I Hate Computers

I think these have a shut down date built in them. mine went down last Saturday and i ended up buying another, they frustrate me to no end, i can just scream.. but walmart i found to be getting reasonable the towers and keypad are just 300 or i got a dell laptop on sale for 500 ,,, you get so used to it and its like a addiction and when its gone your feening,,,lol but finally got back on

 

What can you do to get it going again....anybody?

 

Computers are just like cars, you cant just let em run and not do some maintenance once in while, my current Pc , had it since 2000, its still running strong.

 

my last one was working fine and i live about a quarter mile from the electric substation and last saturday the power went down and and flickered everyonce and a while and when i went back to turn it on it would even light up or kick the fan on, i got a 110.00 surge protector but when they put in my DSL they bypassed it with the router and pluged it into the wall,,, i don't know this is number 3 for me ,,,and if you take one to have it worked on it cost you almost as much as a new one so go figure,,,i do try to keep all the stuff up but things happen
