    I purchased a new computer and it has a pretty good video card, but I seem to have an issue, and can't seem to find anything online or from anyone I know as to what might be causing it. The problem is that using the internet or programs the screen freezes up when scrolling or designing or...

    I too had the same issue, but when I researched the type of vinyl that was on the vehicle from the mfg.. (Putzmeister) I found that it was a very high adhesive type of vinyl that was basically more for the screen printing industry and not available in roll form. After telling them that when...

  17. Getting shock from Maxmetal

    I really dislike getting shocks, but I have noticed that the shock you get from Composite aluminum is a little different than your standard shock.
