| 8/30/2010 8:35:08 AM | NOTE for connection speed: I have Wi Fi antenna on my room that's aimed at a cell tower but it is NOT a cellular telephone service. The up and down speed is 2000 kilobits/sec. Now to the additional comments: The computer is over 4 yrs. old and is starting to have glitches that I do not know how to fix. Examples: (1) When I first turn it on, a black screen (white letters) comes up to tell me that it does not recognize my AC power adapter but I can hit F1 to continue -- Well, the AC power adapter is working just fine (i.e., I'm not running down the battery and the battery charges up after I've used it on battery power. (2) At every boot, I get an error message saying that my Logitech cordless mouse did not install but it works just great. (3) When I plug a miniature stereo jack into the mic/line in socket, the software no longer asks me what level signal it is -- i.e., microphone or line in. Things like that. |
