<strong>Main Report or Narrative: </strong>This week was pretty slow for me as well.  I really should write what I do down so that I remember it for these posts.  On Tuesday, I got a message that TechXL or whoever had called the school, so I called them back.  It turns out that they didn't really need anything, so those asset tags Emily ordered are on the way.  Dr. Sanders asked me to look at her new Windows Vista laptop, because she had tried to transfer a file from the laptop to the school computers, and they couldn't read it.  I quickly realized what the problem was: She was using Office 2007, and it saved the document in that awful new format that nothing else can read. (Did I mention I really hate Office 2007? Terrible new interface, terrible new file format)  So, on Thursday I gave her a tutorial on how to save documents in the Word 97-2003 format.  I also added a school and techco account to the laptop, so that regular school folks could use it and tech folks could conduct maintenance on it.  Friday was probably the busiest day of the week.  I first randomly decided to run a Windows update on a teacher's laptop, since I knew it would almost never be plugged into the network.  However, it seemed to have some kind of user rights issue with ActiveX controls, so I couldn't update it.  Since it wasn't urgent, and I had other teachers waiting, I put it aside.  The teacher in room 221 had an odd problem - his desktop display was upside-down. (Not the physical monitor, I mean just the image)  I used Google, and imagine this: If you press Ctrl-Alt-Up arrow, the screen flips upside down, and then if you press Ctrl-Alt-Down arrow, it flips back to the right way again.  Apparently, not every computer is this way, because mine isn't.  While I was in the room, the teacher asked me to set it up so that his teacher computer could print to the networked printer in his room too.  This was easily accomplished.  I then went to Ms. Berry's room, where the problem that Emily described in her post below was back.  I really couldn't figure out what was going on with it.  If I logged into techco first, it couldn't log into the school profile after that.  If I logged into school, it was slow and had no internet.  We'll have to keep looking at that one.
