On Call, PC, and phone stuff

Well so far this week of on call has been interesting. Got a call on wednesday that our main system was down so i had to log in and get it running again. That was kind of fun since i tried something new to speed up the process and it worked. Normally a few people log in to do the process, but i did the repair faster and by myself by adding 1 line to a script basically.

Got another call today which was kind of odd, but seems to be working now. Hopefully this is it cuz i'd like to have Easter be somewhat normal.

On a side note my pc USB ports all stopped working a few days ago and i found the solution to that today. Digging through the registry for driver entries yay. Windows can be a pain, but it is still the main os i use so i'm glad to have USB back.

The usb ports broke while i was trying to troubleshoot a windows mobile phone (htc Titan, sprint mogul) That phone is still not working, but i'm much closer to a workaround for that and USB coming back should help speed up that process.

Warm day!

Today was awesome, at least for a while. It was almost 60 degrees outside so I washed the miata and bro did the same. Then we went for a convertible drive. Not super far and had coats for later, but still worth it. It's great to get a little taste of spring during a winter, but i still love snow. Now the ground is all mushy.

I really should have more to write about, but oh well.
