It's not my hard drive which I told the guy at Gateway but no, your hard drive could be turning the computer on and off. So I waited and 5 days later received a new hard which I put in last night (I'm at work now) and guess what? It's not the hard drive, it's the battery supply. So I took the hard drive out and put mine back in and called Gateway. It's still under warranty so I get the pleasure of paying for shipping and returning it for a new battery supply. They're sending me a box and I have to arrange for pickup from DHL which doesn't have a store in my area. Once Gateway receives it, it will be 10-14 days before I get it back.
I'm getting an old computer from a friend tonight. Even if I can't get my cable modem to work with it at least I can load it with my scanning software and scan all the drawings, email them to myself at work and post from here.
Withdrawal isn't the right word for this.
I SHARE YOUR PAIN !!!

I always have a backup system up and running even if its just an old Pentium 3 or 4. That way if my main system breaks I can trouble shoot some of the problems online in forums before letting someone like Dell or Gateway do it for me. They always seem to make the problem worse.
If your wondering how I ended up here. It was a Google Image search for "Copic Airbrush" (your on the second page). I'm not an artist but the Copic Airbrush attachment is very cool.
Great work and dedication to the site. I can barely make one post a month now. Just burned out on blogging. You even manage to have artwork ready everyday. Nice!
