your

Have
a

P.S.
The
one
you
want
is
places.sqlite,
you
need
to
copy
that
one
from
your

to
your

Note
that
Firefox
needs
to
be

whilst

so
so
hopefully
you've
got
ie!
Maybe
copy
and
paste

and
use
ie
for
any
further
reading!

He
said
it
was
either
the
power
cord
itself
OR
power
getting
to
the
main
board.
Because
the
power
cord
had
a
silly
connection,
he
didn't
have
any
way
of
testing
it,
so
I
picked
it
up
and
took
it
to
Office
Works
where
I
bought
the
computer.
We
tried
it
on
a
computer
there
with
same
connection
and
the
cord
worked
fine.
So
the
problem
had
to
be
getting
power
to
the
main
board.
Of
course
...
the
dearer
option!
The
place
I
went
to
are
really
great,
I
get
excellent
service.
I
went
back
at
11am
with
the
verdict
and
he
said
if
I
wanted
him
to
custom
a
tower
for
me,
he
could
get
it
done
by
12.30
...
which
he
did!
I
didn't
need
anything
but
the
tower
...
my
monitor,
keyboard
mouse
modem
/
everything
is
near
new
..so
rather
than
pay
$600
for
a
new
setup,
he
suggested
I
spend
that
on
beefed
up
ooomph
in
just
the
tower.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I
fixed
my
above
radio
plugin
drama,
still
having
problems
getting
my
old
bookmarks.
I've
looked
at
the
muffy's
links
and
tried
that.
They
just
don't
seem
to
be
there
(on
my
old
hard
drive)
for
some
reason
...
everything
else
is
there.
Bugger
Bugger
...
Never
mind.
Tomorrow
is
another
day
...
I'll
have
another
look
with
a
fresh
brain
...
if
that's
possible
I'm
sure
this
one's
wearing
out!

Sorry
la-de-da
a
power
supply
doesn't
cost
$300
especially
for
a
standard
PC.
If
you
had
a
gaming
machine
then
you
would
be
looking
at
$200+
for
a
great
power
supply.
You
can
pick
up
a
decent
power
supply
for
$50.00
dollars
Yes
do
contact
Acer
and
see
what
they
say,
I
am
sure
they
will
try
to
help
I
hope
you
have
not
given
your
old
pc
to
that
guy
as
a
trade
in?
15
months
old
makes
it

Probably
the
easiest
way
to
find
your
old
bookmarks
is
to
use
"search"
in
your
start
menu.
Otherwise
you
could
try
>go
to
our
old
hard
drive>Documents
and
Settings>"your
user
account,
whatever
you
sign
in
as">Application
Data>Mozilla>Firefox>Profiles>
and
the
Bookmarks
file
will
probably
be
in
a
folder
that
ends
with
"default"
The
last
part
is
a
little
vague
because
of
different
versions
of
FF
and
the
operating
system
might
file
them
a
bit
differently
too.

Well
boag,
I
think
I'll
leave
it
to
the
experts.
I've
come
across
quite
a
few
over
the
last
15
years,
MOST
people
who
think
they
are
experts
are
far
from
it.
I
know
enough
to
know
when
I'm
getting
the
run
around.
I
was
getting
Trend
Micro
tech
help
not
long
ago
and
I
knew
more
about
it
than
the
tech
...
that
did
me
with
tech
help,
why
bother?
I
completely
ditched
Trend
after
that
...
total
lack
of
confidence
in
them.
The
guys
I
go
to
know
their
stuff
and
I
have
complete
confidence,
I
haven't
been
lead
down
the
path
by
them
yet.
I
spent
quite
a
bit
of
time
there
yesterday
waiting
for
the
software
to
finish
loading,
I
was
really
impressed
with
the
customer
interaction
and
knowledge
freely
passed
on.
But
thanks
anyway

Sounds
like
you
found
the
right
file
but
it
should
have
a
heap
of
links
not
just
the
couple
you
copied
and
pasted
to
here.
Boag
if
it
was
anything
like
the
last
Mini
Desktop
I
opened,
I
think
there's
a
good
chance
it
wasn't
worth
fixing.
About
18
months
old,
the
on
board
sound
card
had
died,
it
only
had
one
expansion
slot
and
that
was
being
used
for
a
modem,
only
one
RAM
slot
too.
Total
garbage.
If
it
had
needed
a
$50
power
supply
I
would've
questioned
if
it
was
worth
spending
that
on
it.
This
was
a
friends
system.
Very
cheap,
very
nasty.
On
the
other
hand,
I
agree
some
PC
shops
will
rip
people
off
if
they
get
the
chance.

sorry
I
think
she
said
it
was
a
desktop
tower,
that
in
my
books
takes
a
normal
power
supply
and
yes
they
are
cheap
and
take
all
of
10
minutes
to
replace
and
put
the
cables
in.
But
the
mini
desktop
yes
I
agree
they
can
be
a
pain
but
people
like
the
look
of
them
and
they
buy
them.
Just
like
the
old
days
when
you
bought
the
stereo
with
everything
in
one.
I
asked
the
major
question
and
that
was
"
what
happens
when
the
tape
player
or
record
player
or
radio
died?"
they
said
it
all
goes
to
get
repaired.
So
I
purchased
a
component
system
with
each
unit
having
it's
own
use.
All
my
mates
thought
I
was
nuts
until
their
systems
broke
down
and
had
to
send
it
all
in
for
repairs.
I
agree
anything
that
is
compact
can
be
a
difficult
proposition
when
it
comes
to
repairs.
If
you
purchase
a
SFF
(small
form
factor)
desktop
like
HP
or
Dell
(and
some
other
brands)
they
are
designed
to
be
repairable,
the
same
applies
to
some
shuttle
cases.
The
power
supplies
might
cost
a
little
bit
more
but
they
do
look
good
and
are
a
compliment
to
any
multimedia
setup.

15
mths,
Boag
yes
it
was
a
mini
tower,
you
must

missed
that.
It
was

further
on.
It
was
approx
6cm

x
24
high
and
15
deep.
The
guys
I
took
it
to
told
me
they

them
because
of
the
over

problems.
I
found
it

that
yesterday

didn't

either
BUT
I
bought
mine
there
15

they

Boag,

further
on
and

"Yeah,

The

in

the

even
the
