So the shop computer the other night was acting funny so I decided to restart it, and it just went to the little windows icon and did nothing. Did a hard shut off and started an auto repair cycle, didn't work. Did another hard shut down and went to the repair page and clicked on reset this computer. Went through a long cycle of that and then back to just doing nothing. Son said "well it's messed up" and he took it, and that's coming from IT guy. So today, I notice I can't click on iheart radio to listen to Rush on my good ASUS in home desktop, so I restarted it and it starts the SAME THING. I tried the same fixes but SAME DAMN THING. Well, I remembered I had a W7 Home Premium disc so I installed that on here and I'm back in business, the COMPUTER is fine. I think what happened is this DAMN W10 AUTOMATICALLY INSTALLING IT'S UPDATES without YOU knowing, and if you have an older computer like these that came with W7 on them instead of something newer like the touch screen computers, well updates are being downloaded in the background that is NOT going to be compatible with it, thus, your computer just became junk, unless you have the where with all and basic computer knowledge to fix it by reinstalling a new operating system.
I think the way they do this stuff, like Apple INTENTIONALLY SLOWING DOWN their older phones, is just freakin' CRIMINAL, this INTENTIONAL OBSOLESCENCE that they PROGRAM into it. Your equipment can be working just FINE... UNTIL... they come along and DOWNLOAD something into it that SCREWS IT UP, OR deletes something that you NEEDED only to find out that you can NO LONGER get that DRIVER, DOWNLOAD, SUPPORT, whatever, now you're just SCREWED! Oh... sorry... guess you'll have to go out and buy NEW STUFF... it's criminal. Probably what hit AboutTime's computer the other day too.
