I only use the Win7 when I want to run the one programme that I can't

Thank you, but I didn't understand a word of that :-)



Oh well, I tried. It's not that difficult, surely?

And I thank you for trying.

It may not be that difficult if you know your subject but to the layman

As an ex working magician I could describe a trick as using an Elmsley
Count, an Ascanio Spread and a Tenkai Palm. Another magician would

Can I suggest something else. One son is a techie, the other is a

it was.

On dismantling it to fix something he'd broken, I found a solid lump of
fluff/dirt across the fan vent. The CPU had been clocking itself down to
avoid overheating. (he used to leave it running/charging on his bed)
