So Computer Guru Jamie just called and they WILL have to replace the motherboard, as I had thought. Either that or upgrade the entire system, as the computer is now five years old.
I told Jamie to order the new motherboard. He says it should come in by the end of the week. It’ll be expensive but far less so than a new system, and definitely worth it to me.
I miss Orville. Since I was eight years old, one PC or other has been my lifeline. Of course my iPhone is a marvel of technology and can do many of the same things, and indeed some things Orville can’t do, but it’s not the same.
I appreciate everyone’s patience and support.
I have an Iphone ten, I got it in November of 2018, prior to that I had a Land Line LOL!!! Glad Orville will be home soon.
I remember how stunned I was when I got my first iPhone several years ago. Leaps and bounds ahead of my old flip-phone.
I’ve got a 10 also. Got it this spring.
Anyone out there know how to do a fund me page and we could help with the computer repairs?

Best wishes for a speedy recovery for Orville! I know how lost I feel without a computer.
