Last week the fan fell off the processor of my pc. I thought I'd solve that for once and for all by slighly expanding the four holes in the mother board, so I could put it back using plastic bolts (to avoud short circuits!!)

Unfortunately I cut some lines on the circuit board and it's all useless now.

Besides that, I bought a second hand mother board but my ram strips didn't fit in the ddr slots.

So I bought another computer (second hand) and yet I wasn't out of trouble yet. Windoze does NOT find the lan connector. When I put the wire into the slot, the leds light up but there's no connection. Just a hour ago I found out I'd switch the wireless usb connector of my ladys' pc with the wire...

Computers are fun, as long as they work
