Writing from my kindle... my computer is broken. I've been trying to fix it for 2 days to no avail. I don't know why it won't work...it doesn't make sense. I don't know if it can even be fixed. I'll keep trying and maybe we will be able to pay to have it worked on, but I have no idea how or when. It's just to hard to write much on my kindle, that's not what it's intended for. But I'll try to keep in touch. Who knows, maybe God will fix my computer and there won't be any problems! That would be great.
Sorry for the bad news guys.... it's up to the Lord now.

Don't worry :) I know about this kind of accidents with computers. Its good to check for the cost of repairing if that's possible. And if its too high you can check for a refurbished computer at a low cost, if possible. I hope this is not necessary. Was it an old pc. What did it do before ? Did you see any signs? Lets say overheating or something?

We have had a ton of computer problems but God always came thru.
Maybe the Lord wants you to rest awhile?
We will pray for you and also about your computer.

Cindy, what are the symptoms of the computer problem, and have you upgraded to Windows 10?

The problem you have with new version sof windows is often people try and put them on older machines, which have old chip sets and older CPUs and older peripherals ( like printers etc ) and so they dont work properly. Bad drivers can lock up windows and cause freezes and restarts.
Win 10 is really for the latest hardware and peripherals - naturally MS will say it runs on older stuff........ahem........, but as usually is the case only with "vanilla" drivers at the most basic settings and even then.....and dont forget MS seems to be a marketing company first and foremost, and makes technology second.
I've been in the IT space for 30 years now, and my suggestion is go back to windows 7 ( not vista ) and stay there until win 10 has all the bugs worked out of it which might take 1-2 years. That said, I also think MS is forcing people to go up to latest hardware by not writing drivers for older stuff or porting across old drivers and putting in marginal ammounts of effor to make it sort of work. Seen that a few times.....
Win 10 is really also designed for tablets and portable computing - PCs are sort of a secondary consideration now as people rush to go wirelsss everything ( which I think is a backwards step, IMHO ) but it leaves out real people who live in houses and have ADSL via phone line.....

I back! Kind of anyway LOL. It's not my doing though, it's the Lord's doing 100%. He just now got the internet explorer to work. Hopefully He will get firefox to work soon too LOL. Telling anyone what's wrong with the computer would simply take too long, sorry. Anyway, it's so late now that all I have time to do is post the latest article I wrote in Word today for you all. Not sure about this weekend though as we have to do the shopping, and my son in law is having a surprise birthday party for my oldest daughter and then we have a funeral to go to. On top of that, our car broke down again yesterday so I have to get rides everywhere. But I'll keep working on the computer with the Lord's help when I can and be back by Monday, God willing, ok? So for now, let me go post that article I wrote. It's called, "Sin is more then just the 10 Commandments."
