Vette(s): 1980 L-48 still in the middle of a frame-off.
I'm back again.  Out for 5 days with computer problems.Mr. Wizard had cleaned up the system and when it came back I had no sound, CD burner died, and it ran very slow with lock ups. This cost me 125.00
 
So back again to Mr. Wizard.  He had to reformat the main drive and reinstall my programs. I lost all programs without a disk. It was alot. This little added adventure cost me 50.00  If it goes down again I will buy a new computer.
 
In the last 18 months: New mother board, added RAM, replaced CD burner 2x, replaced sound card, and 1 power supply.  No more please....




Corvettes and women are the same...You want to make love to them but they keep breaking down.
