Know when to hold ’em and know when to fold ’em

This Shotgun is going out late because I’m still working on a couple of computer that I brought home with me to repair. Because of some kid commitments, I didn’t get started until after 9pm. Working on sick computers reminds me of my Dad listening to Kenny Rogers sing the card song. Sometimes it just makes sense to fold up the cards, backup data, and completely start over with a computer. It takes a little time, but often less than trying to troubleshoot a knarly problem.

A couple of benefits of starting over with a fresh system are that it forces you to backup and once finished, your system runs as good (or better) than new!
