Grim's PC Repair Thread
I've never tried this before (at least not around here), and I thought it was about time I actually did something constructive for you peeps. I'm a Comptia certified computer technician, and I know how easy it is to catch malware surfing porn and downloading crap. I'm equally skilled assessing hardware, operating system, and software errors under Windows, but I'm not too pro with Linux or Mac (Unix).
If you'd like some help, do me a favor and be as descriptive as possible. Type out any error messages you've encountered, and do your best to explain how your computer is misbehaving. Questions like "I have an error. What do I do?" won't get an answer. I need to know as much about your issue as possible before I can provide you a fix.
Expect a slew of questions. Sometimes finding a fix is complicated and I need more information than you've supplied, so don't be surprised when your reply is a volley of 10 questions I need an answer to.
If you're having issues following along with my instructions, don't cop an attitude or I won't want to help. Just ask me to re-explain if need be. I'm doing this for free and I usually charge people for work. If I'm not getting paid, you've got no right to be angry.
If you also know a thing or two about computers, feel free to lend a hand. Fixing an Internet Explorer error by suggesting the user switch to Google Chrome is unacceptable unless it's the last conceivable option. The point is to attempt a fix before suggesting a replacement or reformat. If replacement or reformat is the only option you can come up with, let someone who knows a little more handle the situation first.
Product opinions like "Macs are way better than PCs" or "Don't use Nero! Their customer service blows!" are wholly unnecessary and distract from the goal. Try to keep opinions to yourself or at least back up your claim by pointing to some serious supportive evidence.

Re: Grim's PC Repair Thread
Moral of the story; Druggie gets stoned, brags about his 6 month certificate for fixing computers or as they put it "Performing repairs and maintenance on PC's other electronic devices". And the druggie is doing it for free because he's a nice guy, but is compelled to remind you that he's doing for free because he's a nice guy.

Re: Grim's PC Repair Thread
I'm doing it for free because I dig a challenge and nights I get out of work and don't have anything to do, it's an entertaining way to both test myself and pass the time. I don't know why I'm wasting my time trying to explain myself to a self-righteous religious fanatic. Whatever. I hope your ass gets a platter crash.

Re: Grim's PC Repair Thread
Been building computers for about 10 years now, mostly as a hobby, but I can hold my own well enough when it comes to them, especially hardware.
Going back for my associates as a computer support specialist this year in fact.
Got no problem helping out

Re: Grim's PC Repair Thread
Very killer. I've been building since '98. I still remember PCs with riser boards and PCI extenders. P3 Slot1 SECC2 crapola. I haven't been building much in the last year or so because of work, though. I don't pay much attention to the newest and the best anymore because frankly, I can't afford the newest or the best.
I practically have my MCSE, but I'm a tad fuzzy on network topology. I need to tackle college next. I figure coming out of college with a degree in something IT-related and an MCSE certification might help find me one of those elusive "career" things I keep hearing about.

Look, sucking a dick doesn't make a guy gay. Oh, nevermind. Phobun says the he only likes pre-op chicks and he's totally not trolling for she-cock.
Phobun is here to find a perfect chick with a dick who plans to get the chop because he totally hates the idea of a girl with a dick despite what he said in his sentence that I quoted in my sig.
BTW, stop interfering in my thread. This thread is about grimfusion and his hopped-up feel-goodism. And don't you forget it!
