Cable Forum - Moans and Pet Hates

I hope you are OK Daddy and that you will be able to get back into your flat if only to get your things. The pictures look as though there is a lot of structural damage to one end of the building. <hugs>

Affraid not, it's a crime scene and a wreck. Going to be doing an Alan Partridge in a travel tavern till next week at the earliest, still can't be helped.

Re: Moans and Pet Hates part 8

PC wouldn't boot this morning, couldn't find a boot record on the HDD. I went into the BIOS setup and the HDD order seemed to be wrong, trying the D drive before the C (SSD). Set it to boot preferentially from the SSD and the whole thing burst into life. Stangely Windows seemed to struggle to access my D drive (500G data buffer), did it eventually and all the data seems intact.

The system has recently had the clock and date not running when powered down. The battery shows 2.9v in the BIOS and speedfan but I'm going to change it as it may be corrupting the CMOS now. It is the original battery on the mobo* from a few years ago so could well be on the way out.

Think it's time to look at a new PC build.

*Was top-of-the line when I built this machine.

Edit: Running a full system backup as a precaution.

I know why I can't get courgettes in the supermarket* but all kinds of lettuce seem to have gone AWOL as well. I thought these were mostly grown hydroponically under glass.

*The rain in Spain.

Yes my partner went in the other day and there were no courgettes there for a pasta bake that was being cooked and the only lettuces were those soft leaves ones which we don't like..

Unusually cold wet weather in the areas of Spain in which most of this stuff is grown.

Iceberg lettuces and broccoli rationed as vegetable crisis hits supermarkets

Oh no! They'll be panic buying now, more than they can ever hope to use before it goes off, and the shelves will be stripped. :rolleyes:
