<strong>Main Report or Narrative: </strong>My week was cut a little bit short by the Thanksgiving break, but it was a pretty slow week anyway. I set up another computer in the lab- it had been sitting in the corner on a cart for a while and I finally got a chance to ask Ms. Banks about it. She said it was in a classroom but it had been replaced, so if I could get it to work I should set it up in the lab. Unfortunately, it didn't have deep freeze on it and it had been messed with a little bit- most noticeably it had a Kobe Bryant background. I spent a while (longer than I would like to admit) trying to figure out how a middle-schooler had changed the background when they aren't supposed to hav e the permissions to so I could change it back. None of the tricks I could think of worked, so I eventually gave up and tried changing it via the registry (using the techco account). I couldn't get this to work either, so I just deleted the entire generic4260 folder. The next time I logged in it auto-generated a folder with all of the default settings, which had the happy side-effect of fixing all of the other things that had been changed about the account (wrong desktop shortcuts, etc). Next time I run into a non-deep freeze computer, this is what I'll be doing right away.

The main copier/printer in the office was also broken last week and I spent a while trying to fix it, but there was nothing useful in the manual and googling the error code turned up nothing. Apparently they had just had someone out to fix it on Friday, and it was already broken again. They said they would call him again, and I set up the old copier that was just sitting in the office so they would have something to use in the meantime.

In other printer news, Ms. Washington's is on the fritz. She said she tried to print and it wouldn't work- but all the cables were attached and there were no jobs sitting in the print queue. When she tried it with me there, of course it worked again. I told her maybe it was a temporary network issue (she was trying to print from her laptop to a shared printer) since that was all I could think of and to let me know if it kept happening.
