Lack of computer access
Hello all,
Due to an incredibly expensive power bill last month, my family has restricted computer access in order to conserve. This means that I won't be online very much for the next few weeks (I'll be back at school on the August 20, and I don't have to pay utilities there, so I can use the comp more when I get back). I won't be checking up on the forum as often, but I intend to check my e-mail every day or ever two days. Therefore, if you need to get in touch with me, please feel free to e-mail me, as I won't be checking the board as much in the next few weeks.

The really expensive ones hold out for over an hour. Most UPS power systems hold out for about half and hour or less. But using a computer off a UPS is a very inefficient way to use a computer, due to the fact that the UPS' charge capacity will deteriorate quickly, since its use is for emergency power outages.
I have to agree with her; cut down on computer usage.

Its not a problem anymore. Two weeks ago during a thunderstorm, lightning hit and caused a power outage that corrupted the Windows Installation due to an abrupt shutdown. I have it working now.
