I have done some work on some older tablets that work fine except the battery life is very short. Most of them have replaceable batteries that can be purchased fairly inexpensively! Before you toss them and buy new, think about it! I can help!

After 25 amazing years full of great hikes, treks and adventures, my Total Knee Replacement has blown out. Surgery is set for March 30th. I am praying the fix can be to replace the center "Polypropene Tibial Cushion" and I am back in 2 or 3 days!!

Never under estimate the usefulness of a well placed non conductive toothpick, when needing to support a cracked power input port on a Lenovo laptop!

Just a FYI. If you use Turbo Tax, the 2025 version will require Windows 11!

This is a pretty good explanation of the Windows 10 support ending situation.

Let me know if you need help!

Another battle with Windows 10 to 11 upgrade! I learned a whole bunch about "Memory Core Isolation"! Turns out it has to be off to update 10 to 11! Well, not so easy! Luckily some genius wrote a script to turn it off in the registry! Humbled AGAIN but..... I won the battle!

Add another dropped Laptop fixed with Gorilla glue! Maybe I should become a spokesman!

I had a client that had 1999 Chrysler Town and Country that would intermittently fail to start. Thanks to Google Search, I found a solution!

It's hard to believe a cracked solder joint would cause such a problem! He used to get it to work by smacking the dashboard with a rubber hammer!

1 too many slips off the couch for this laptop! I am hoping that JB Weld can recreate a hinge support bracket!

Well.... not as simple as I thought but.... I have been able to extract the Windows 10 load from a non Windows 11 computer and install the disk in a newer system and get it to update to Windows 11! This saved all the programs and files without having to reload everything!

I did have to manually install the update. I was hoping just to run the update program but that did not work.

Still learning this game!!!!
