<strong>Main Report or Narrative: </strong> Unfortunately I wasn't able to come into work in the period between Thanksgiving break and finals week, so the quarter ended a bit early for me. This year presented few problems with the new computers in the lab, although I've noticed a that some of the machines we transferred to teachers' rooms are overheating to the point of not being able to start up; my guess is that the CPU temperature diodes on the Dell Optiplex G280 motherboards might be prone to breaking, but I have been unable to fix this problem. Recently I've been working with Mr. Lair to configure the new HP wireless printers. This has been somewhat successful, but since the wireless access point across from the teachers' lounge appears to be malfunctioning, we have been unable to achieve a consistent network connection to the printer in that room. Otherwise, I haven't had too much else out of the ordinary, save for one or two machines with erratic POST beeps. I discussed the possibility of installing Windows XP on the remaining W2K computers (mostly in teachers' rooms) to improve wireless compatibility and alleviate the need for third party control software, and I would like to make this one of my goals for next quarter.
