New Computer



So I have had this new computer for almost 2 weeks now. It's been a real pain to me.
IE doesn't work very well and it's constantly shutting down. It doesn't save log in info as well as FF does. FF doesn't work AT ALL on this computer and it's constantly crashing. And I hear Google Chrome isn't great for entering giveaways.

So I'm using IE as it is the best of the 3 as of now. Well it doesn't leave me signed into blogger for some odd reason. I can't comment on a lot of blogs giveaways because it tells me I don't have access, when FF allows me to no problem.
It won't leave me signed in either. If I go to my dashboard I'm signed in, but from my blog it says I'm not signed in.

So I can't edit posts easily, I have to do it from dashboard. It also means I can't delete comments very easily at all.
So when I go to close down giveaways from now on some comments that may have been removed by the author might still be there and comments that were added after the giveaway ended will probably still be there. It would be a pain to go through and delete them through the dashboard.

So far I'm not really liking this computer all that well. The mouse on it sucks. It's a great computer specs wise, I'm just not used to it.

It's a Samsung Laptop and I should've learned my lesson with all the bad Samsung's we've had in the past couple years, but we'll see where this gets us. So far not very good and I hope I can get these problems fixed...

**I have switched to Chrome for now and so far so good. We'll see if this keeps up!**

You know I have the same problem with trying to enter contest on IE on my computer. It is a new computer only having it since Feb. But I get that I dont have access to post comments blah blah when I enter contests, so I have to go use google chrome to enter. It is aggravating to say the least. My computer is an HP.

My old computer was a Compaq, but I used FF and I LOVED it!!!! I'm sad that this new computer is a bummer so far.

I enter giveaways all the time with Chrome without a problem. I used to have tons of issues using IE and trying to make posts on giveaways and it never seemed to get along very well with gfc but since I switched I haven't had any problems.

Good luck!
