Have you ever gone to a forum, or a help board, and among the many post you see a topic or subject that screams help in Caps?  Then when you get to the post, and begin to read you just want to slap em?  Why you ask?  Well, because their post reads as follows....

           HELP! My puter is not working right.  My (insert software here) is not working.  I don't know what is wrong with it.   

Ok so you look at the post, and you ask yourself um.... What version?  What Operating System?  What software were you running when this happened?  What was you trying to do with the software?  Um... What exactly happened?  I mean sheesh, we can't help you much if you don't give us some stats here.  We don't need to know where you was born, but we sure need to know a little bit about how you have your computer configured.  We can't guess.  We are happy, and human just like you are.  (you are human right?)

So next time you run into a problem on your computer, type out a brief explanation of what happened (not a novel).  What Operating System you use.  What version of the software you was using.  (Can be found on the tool menu at top under "help" > "about". )

If you have no clue what you have running on your computer.  Then visit the link we have on our pages to your left look under Resources, and look for Belarc Advisor. It's free!
