200 GB hard drive and collected almost 1,000,000 different kinds of viruses, backdoor programs and anything that was infected it I did not know.
I might be a novice tech supporter, but I can’t bring the dead to life. He could take it to any professional tech supporter and they might say, “Have you ever thought about donating it to the Smithsonian Institute”? Now the display on the laptop is faded out of existence, it can be use as a mini desktop.
My friend, it is time to look to the future and get yourself a new laptop, such as a Toshiba Satellite series or a new HP/Compaq laptop. It is time to leave the past behind because you can’t revive a dead laptop.
