I managed to restart my Mary's PC

on the desktop, which was WHITED-OUT
was a message that

THIS COMPUTER HAS RECOVERED FROM A SERIOUS ERROR
etc etc
Report this to Microsoft Yes/ No ?
I chose YES

Video Drivers are corrupted or missing

Go to Microsoft Update to obtain new drivers

which I did...BUT!! the site
went around and around in circles
and nothing else happened
so, I broke-off the search > my PC being scanned
and went to ATI Radeon Site
where I downloaded and installed their Catalyst 8.1 Video Drivers
for, Windows XP Professional

and Lo....
Mary's blessings shine-on abundantly
Praise the Lord!!!!

She is, presently telling her friends in America
that the problems have been overcome
and that they WILL see her 'onsite' this evening after-all


HERE, is a little TIP
that might, in certain circumstances, save you
loads of money

If, you press your PC's ON-button
and the PC does-not PROCEED to the Welcome-Screen

FIRST... press and Hold-Down the ON/ OFF button
[on the front of your PC]
Until the power cuts off [?]
it takes about FOUR SECONDS or so

THEN
#1 Check that all leads
are properly connected to the rear of your PC,
especially, the Blue one
that is secured by screws on each side [?]
this one goes to your Monitor
check that the monitor plug is pressed firmly 'home'

#2 Pull out the 'power cord'
to the rear of your Tower
and while it is away from the PC
PRESS AND HOLD DOWN the on/off button
[on front of PC] for TEN SECONDS
Release the button
and now reconnect the power-cord again

Press the on-button
and
fingers crossed
the 'read' of, your harddrive will now, begin normally

To check, that all of, the WINDOWS FILES
are 'sound' and in the correct place
you should set up a 'dskchk'

This is an inbuilt feature of WINDOWS
and to start it, you must do the following

click on START
click on My Computer
right click on the harddrive icon
the one, which contains your operating system
this, is usually C:
unless, like me, you have altered-it, to another letter
to defeat certain 'hostile searches'

Following this right clicking of, your OS harddrive
select PROPERTIES
another window will open
At the top of this window CLICK 'Tools'
in the next window check the upper two boxes
and then click okay
you will be told that these checks
REQUIRE 'exclusive use' of, Windows
and that the check
will be started, the NEXT TIME that Windows is started
acknowledge-this, by clicking OK

Restart your computer
Depending entirely on the SPEED of your PC
This, 'checking/ testing' can, take a long time
BUT!!! it is, so worthwhile doing

Who Knows WINDOWS ? like WINDOWS does ???
During this scan
damaged/ corrupted and missing files are replaced
from Windows CAB Files
and Automatic Updates will ensure
that your files are updated to the latest versions

When you are DONE
you should make a new *Restore Point

which, will then reset your machine to this, 'refreshed state'
should you need to do this in-future
to correct, 'wrongly adjusted' system settings




dave

*Restore Points
How-to make one....
and,
How-to Restore your PC
to previously GOOD settings
is the next lesson here in GE

Hiyah missms'

Indeed TODAY, is a wonderfully Beautiful day

We are, blessed with sunshine
and, when, the wind is less breezy temperature rises

Is this, the FIRST DAY of, Summer, we ask ?


If it is like this tomorrow
I will make a start in the back garden

It was so warm today that I have had my hair CUT
at the hairdressers...
mind you... it was almost long-enough for a 'pony tail'


It kept me warm through all of our chilly days
and, there were, so many

And The Difference Between Them

The true ministry is sent of God
and is the gift of the Holy Ghost,
and it stands in the power of the Spirit of God
and not in words of man's wisdom which is from below.
It brings people to the knowledge of God,
which is life eternal,
and it turns people from darkness to light
and from the power of Satan to the power of God.
It is freely received from God
and freely given forth by us.
It proclaims peace on earth unto such as are of a broken and upright heart,
and it proclaims war against all the wicked upon earth.


It is a good savor unto God in setting the way of life
and the way of death before all people.
The ministry of Christ is free and cannot be bought or sold for money.
It is without hire, gifts, and rewards from any man.
It is given freely into the world, and it ever was
and is persecuted
by the generation of the unjust and by the powers of the earth.
He that comes in the Father's name cannot be received by the world,
but the world is at enmity against him in this generation, as in every generation.
It converts people unto the knowledge of God,
and many did and many do receive the knowledge of God thereby,
though some thereby be hardened against God unto destruction.
The word of the Lord and the ministry returns not in vain unto God,
but all by it are left without excuse,
the witness of Christ in every creature being reached to,
which gives testimony to the power
and to the truth of the ministry of Christ.


