SYSTEM RESTORE AND UNEXPECTED UNINSTALLATION

Sometimes a System Restore operation has the unintended consequence of messing up a program you recently installed.  The net effect is that a program may appear to be installed but is missing vital files that were “unhooked” by the System Restore operation. Because you probably ran System Restore to recover from a disaster, I don’t recommend undoing the System Restore.   Instead, what you need to do is reinstall the program that’s screwing up. Doing so reconnects the items that System Restore disconnected.

POWERFUL TERMS

Like most technology, PC power management is rife with specific terms and names for its modes of operation. Here’s the shortlist:

hibernation: In this mode, the computer’s current state is saved and the PC turns itself off. When you turn on the system again, the

saved state is restored and you can continue working.

hybrid sleep: A cross between hibernation and sleep, this mode saves data for a fast recovery but doesn’t quite turn off the computer.

This mode is enabled by default in Windows 10.

sleep mode: In sleep mode, the computer slows down to save energy. Certain peripherals are disabled and the processor enters a low-

power mode, but the entire system isn’t shutdown.

suspend: This is another name for hibernate.

BUYING REPLACEMENT PARTS

Gone are the days when most major cities featured computer parts stores. Cavernous retail, big-box stores like Circuit City and Fry’s are rare these days. Instead, you must turn to the Internet to locate parts, especially highly specialized parts like power supplies and memory. The variety of online stores is rich and the selection wide, but unlike at the brick-and-mortar stores, you must either pay for overnight shipping or wait until the part arrives. Ensure that you review the refund-and-return policy. Some items, such as memory, might be returnable. The warranty is also something you must check. A 90-day warranty is okay for electronics; if they fail, it happens quickly, so even a 30- days warranty is okay in some situations. Tech support for replacement parts is limited to non-existent. Most of these places assume that you know what you’re doing when you buy a loose hard drive or an expansion card.
