Taking my computer to the shop today. It froze up again after working over 2 hours. I was in the middle of a playing a game and it froze up. I give up. Kind of figured only needing updates was not the only problem. I now realize I was in a rut.

being without my computer REALLY told me I am in a rut.

I am forgetting to do things because I am used to doing them after I get something done on line

Anyway Hopefully I can get it fixed. Tom went to talk to a VA advocate yesterday, and get some things started to help him with some medical problems. Looks like he will get some help, but of course when you deal with the Govt. It takes forever to get 'er done.

So glad he stopped at the AmVet post on his way home. Our friend brought a new dish he is trying out and gave Tom enough for both of us for supper. He still needs to work on his flavoring. I added some Garlic salt and it helped, but it was still kind of bland. He DID add Bell Peppers..but kind of needed Jalapena peppers.

Well, that sucks but most computers aren't built for gaming. There's likely nothing wrong with it, aside for not having enough ceu and gpu power.

I do not do gaming. I play games on Facebook like Jigsaw World and Bingo Showdown.

@Ghostlady Do you use your computer for that, or your phone? If you use your computer, that's the exact same thing as playing something for xbox to some computers. Anything with refershing graphics require a lot of power. Most people don't consider playing games on facebook as 'gaming' but the computer doesn't care.

@kaylachan i have been playing games on this computer and all the computers I have ever owned. Never had any problems. It froze on the game I was playing at the time, but I have also had problems with it losing Internet service while watching Reels on FB. Then the night before it went down I had the same problem with YouTube which I had not had with it before even though I had the problem with Reels. This same thing happened a year ago and they said I needed a new Hard Drive They put it in and it worked great until this week. I have a warranty on the part. I think it is a graphic card problem..maybe.
