Main Report or Narrative: This week, I made sure all of the computers in the lab had Scratch installed. I also continued upgrading memory, though on a much smaller scale. In room 215, one of the Dells had been unplugged because it was running so slowly. I discovered that it was probably because the disk was full (there's 1 GB RAM) so I started cleaning the disk, but I will have to go back and finish that before it works well. On Wednesday, I went down to the Latin room where I needed to install Adobe Reader in order for the teacher to open some documents. I also spent some time installing Kid Pix on one of the computers in the lab, but we were unable to remember/figure out how to point it to the server. I also tried to work on another computer having issues, # 23, which would run the Dell start up screen, then the Windows, then return to the Dell in a continuous loop. I ran some tests and got a lot of error codes. It looks like it might be the hard drive - I got error code: 7, which, from research, indicates that the hard drive may be failing or unable to be read. I used the Utility Partition for the other tests, but didn't have time to search to understand the error codes. I did not try running the computer on a disk nor remove the hard drive or do anything to the inside of the computer.
