May West Coast Meeting

[mechurchlady]

how is the first saturday or weekend in May on or after the 3rd?
Joes Crab Shack or a quiet diner?

Last time there was only 4 of us so we are slowly going to be just one.

I'll have to let you know... But be assured you'll never be just 1 at the meetup... Sounds so depressing...Think positive...

[mechurchlady]

Bet is on that I win and really do not want to drag a few nice people out just to entertain me.

The computer is at 89% memory full and sluggish, sigh, need a repair man next month, never seen the memory this bad.

Delete unneeded files and empty trash. You need to free up some swap space.

Hobie, I see ROY is visiting. (One of my favorite movies) even though the ripped the title of the move from another story!

files all look alike and did the cleaning of stuff.

Did you run a virus check? Defragment your hard drive?

Here's something someone on another forum shared. He says your computer will breathe a sigh of relief when you do this. Assuming, of course, you're using Windows.
First: If you aren't sure if a file is good or not, go to: http://www.filenet/process/index.html
Hopefully you've written down all the questionable files. You take the file addresses, put them in the search field (one at a time, of course), and this will tell you the risk of it being a bad file, etc.. Mark off the dangerous files from your list.

Second: Start--> Run --> type "prefetch" in field --> control +A--> delete. The control plus A will highlight the files, so if there are files you want to keep, highlight only the junk files. Though actually I dump all of them.

Third: To shorten start-up time, Start--> Run --> "msconfig"--> Start up.

Hope this helps.

Hey Churchy! Contact CLBeilby via PM, He says he'd like to arrange an appointment so he can help your computer.

[mechurchlady]

I did the defragment and that helped so it is down to 6 gigabites. as for the prefetch thing, not trying that yet. As for the appointment, money is tight and there is now more memory and a bit better but IE is still having fits.

So where is the next meeting?

May 3rd at 7 pm at Outback restaurant

I waited and nobody is interested. I am looking for cheap eats but want fun and good time but offsite and gluten free.
