You guys are the best!

It was a bad RAM that was causing the beeping. There was a sale on a Circuit City, and they were out of the one I needed. It will be in tomorrow, and I'll be back in business!

Thanks sooooooo much!

Gr☺uch☺: And a wonderful suggestion it was!

I can hardly wait. Hopefully, I can start doing some work at home now. I type 97 words a minute and have picked up Quickbooks at work when our accountant decided to quit a year ago.

NOT a floosie:  lol, I type 9 or 7 words a minute.  ;)  lol    Actually I think I type about 50 but under pressure it drops.  I may go as fast as 60 but it's never sustained very long.  I should test it. If I'm typing something that is already written, I think I can do about 45 - 50 with few errors.  But 97?  That's like super speed!  I can't even think that fast.

My daughter just gave me an old computer from work.  It's about 5 years old.  I don't think I can use it but I'm gonna have something to hack around with and see what kind of trouble I can cause.  I'm going to see if I can get it set up for a gaming computer but I think I need XP at least and it may only be able to handle 98SE ;)

Gr☺uch☺: 40-60 wpm is good. I think computers slow down speed because you are concentrating on watching the screen so much.

I found the guys at Circuit City were really helpful when I went in asking dumb questions. They must get them all the time from us older folks.

NOT a floosie:  At least you know which questions to ask  :)  I'm still learning but am mostly self taught (trial and error).  You can find any answer to any question if you word it right.  Google is great that way.  I learned to air brush photos on the internet and my first one turned out great!  lol.  People asked where I learned how to do that.  Problem is, I can't do it again without the directions.  And from a professional's perspective, my work was not that good.  But you'd have to know what to look for in order to understand the places I mess up.  Mostly it looked pretty good ;)
