Power problems!

#1 Post by Rob »

Team,

Power is out. Generator running great. FYI only. Shouldn't go down but if it does we'll know why.

Thanks!

Update:

The power company came out and after 4 freaking months, AT&T FINALLY buried the fiber line and my only thought is that they hit one of the lines... It took a while though because it didn't go out right away.

The new neighbors are watering like crazy so maybe the water shorted it after it soaked in.

Either way they bridged the gap but it's only 120 now instead of 240 so my AC and oven still won't work which is fine as long as I don't have to run on the generator :)

They said it would be days though before it's fixed and they might have to tear up my yard :(

Thanks!

What's 220? :D
Fair for you/ Fair for me.
I chose to NOT be organized.

240*. :)

Update:

Still down of course... Used the generator to run the oven yesterday for the wife to bake a cake. Worked well.

On other notes: I just deleted 1.2 MILLION junk .js files from what I can tell was the rest lingering of the virus that killed us a few weeks back. It came about from my alerting system that my C drive was full. It was 48GB of files.... MY LORD...

My Symantec is also down so I'm reinstalling that now too. Of course this requires reboots.

Thanks!
