Ray's Thought for the Day - Where's My Modem Gone!
Yesterday I got a message from the computer that said, paraphrasing, This computer does not have a modem. Checking up on this alarming pronouncement, since the box has been unopened and the stinking box came with a modem inside, I found that according to Device Manager, the computer still had a modem, but no com ports. That's right, no com ports.
Checking further, and remembering that my old dog sleep walks and got stuck under the computer desk while sleep walking, I decided to check all the wiring. The wiring seemed OK, but I fiddled with all of it anyway.
Ha! Miraculously the modem worked again, or perhaps, re-appeared. But I didn't get a message from the computer telling me, hey Ray, yer modems back, or elaborating on, where it went.
Let's see now, after I acheive full Sun God status, who is going to catch hell?
