 So here's a story with a lesson to learn recently I heard that a well instant messenger aim is being discontinued surprise you know it's been around for 20 years well back in the late 90s mid 90s you know aim was very popular and all my friends were using it so I wanted to you know use it to chat with my friends well I didn't have my own computer at the time in fact the only computer we had beside an old DOS computer in our house was my sister's computer which she bought with her own money but she let me use which was very nice so I get on there and I download AOL instant messenger and I installed it and it required a reboot required a reboot probably really didn't need it but rebooted and when it rebooted instead of going into Windows we got a error message and the computer would just stop booting so like oh no you know I've destroyed my sister's computer so I called my dad in the room I said look it won't boot what did you do I try and stall this program all my friends are using it so my dad got on and called tech support for whatever brand of computer I think was Gateway he called Gateway and they asked what we were trying to install and I said I'll try install this chat room so I could talk and the person on the phone the tech support so oh well you don't install chat rooms you just go to them which at the time was was fairly true you in the back of the day he would go to a chat room and I'll fill out you remember this chat rooms at the time you go in there and the page didn't auto refresh you would see the conversation and when you sent a message the page refreshed or you would have to click refresh to see the conversation keep going obviously AOL instant messenger was a little bit better than this the tech support was like oh no you don't install chat rooms obviously what you did was was you're doing it wrong you know and my dad got all mad at me that I shouldn't be trying to install something eventually they hung up on tech support because they weren't helping and I don't remember why my dad left so I decided to do something would seem obvious but it's not to a lot of people turn the computer back on wait for the air meshes came up and you know what I did I read the error message the error message said something something something unable to boot because error in this configuration file removed this line or something like that so I booted in a safe mode went to that file deleted that line or modified line whatever it said it's been 20 years I don't really remember rebooted in the computer booted fine and that seems really obvious but even in today I talked to people they have problems with their computer and they go I'm getting an error and when I go to check it I read the air I go well this is the problem like how do you know that I go well I read the error message and you know and I understand some error messages especially on a Windows machine don't make sense it just says error at this and it gives you some you know error number but a lot of programs will tell you what's wrong and if you read it usually you can fix it by doing what it says so that's a lesson to be learned go ahead when you get an error on your computer on your phone whatever you should read the error message because it's probably telling you something you should know that's a lesson to be learned thanks for watching and always as always have a great day
