<strong>Main Report or Narrative: </strong>I started work this Monday 10/25 at Fiske. Already my first problem was fixing a printer problem in the counseling office. The two computers in the counseling office were not able to print from the printer in the office. I just reinstalled the drivers separately on each computer, test-printed, restarted to make sure it worked, changed accounts to make sure it worked on different accounts, and restarted one final time for a test-print. The final work for Monday was going into the music room to work on the computer monitors. The computer monitors were apparently showing a box for analog input. I just clicked a button on the monitor then turned the monitors on and off to make sure it didn't reappear. By clicking on the button it changed the monitor to digital input and the screen didn't show up again.

On Wednesday 10/27 I had two main things to do. The first thing I did was help a teacher with computer issues. The problem was that a computer had a popup window that would not close. The teacher said each time she closed the window, it would reappear again. On closer examination, it showed that there were about 77 windows of the popup open. Clicking the exit window did close the window but because there were so many directly stacked on top of each other it seemed like the popup reappeared. I just manually exited out of all 77 windows and the problem was fixed. The last thing I did was setting up some computers by plugging in the monitors, mouse, keyboard, ethernet cable, and power cables. Two out of three computers were set up and one was missing a power cable and an ethernet cable.  As this is a Track E school there were no kids today so I did not go. Next week we will be getting monitors and hopefully setting up computers in each classroom, with the goal being 3 to 4 computers in each room.
