[Ham-Computers] Desktop problem

[vk6jb]

Thanks mate,
I appreciate you help.
Looks like i will have to try to do a windows repair and see if that helps.
Will let you know.
I think i can do a repair ?
I am not sure with 2000.
Why is it i get these problems.... .
Any way, my memory problem will be taken care of very soon and my mate will
be happy to.
He went into hospital last week and should be home in a day or 2.
I received an email from Paypal with some very good news.
Wink wink, nudge nudge.........
John.