But the false ministers and ministry are not such.
Their ministry is received by natural learning and arts
and is not the gift of the Holy Ghost,
but it stands in the wisdom of man's words
and not in the power and life of God.
It profits not the people at all,
neither do any come to the knowledge of God thereby,
neither are they turned from darkness to light,
but teachers and people continue in the power of Satan
and in the unconverted estate.
The witness of God is not reached
to bring to the understanding of things which are eternal,
but people are ever learning by it
and never coming to the knowledge of the truth.
But the blind lead the blind,
and like teachers like people, all out of the way,
given to iniquity and unrighteousness.


Such are they who preach for hire and divine for money
and seek for their gain from their quarter,
and through covetousness, by feigned words,
make merchandise of souls,
going for gifts and rewards and teaching for filthy lucre,
having settled places and so much a year.
These are not the true ministers of Christ,
but false ministers of antichrist and deceivers,
and were never sent by God
and never bring any to the knowledge of God.
Such we bear witness against
to be of the devil and that for many generations
the world hath been deceived by them,
who had the form of godliness but not the power,
and Christ's words and the Apostles words
without the life.
They have served themselves and not the Lord Jesus.
But now they are made manifest with the true light
which approveth the ministry of God
and disapproveth such who are ministers of antichrist.

All that are in the light and walk in the light
can receive this testimony which is given by the Spirit of God
and reveals that ministry which is sent by him
and which fulfills his will,
and is against the false ministry which is not of God,
which runs and was never sent by him.

Good morning, Eagles. Praying for those who are suffering from anything that keeps them from enjoying their fellowship with the Lord and prevents joy in their lives. Hope all of you have a wonderful, wonderful day.

 

[davedajobauk]

It is a lovely day again today
albeit a little cold in the shadows

in the sunshine and without the @ 10mph breeze
it is BALMY

I intended to work in the garden today [if it was like this]
However, we return to our Ceramics Class today
and need some shopping
from The Salford Shopping Precinct, also

So, it's MAYBE TOMORROW with, the garden makeover

Good Morning All and Happy Earth Day. Has anyone planted a tree?

 

[njsisterinChrist]

Good morning everyone
It is a beautiful day in New Jersey today.
Both of my girls are home this week for spring break, so I am having a hard time getting any computer time. I slipped on now while they are watching a movie.
I hope you are all well.
I will try to get back on again later.
Have a wonderful day.
God Bless

 

[njsisterinChrist]

Thank you so much for this!
I hope it is ok that I share this with others.

Sunshine and cool today. WE did an school and community clean up today at work with the students in honour of EARTH DAY. I am not really sure what that is but it was nice to get out in the fresh air and the area looks much nicer now. Gotta do my taxes tonight so I am off for a pre dinner nap. Ta ta Jan

Hello everyone!

The turtles look almost real, Dave!

 

[njsisterinChrist]

I like the turtle very much.
It has been along time since I worked on any ceramics. I think it would be fun to try again.
I will have to see if there are any classes near us.
Well I will see you all in the morning.
Have a good night.
God Bless

 

[njsisterinChrist]

Thank you! I like to share quotes with my family when I find good ones, or something that I think is inspirational.

Hi Dave. I love the turtle. I used to do ceramics a long time ago. I made a whole set of dishes. 8 place settings. I also made 2 lamps, and a large Nativity Set.I really enjoyed doing it. Very relaxing. The woman who held the classes moved too far away. I didnt' find another place as nice to go,so I stopped.

 

[missmsdancearama]

I forgot to thank everyone for helping me get my 11th star.

 

[Valentine]

Beautiful tortoise, Dave. I used to do some claywork, but its been a long, long time. It is a relaxing and pleasant way to create beautiful things.
Congrats on your 11th star, Ms!! Everyone is in my prayers today.

Hello everyone!

Mary, thanks you LadyGenteel

Yes, I thought, that Mary had 'captured'
the 'essence' of the tortoise, very well indeed
