I did not know what would happen next so switched it off. When the power came on I didn`t know what to anticipate. Are you familiar with these things?

Answer:
I’ve just spent three weeks phoning speak speak, currys and belkin to try and fix this monster I so lovingly refer to as the personal. I have clicked, plugged, pressed, double clicked, unplugged and pressed even more. But to tiny avail. In the end i uninstalled the wireless router, robbed my son of his 10' ethernet cable, (which is now lying diagonally across the room) and voila I’ve a semi working personal. The next step is to attempt to hard wire the whole thing and then if it still doesnt work efficiently I’ll take a large hammer and fix it my own way. lol
Answer:
Yes, “What Larks”, indeed! Just a first of a few things you'll experience in the personal world. Most are enjoyable, however! ('Lest they’re to this computer geek!)

This is why they make Uninterruptible power supplies. They’ve batteries inside, so if the power cuts off, you don't lose any important data.

Answer:
You should be okay, but make sure you’re making restore points through the help menu and get yourself an ups (uninterruptable power supply). For one machine it will run you around $100 U.S. dollars. You could try and get one refurbished they sell them all the time. For my system I have a higher end ups. But not real high end like a company has. You should also be backing everything up, either with an external hard drive or writing to DVD disks. Once you’re down, you're down, and that's it. And you will be pissed and frustrated that you can't get the system restored and be angry for days. Everything is peachy when it works but when it goes down that's it. You won't get the data back. You might find some files using a disk sniffer but it will only be a salvage operation.
Answer:
