    Plague

    Channel 5 recently showed a series of 3 programmes titled 'The Great Plague' now available on catchup (My5). Although it doesn't mention Birmingham it's interesting to learn how the plague was spread and with particular reference to Eyam how they discovered it could be prevented from spreading...

    Windows 10

    The problem could either be the switch (usually a very small button on the motherboard) or debris which is preventing the left click lever from going down far enough (e.g. dust, biscuit crumbs, red wine residue - in a past life maintaining staff laptops at a school I've seen them all!!)...

    Printer and printing problems

    If you're not printing colour you'd be better off with a laser printer. I have an HP 1020 (no longer available!) which is fast, prints well and cheap to run - a compatible cartridge at around £10 to 15 lasts me over 12 months. Current HP wireless lasers are around £90.

    Handsworth Cemetery Flooded Again

    Just came across this article. I hope something can be done to stop this happening again. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-birmingham-54451672 P.S. I didn't intend this to be a political comment!

    Printer and printing problems

    Eric, having googled 'Works 9 won't print' it appears that this is quite a widespread problem caused by an incompatibility between Works and Windows 10. I suspect therefore that my previous suggestions may not help! You could try printing to pdf - to print press Ctrl+P and select 'save as pdf'...

    Printer and printing problems

    Two things to check Eric. 1. Go to Windows - Settings - Devices - Printers and Scanners, click on the relevant printer and select 'Open Queue'. If there is anything in the list delete it/them. 2. Navigate to C:/Windows/System32/Spool/Printers and delete everything in that folder (but not the...

    Laptop recommendation

    Just one extra thought - some of the smaller laptops don't have a numerical keypad - a pain if you're used to using that rather than the top row of the keyboard!
