Well I've had the other two up complaining to me about theirs (haha like I have a fucking clue, lol) so I suppose it wouldn't hurt to ask the third

May be this is what I'll have to try tonight when I get home if the computer at home tries to claim it can't locate the modem like it did last night :rolleyes:

Now why didn't I think of that :rolleyes:

Couldn't be bothered messing around with it too much at midnight last night. It will get a maximum of half an hour of my attention tonight otherwise it can wait till my friend who is a computer engineer comes around on Saturday

Or... next step, turn if off, turn it back on again and swear at it... then you move on to threatening, you're jumping too far ahead :rolleyes: us guys know this cos we read the instruction manual...

I thought guys never read instruction manuals or asked directions - you just 'knew it'. It was all instinctive....

Damn out thunk again :eek:

But really... how much hassle can it be to turn it off and turn it back on again, 99% of problems cured at step 1

heehee....that's how I make my living.

Hitting control and X is another good one....folk think you're a genius for pressing a couple of keys.

failing that, tell them you need to get PC Support to fix the Felangy.... :-)
