mikehende Posted January 8, 2016 Author Posted January 8, 2016 I have a USB wireless ethernet adapter here, should I go into safe mode, install that then go into regular mode to test? Quote

mikehende Posted January 8, 2016 Author Posted January 8, 2016 The guy said I can take my time with this to troubleshoot so I will work on it again next week, meantime I would like to order a pci graphics card only for testing purposes, I have many here but none low profile to fit this machine. Would this be ok? http://www.ebay.com/itm/Radeon-DMS-59-PCI-e-Low-Profile-Video-Graphics-Card-256MB-/171828123086?hash=item2801c115ce:g:2YUAAOSwHjNV8423 Quote
FPCH Admin allheart55 Cindy E Posted January 8, 2016 FPCH Admin Posted January 8, 2016 Yes, that's a low profile card but I don't think the problem stems from the video card, Mike.

FPCH Admin allheart55 Cindy E Posted January 9, 2016 FPCH Admin Posted January 9, 2016 Have you tried the USB wireless adapter yet, Mike? Quote ~I know that you believe you understand what you think I said, but I'm not sure you realize that what you heard is not what I meant.~ ~~Robert McCloskey~~
mikehende Posted January 11, 2016 Author Posted January 11, 2016 I powered up to start working on it again and this time the windows repair completed and all looks fine, so far, I will continue testing until tomorrow to know for sure. 1 Quote

mikehende Posted January 12, 2016 Author Posted January 12, 2016 Only glitch I am now seeing is that the pc will restart maybe only once out of every 10 times when it's powered off so the owner is fine with that and took the pc. Main thing is it does not shut off or restart now from being on like before. Appreciate the help guys! 1 Quote
