I hate my computer.

I got it for free and I shouldn’t complain but the damn thing is pissing me off. I have a Lexmar Jumpdrive and the damn USB ports (for some insane reason) only recognize it for 15 seconds. I plug it in, open windows explorer and see it there. Click….pause….pause…drive not accessable. Crap. Unplug, replug and click. Begin copying. Copying…copying…pause…pause…drive not formated, do you want to format?

Aarrgghgh!

Actually, the same thing happens with my spycam as well. I have plug and unplug it several times to get the USB port to stay open long enough to transfer all the pictures. But with the Jumpdrive, the files are too big and so it shuts down before transfer is completed.

I got so frustrated I reformated the hard drive and reloaded everything again. It still does it. I’m using the identical drivers that I use at work and they both came from Lexmar’s website. But here it doesn’t work. Crap!

If you ever get the chance to buy an HP computer really cheap - DON’T. They may make nice printers but they don’t make nice computers.
