Upgrading my brothers HP 2000 notebook from Windows 8 to Windows 10..
He called me because he couldn't get it to boot, got it to finally boot after changing the boot order, but this thing is disgustingly slow. and errors keep popping up about disk failures and now I lost the hard drive completely in the Boot Order.. LOL
Probably just going to push them towards chrome books (this is for school.. after all) -

I did a reinstall on it after the upgrade failed, and the Hard drive disappeared and I stopped playing with it..

Dead hard drive is dead. Long live the SSD!
Edit: or Long Live the Chromebook! (as the case may be).

The writing was on the wall with those disk failures. Even if you'd managed to get Windows to work, it wouldn't have been long before it failed.

Client was managing (OK not really) their own domain names - let it expire, more than 10 days ago...
Amazingly google hangs onto expired domains for a seemingly long period of time.more amazing, no one at the client (only 3 users) realized they weren't getting any external email.

friday 10:43am

@Dashrender You have a grace period of 60 days or so.
-
@siringo Sounds like not going so good?

@dbeato hey hi there. yeah, well it's friday, just can't get into it today. 2:40pm.

wondering if it is worth looking at?
-
@siringo I hear yoU!

yeah - if you go 60 days without noticing your domain is expired - because while they won't sell it out from under you, they kill the DNS connection - then the question is - do you really need it?

@Dashrender said in What Are You Doing Right Now:
hey kill the DNS connection - then the question is - do
Of course, I am just saying that you have time to renew instead of, it expired no way of getting back my domain kind of thing.

well - my client was lucky... with poachers out there often just drooling to snap up forgotten renewls.. it's nice to see Google do this.
it still just amazes me that the users didn't realize they weren't getting any external email for 2 weeks.
