Hello To All In Compter Help Forum

Hello all! My name is Glenn Simone. I have been using computers since 1987 both Apple and MAC platforms. I definately prefer the MAC's (I'm sure I'll have some great discussions on that subject) Reason for The MAC preference....I'm a graphic designer and production manager. What I'd like to acheive here in this forum, is my Windows PC (Home Computer) is very sick at the moment, and I hope to get it back too a much better working state. Please be pacient with me since my level if fixing problems on computers is not that high obviously. I like to defer to the experts here in this forum. Let me know where I need to go to get started.

Thanks!
Glenn Simone

 

First welcome to Computer Help Forums!!

I suggest you choose a forum for your operating system and post some of what you are observing and what the problems appear to be.

Thanks BeeCeeBee & Oldcrow (like your avatars! )

Already posted to OS XP (home edition) Forum sounds like Kojak will try and resolve some of the issues I'm having with this darn frustrating PC of mine.

You think I should just give it up and purchase a new MAC and completely get away from MS windows? (great idea Bill Gates had...but I'm starting to like Steve Jobs ideas of what a home computer should be) I know they are more expencive but for peace of mind...it's worth it! Not saying they are flawless, but I have been working on MAC at work since 1987 and the problems with them were few and far between as oppose to the PC world.

Hi and Welcome compslowski, hope we will soon have your compfixski

 

Hi I go by Wildman, some may know me from other sites and it was from one of them I found this one. Also one of the members here is a member on the other site. I retired from the U.S.A.F. in 1988 and was a Military Personnel Systems Manager. I have been messing with computers on and off since the early 1970 time frame. I tell you up front, I am blunt, opinionated and skeptical by nature. Some like me and some don't, and I except this. I also have a vision problem and am subject to making typos, I do try and catch them but some occasionally get past me. So if I make a boo boo here that is most likely the reason why.

Thanks
Wildman

Boy I do see a few familiar avatars and names. Thanks, I do believe I have found another place to direct people who are having computer problems and think I am the guru. Now is that ever a misnomer.

Thanks
Wildman
