Title: Sunday PC trouble!! Post by: Joobie538 on April 07, 2008, 07:05:47 AM I can see a pattern forming here!
For the last 2 sundays I've sat myself down ready to play poker, (drinks snacks lucky cap etc, etc) and 5 Min's before the tournament start my internet connection goes!! not sure why? and none of the trouble shooting features could find a solution! needed to shut down and turn the plugs off for it to work again!? - for all of 10mins!! Though last sunday was just one of those things, but to happen last night as well FFS!!! rebooted 5 times in total before I gave up! Now either I'm very unfortunate that the only 2 times my PC has crashed has been on the same day of the week at exactly the same time, or someone is trying to stop me playing poker on a Sunday!!! I have run a virus check - no probs, and connection is fine again today! any clues on how i can find out what is causing this, really want to play next sunday minus the hassle!!

Playing on sundays isn't a good thing: http://blondepoker.com/forum/index.php?topic=32031.msg666276#msg666276 (http://img291.imageshack.us/img291/2752/pjea0pgukkdv2.jpg) ducy?

ok not being good with computers this is going to be hard to give you the right info!!! I have a wireless box thingy but it is plugged into the pc (as the pc isn't wireless) - my laptop was but thats a whole other story!!! - that one really did smash!! This has only happened twice, both on a sunday between 8pm - 10pm!! and the internet just disconnected with no error msg? phone line was still ok. Normal rebooting didn't work had to unplug from the mains and start again! Title: Re: Sunday PC trouble!!

spent loads of time online, playing poker, chatting etc, etc over the last few days - only to help diagnose this problem honest!! absolutely no probs!! going to play again on sunday and see what happens!?! I know I shouldn't, but I'm curious!! |
