Normal service will be resumed

I am sorry for the lack of action here on Plymothian Transit. A combination of being very busy and also quite a few computer problems over the weekend resulting in the loss of a whole afternoons work on Sunday have all added up. My PC is now finally back up and running although some settings have reverted back to defaults which makes some jobs harder to sort out until I get things back to how I like them.

It seems the main culprit was my keyboard which proceeded to mess up Google Chrome completely and other essential programs too. I have now reverted back to an old keyboard  and reinstalled Chrome (five attempts!)  so everything works again.  The trouble is this old keyboard was replaced as its impossible to read any of the letters on the keys which makes typing up blog posts even more fun!

However, I will now get back on track starting with the next Devon Transit post tomorrow and then hopefully full service will be resumed…

Sadly I did not get to Kingsbridge this weekend - so if anyone has any photos they would like to share of the event - you know where to send them as I am sure people would love to see them.

Cheers

Graham

  1. Graham, If your two keyboards are the same size, and model, you may be able to switch the keys over. They will pop off with a small screwdriver and press back in place. Two words of caution though.
    Do the job with the computer switched off; and swap the keys one at a time. Otherwise, disaster beckons !

    1. Thanks - but they are very different keyboards! I will manage with the old for now and buy a new later. Its a good job I learnt to touch type years ago so I know roughly where the keys are even if I cant actually read them!

    1. I think its the faulty keyboard that was the problem but there was also a Windows 10 update which reset all my other settings earlier, and maybe was the cause for other problems too. As for the camera battery - I am pretty sure most of us have done that before!
