BIOS

[raymond house]

Well Eugene, I have no intention of getting that deep with the cleaning
because this machine is less than a year old. I am no expert with computers
but I have been an electronic tech. for 45 years, from LF to over 18GHZ in
communications and electronics of all types. But I understand what you say
and I agree about the bug, I will follow it in launchpad and as always, I
appreciate the advise.  Thank you,  Ray
