daytrader Posted January 3, 2007 CID Share Posted January 3, 2007 fwiw..my satelite system has been doing good (1000/192) plan..HughesNet.. anyways over the weekend my 2 year old grandson came in here, with internet on and must've played my keyboard like a piano..lol.. long story short.. stats on internet dropped to 192/15 speed..OMG!.. I did not un-install Hughes net, but I removed line from back of computer and I put set-up disc back in and followed directions, re-booted, and it basically, immediately came back up to snuff.. I noticed a section running on set-up program about OPTIMIZING windows settings...that it did..that probably corrected what grandson did.. just fyi..

tommie gorman Posted January 4, 2007 CID Share Posted January 4, 2007 I probably would have tried restore point. Glad you got it fixed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daytrader Posted January 5, 2007 Author CID Share Posted January 5, 2007 I tried that but got message that "cannot be restored to that date, please try another."..and I went to one prior to that..same message..geesh..so noticed HughesNet Tool Box was missing so I wound up as last resort kind of re-installing HughesNet..Luckily, that worked. bottomline..don't leave 2 year TAZ un-attended in computer room with computer and internet up and running..LOL..

granpa Posted January 5, 2007 CID Share Posted January 5, 2007 bottomline..don't leave 2 year TAZ un-attended in computer room with computer and internet up and running..LOL.. I have a large corner desk and in one section I have a extra key board and pullout tray, some screws and small screw drivers in the tray and my grandson uses that only. Only 3 now and he has used that one only over a year now. I guess you still need to keep your eye on them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tommie gorman Posted January 6, 2007 CID Share Posted January 6, 2007 bottomline..don't leave 2 year TAZ un-attended in computer room with computer and internet up and running..LOL.. I know that is right. Been there and done that. I finally gave them my 4 year old comp. Now they don't even bother mine. Their's keeps them busy. Offline of course. But plenty of games and learning programs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
