Well my 2001 PC is acting up again. Not allowing me to boot. I seem to be able to get into it via the safemode, F8 key.
Couple of things. - I am trying to restore my system to a previous good date. I am now into to hour two waiting for it to do so, how long should this take. - I may have to buy a new computer. As much as i like my iBook, I may just go with another PC, something along the lines of a mid range HP or get one built, by a computer company that was highly recommended to me for around $6-700. Looking at the iMac but at $1300 plus taxes, is a little steep right now, although i really like to get one.;-) - It will be used primarily for photos, conversions and prints. Suggestions for a Video card would be helpful. The computer guy has a number of cards for various applications and i would like to get this right if i do this. My CRT monitor, a Samsung Sync Master 753df is still working well so i don't need a monitor. I still have my XP home disk and he has XP as well as Windows 7, but everything i have is set up for XP so i probably will just use XP again. - Would the iMac have windows capabilities should i go that route. I would only want it for BBpro and a small amount of Office. I have the Spyder I i bought from Mark a while back. It works well on my PC, would it be ok on an iMac with ther LCD screen for calibration. This is my main concern, calibrating the monitor/video card for photos and prints. All advice listened to. The SO is cool with the 6-700 area, having a hard sell on the 1300 area.:-) Dave -- Documenting Life in Rural Ontario. www.caughtinmotion.com http://brooksinthecountry.blogspot.com/ York Region, Ontario, Canada -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
