Actually he was right. I read about this recently and it has something to do with the shielding.
NONSENSE!!!

You also have people buying van den Hul cinch cables 75cm. long for 750 euro's each, and they can actually hear it. Don't let me laugh.
These are the same people saying that tube amplifiers are better than solid-state amplifiers.

The only important thing for a loudspeaker cable is that it has low resistance.

If you can't measure it, you certainly can't hear it.
I wouldn't know about that, but if this is what the manufacturers recommend I think it's unfair to call the sales person incompetent for pointing it out.

Sorry i missed the c

Yes i had to stick to Windows 8
Netter downgrade to Windows 7

New version means you need better hardware

And why dimt they preventie update when lousy hardware
Instead of making iT crash
I already reverted back to previous version
But did not work

If you had no problems in the past then you get less

Well, maybe I was a bit harsh, I'm sorry for that. The point is that manufacturers want you to buy their stuff and sales people just tell you what the manufacturer tells them. I didn't mean to say that sales people are incompetent to sell stuff, but most of them have no clue about the tech behind the stuff they sell.

It's just like medical doctors giving you a prescription drug because the pharmaceutical companies tell them it is good for you.

I don't know where you live in the Netherlands, I thought it is somewhere in Brabant, if you can manage to get that laptop over to my house I'm willing to help you to get it back up and running again. Most of the stuff you need I have over here and I don't ask anything for it, only if we need to replace something you have to take care of that. If this is of interest to you, just send me a PM.

Why I'm offering this to you is because I think you are a fan of 'Jefferson Airplane'.
'When the men on the chessboard get up and tell you where to go' etc.

Already payed 50 euro to let computer shop fix my pc
Probably that was a misstaken fit iunderstand now that best option is to buy a nee ome

Have to wait at least a week before they comw with diagnose

Being foolish

Only advantage is that after fix i still can use word
From Office

Doubt if i can install that on a new pc because key is from2013

Also old pc had anti virus software
Maybe fit new pc i have to pay extra got anti virus software

My plan was to buy new pc Evert 10 years
But maybe that plan is outdated

I think if computershop diagnoses iT as unreparable
I bettet accept that

They repair pc’s Every day so they should be experts
Unless there best repairman
Left


Ome week withouten computer terrible but doable
Hope i donot get bored or worse problems because i cant write digital letters now

I really think that with bluescreens starting you most probably have some hardware issue (may be even just on top of a further windows problem)
