First we helped Ms. Kreuzberger set up a new computer. The problem originally was there were too many files to transfer them via a Flash Drive. So we changed the domain from NUSD.LOC to WORKGROUP on both computers. This allowed them to share files so we placed the files from the old computer onto shared, put them on the new computer, then hooked up the latter in her from. By doing this we did not only give a teacher a new computer we made sure that everyone in the school is running on the same OS, specifically Windows XP.
Soon after Mr. McDonald came in for a class where his kids did Accelerated Reader. Soon Ms. Stanek came asking us to help with her E-Mail. Apparently no matter what she did it ordered it oldest to newest which was greatly inconveniencing her. It turned out she had accidentally clicked a button that changed the order and she had not realized yet that it was a button as it appeared to be just saying what was in the column.
I then learned how to switch out a hard drive, which I don't know why I never bothered to learn earlier as it is ridiculously easy. All that is necessary is to slide it out and then plug in a few wires in the back. After that I installed XP however we then had a string of classes cutting out time short.

You're right, changing a hard drive is usually made out to be difficult (You must be on the right surface in the appropriate footwear at the full of the moon...) Personally, I think it is a conspiracy!
