[Jules]

Good luck tomorrow. Will be thinking about you.

 

[Kaila]

I've been thinking of you as well, Deb. Take care. We'll be here when you get back, hopefully soon.

 

[Pinky]

I'm excited for you, Deb
See you when you're back online!

Good luck, deb we wish you the best in your new home. An old world tradition is to give the new homeowner 3 things:
A piece of bread so you will never go hungry
A candle so you will always have light
A teaspoon of salt to scatter evil spirits
We hope you figure out how your blinds work.

Well, if you're like me, you bring the computer and related stuff with you, and have the cable techs hook it up. (Actually, I just have the cable company turn on the account, and I do the hooking up, as our setup is a little more complicated than the usual.)

At any rate, if you can find your computer stuff, you can likely just hook it up to the cable stuff and be online (or have your cable techs do it).

I don't like the new cable service. I don't get my favorite channels on TV, they gave me WiFi Internet service which Windows 7 isn't very compatible and they changed my phone number.

 

[GeorgiaXplant]

You didn't just move your old cable service to the new house?

And...tell them to change your number back to the old one.

Remember: "No" is a complete sentence.

I'm glad you survived the move! Curious, though...what happened with the rolltop desk?

 

[debodun]

I asked about just transferring my service. They said "NO". The desk is behind me as I sit here. They had to take the doors off the house to move it.

I hate to say it, if you cannot get Windows 10 working on your computer, you may need a new one. We upgraded both of ours with refurbushed Dell computers with Windows 10.

 

[GeorgiaXplant]

Gosh, @debodun, I don't think Windows 7 is even supported anymore. Treat yourself and get a new computer. Wait not an old-fashioned desktop! Get a laptop. You'll be glad you did. You won't have to make room for it.

 

[debodun]

I've heard a lot of people have trouble iWindows 10. The tech that did my installation today said to get Windows 11.

 

[GeorgiaXplant]

I've had 10 ever since it was launched with no problem whatsoever. My computer won't support 11. If yours has 7, it's too old to support 11. Heck, it might be too old to support 10!

What's up with the cable service that you can't get the channels you want?

 

[RadishRose]

windows 10 is just fine!

 

[Senenity]

It must be hard to leave the old homestead with all the wonderful memories to cherish from your heritage home. I hope you can make good memorabilias in your new one too.

I had heard that, too, so I put off getting 10, as long as possible for me,
but like @GeorgiaXplant and RR,
When I could no longer use anything else, I had to try it, And I did not find it very difficult, at all.
Just a few changes, that are a nuisance to get used to, at the very first, but not long then, it's a piece of cake!
I am sure that you are able to transition, and you probably do need to, at this point, Deb.

 

[Devi]

I loved Windows 7. But Windows 10 wasn't that difficult to get used to, and has some improvements that allow me to do things faster and better. Since your operating system (Windows 7) is so old, I would suggest getting Windows 10.

Much success in this new chapter of your life @debodun . Quite a change, and it will take time to adjust, When you are able to come back online, let us know how things are going.
