<strong>Day(s) worked or described:</strong> M W

<strong>Total hours for week: 6</strong>

<strong>Kind of Work:</strong> Tech general

<strong>Main Report or Narrative:</strong>

<strong></strong>Monday: A bunch of computers that needed reformatting got finished at once, so there's now a backlog of 4 working computers that need homes sitting in the computer lab.

Wednesday: Finished reformatting another computer. Lately I find myself needing to switch out harddrives between machines frequently, and running the XP repair disk seems to fix any driver issues they have. The one I dealt with today didn't have a diver for its NIC, so I put a few others that I found lying around in to its PCI slots until it had the diver for one. Then I installed the driver for the builtin NIC off of the Dell website and it seems to be working fine now.

Also, Dell has a pretty cool diver dealio -- they let you search by service tag (that's marked on all of our machines) and then filter everything so you only get the compatible ones.

Friday: I'll be out of town for a mock trial tournament and so won't be able to work.
