The only thing is,and nobody believes me when I tell them this,I was having trouble with the dialup where,about one or two days a month,I'd be online and the modem would click off,then about 3-4 seconds later,the computer would shut off. Now here's the part that nobody believes. If the phone rang,the computer would start up on its own instantly,as SOON as the phne rang. I could even dial my own number and make it do it. I could start it up by pushing the button on the front of the computer,but it seemed to keep running longer if I started it by phone. Now,with the wireless,it's OK UNLESS I try to watch too long of a video. I can run something 3 minutes or so. That one that somebody posted on Tales yestersday with the jet powered merry go round played alright,but anything much longer and the computer shuts down. I have the phone line unplugged so don't know if dialing the phone will restart it or not. I just let it sit a few minutes and restart it with the button. Wondering if the dialup modem could POSSIBLY have anything to do with it shutting down that way,maybe some kind of feedback or something? Sounds far fetched I know,but on a stack of Bibles,I could restart it with the phone when it would shut down that way!

After a few paragraphs I usually close the book and go back to banging out dents. A good friend and I were recently discussing our tractor electrical systems when he stated "I figure it all comes back to applying Ohms Law". At this point
