Last week, I heard a knock on the door of my house. When I answered it, there stood the UPS guy with a package for me.
When I opened the box, I discovered my new PC was back from the shop. Great! But when I read that the repair consisted of adjusting the DC power jack, I was skeptical. After all, I had checked the DC power jack before I had returned it. And, the light next to the jack was illuminated which told me that the DC power was connected to the machine. But, I plugged in the power cord and turn on the machine. And, it powered up.
When I tried using the PC, it was very slow. And, when I checked the disk usage, I noted that it was an 100% again. When I checked the CPU usage, it was at about 2% so I knew that the disk problem was not the result of some program running.
After a few moments, the PC asked to do some updates and I OKd it. And, since these updates seemed to run for ever, I decided to go to bed. The next morning, I checked the PC only to discovered that it was once again dead.
I thought about trying to fix it myself but decided to take it back to the store and let them fix it.
