I’ve been trying to Send a message, a long one it won’t let me hence this as a test.
That’s weird! It allowed a short one. Are messages limited to size, number of words?
I’ll try the long one again tomorrow if I can find what I typed
I’ve been having real problems with my whole set up on the pc and not just with playing Links. Every time I switched on all I would get on the screen was flashing lights which ended up with just a white screen. I just rebooted and usually it would seem ok 2nd time around. Sometimes it took 1 or 2 more goes.
Then I had a second problem as when I tried to get here to the forum or load up Links to play a round nothing happened. Some sort of internet problem maybe so it could be I need a new pc or could it be that I’m still on Windows 7 and it’s finally telling it’s close to dead
So after a long time dealing with this i got a new monitor to see how that changed or improved things.My son did all sorts of stuff I hadn’t a clue about but at the end of it I have a new monitor. Plus I have been using Firefox as my…… ( whatever it’s called) and apparently hardly anyone uses that anymore. So now I’ve got Chrome. Means nothing to me but that’s what I’ve got.
Anyway I only have this monitor for a day or so so I said I would play a round of golf and see how it goes. The new monitor is my sons and is much bigger , mostly wider than what I’ve been used to and the screen is much brighter. I’m sure the brightness is easily fixed ( although not by me) Also I had no sound at all using this monitor.
Hitting snap seemed much the same although I did have 2 wild ones but I did find it close to impossible on the greens. Most of the putts were easy/ quite straight but the few I had with bend were scary. I’m not a step counter and all I do is basically look at the putt and then with help from the BLI just hit it. Don’t think I’ve ever missed a 9 foot putt by so much. So not a good round. I reckon if I played Valhalla on it I wouldn’t be able to hole many putts at all.
I think I had 3 routine putts and didn’t get close on any of them. I assume it’s down to the monitor being at least 6 inches wider.
I’ll be back to my old monitor tomorrow I hope, with all it’s associated problems, but after this week I might just go for a new pc and monitor and live with having to get used to it all for a spell. Always knew I’d have to move off Windows 7 eventually but when you haven’t a clue what it’s all about, how to do it etc it’s easier said than done.
Fingers crossed it goes better than my imagination is telling me.
