Tech Tidbit

I am going to start writing Tech Tidbits in here when I want to tell everyone about something or how to do something new. Sometimes I tell one or two of you and then I get busy with other problems and forget. So you are responsible for reading these and trying to remember them but you do not have to respond to them.

Here's something new I learned today: There is an error log that can help you figure out why a machine is acting up. If you right click on My Computer, go to Manage, then event viewer, then system, you will see the system logs. Here you can find red X's with error messages and yellow ! with warnings. These can be helpful to why a machine is acting up. I found a machine in Mrs. Buschjost's room that keeps shutting down and there were multiple error messages about Vixera. This could be the problem with sudden shut downs. You should find a machine and see if you can find this log.
