Today in Bargain Bytes there was a lot of technical problems in the shop. Today started off with a lot of customers making it a very hard to work environment. Corey brought his Desktop which I haven't seen yet which we had to use cause of file transferring for a Mac machine. Me and Corey also discussed what we will be doing for our Practicum project, which he will do the Bagain Bytes Website and I will be doing the Adept computers Website when the 2nd practicum starts. The computer I worked on yesterday was not improving at all which really confused me which I didn't have time to find out the problem.
I started making calls today telling people that their computers are ready and such.

Daily ITT Practicum Blog - Placement #1 Day 5
Today in Bargain Bytes computers have started to decrease dramaticly, very few computers to work on today. With the computers I worked on one of them in particular was esspecially slow, taking several minuites just to load Mozilla Firefox. I never got a chance to finish that computer and it is doubtful i will finish next day too. Other than that I am planning on selling parts of my old computer to Corey. I will send my Graphics card to him later.
Also to note, my mom has been talking to her friends about me fixing computers and my neighbors computer was dumped on me yesterday. I have been doing scans on it this morning and will continue later.

Today I did more or less the same thing I have been doing for the past few days, I have been labled the sticker boy because they jokeingly make me put all the stickers on the new machines. I watched Vince, the other employee with Geno build a computer for a little boys birthday present I found the case to be rather flashy and not my style though. I did more virus scanning and installing of Windows.

Today I met a different employee named Lindsey. He made a large amount of the discs for drivers and isntalling windows. Today me and Lindsey were installing a XP machine when we were looking for drivers the updater would not work for windows. We looked everywhere for solutions when we found one in particular that worked and I put a copy of the fix on my USB drive incase I install a XP machine again.

Today during my practicum I did several fresh re installs on Windows 7 machines. unlike the previous systems these were not new machines that i worked on so I had to find drivers online. I did fresh installs on a toshiba laptop, and 2 acer laptops. re installing systems take quite a bit of time so besides talking to customers this is all I did. I used a programs called lins installer which installs many programs including mozila firefox, avast, and Ccleaner.
