My HP wont even start up. It gets to the screen telling me to start normally or attempt repairs..if I start normally it freezes on the Windows start up screen then goes immediately into the repair mode...but doesnt repair anything....awesome.
My Compaq has been messing up for about 3 weeks. It has a bad disk driver and its been crashing...and I was going to take it in...bu ti wanted to get my HP in first because its been broke longer...
My logic was I would baby my Compaq along for the 2-3 days it would take for my HP to hopefully get fixed...i could have sent my HP off to get fixed ffor free (warranty haha) but its already been sent in 3 times...all the way back to NM then to HP main....a process that takes about 1-2 months....not happening.
But I havnt had time...then 2 nights ago my Compaq finally croaked. It wouldnt get past the welcome screen..
So my parents and I went to the PX nd I took both my little turds to the Computer shop....of course when I turned my Compaq on for the techie...it worked....what a hypocrite computer...if it hadnt been only $200 from a friend and if I didnt rely on it for backup (i can't keep technology working to save my life lol) I oulda chunked it into the ocean by now.
But the HP is still broke...and theyre going to take a look at my HD for the Compaq so bleh. I can't get em back till monday!
So now on to my real problem.....i have an ibook G4....it works fine...no glitches...escept one....
I've never had a mac so I have NO idea how to get internet! Aaaah. I have cable internet and with every other computer....you plug it in and it pops up on available connections.....
Does a mac do that???
NOOOOOOOO. Its asking all kinds of dumb things and I have a feeling I just need to upgrade my internet to wireless (blehrg) and then punch it till it works....
So if ANYBODY can tell me HOW on earth I connect this ibook g4 to the internet....you would be my savior!
