So I bring my little flip screen laptop in to Office Max to
see if they can do anything to get it running better. After about an hour (at least) I leave with a
copy of Windows 8 for the little bugger.
Why? Well, if I had them go
through the software and fix all the little issues, it would cost around
$200.00. If I bought Windows 8, I could
do a clean boot, wipe all the old crap out and get the little devil running
again, by myself. It was on sale for
69.99. It is also designed for a touch
screen computer. My little devil is a convertible,
it goes both ways. It is meant to be a
computer or a tablet. He He He, so, now
I’ve rebooted it with windows, it’s past my bedtime but how I want to
play. I just found an app for
Tetris. I’m sooooo happy! My most favoritest video game ever. :-D
I don’t know if it is Windows 8 or my computer getting all
that crap off of the hard drive, but either way, the LittleDevil is running
nice and smooth, better than when I got her.
So, short I know, but that’s my story for today.
Oh, by the way before I go, I learned an important lesson at
Office Max today. When you install or
update anything, go with custom install and watch for those little check boxes
where they sneak stuff into your computer that will bog it down bigtime. Also, disable sleep and hibernate, these
apparently where the things that nearly killed the little devil.
