There's your difference between how we use a word here and the way you do over there. I mean it as a person you can rely on when everything else fails. A backup is a substitute. I suppose Dee is a substitute for lickety, but maybe the other way around

how many jacks in the house scrabby?
8:15 am
crosshair
sounds like one of them is no good and either has a broken prong or is causing a dead short in the entire thing
8:15 am
Scrabbler
I forgot to remove cordless phone from power so I just did that, but I had removed it from jack already.
8:15 am
crosshair
each jack will need to be tested as well as the incoming line
8:16 am
crosshair
start with the main junction box where it comes into the house
8:17 am
crosshair
but you will need a service tech with one of those tester hand sets with the bull dog clips
8:17 am
Scrabbler
I have tested 2 jacks only. I should do all 4. I made a repair appt for this morning but when I went on-line last night to confirm it I didn't have an appt anymore. I must have screwed up when clicking for an appt, so next Wed afternoon is the soonest to get help. I want to fix this myself.
8:17 am
crosshair
try all jacks at least
8:17 am
Scrabbler
The website directed me to plug a phone into the outside box jack but I don't have one out there.
8:18 am
crosshair
make sure there are no obstructions,like bunnies putting a paperclip in one:)..my son did that when he was 2
8:18 am
Scrabbler
On our street all lines are underground.
8:18 am
crosshair
i mean right where it comes into the house scrabby
8:18 am
Scrabbler
I will do further testing soon.
8:18 am
crosshair
there has to be a small junction box
8:19 am
Scrabbler
I know where the lines enter the basement.
8:19 am
crosshair
that is where the tech will test,unless you see a wire loose
8:19 am
Scrabbler
There is a jack inside, in the basement. No dial tone when I hook phone there.
8:20 am
Scrabbler
I will test with a different phone later.
8:20 am

well,it if def a testing job of the entire wiring for the tech then

Hi herin.

Scrabbler I have a present for you:http://tinyurl.com/7f7hrlq

random computer shutdowns are often due to the temerature override protection built into all new computers to protect the cpu chip.if your computer is in a standard tower configuration and the side panel can be removed the problem can often be fixed by a good cleaning of the heat sink fins that are under the cooling fan that is over top of the cpu chip
8:26 am
Scrabbler
SO CUTE, Herin! I love watching my bunnies yawn.
8:27 am
Scrabbler
Crossy, the fan does seem loud sometimes, as if in overdrive, so I wonder if it is a fan.
8:28 am
MollyL
If you have never opened up your tower and cleaned inside, be prepared for A LOT of dust and build up.
8:28 am
crosshair
the fan is held onto the heat sink by 4 screws or a levered retaining clip.power down and unplug the unit,ground yourself by rubbing the outside of the case,remove the fan and check the heat sink fins underneath,often they will be jammed with dust bunnies
8:29 am
herinfernallady
Scrabbler have you ever cleaned that fan?
8:29 am
Scrabbler
I have never cleaned it out.
8:29 am
crosshair
and as molly says get rid of all other dust as well on the mainboard and in the vents of the poweer supply
8:29 am
crosshair
that would explain it
8:30 am
herinfernallady
O Boy you have house bunnies yes? Be prepared for dust bunnies
8:30 am

but i will bet you a coffee that heat sink is jammed

After putting my no 4/4 to the grid, I found 188 words. Now Here are some clues for you to take no 4/4 of. My husband is a pe 6/21 who has sleep ap 5/12. He snores even when he takes his little cat naps while watching his ba4/6ball games. He has this idea en 6/18 in his mind that he does not snore. He br 4/8 by saying he is the most sound sleeper, but I beg to differ. He makes so much no 5/10 when he sleeps, that it is pa4/5ful just listening to him. I can't believe his nostrils don't get so 4/4 from all that snoring. I tell him he would ga 4/6 so much more sleep if he slept with a C-PAP. But he ga 4/7s at the idea. He says there is no way he is going to sleep with something on his no 4/4 every night. Even his na 4/4 who had the same thing, has tried to ra 5/10 awareness in him of the dangers of the sleep disorder. It eats me to my in 5/10 core that he refuses to do something that could prolong his life. It ir 4/4 me so much that I just want to gr 4/8 him and shake some sense into him. Hopefully someday he will ri 4/4 out of bed and realize he needs to use a C-PAP. Now I am going to go make pe 5/12 a la vodka for dinner. I hope you have made no 4/4 of some of my clues. I will be back so 4/4.
