NGC - When Google quits Googlin'
« on: October 29, 2015, 04:33:38 PM »
Re the Google search feature.  For some reason, Google, running on my Win7 desktop, will not perform a search function.  I can type in a word or words, Google may or may not offer suggestions.  When I click on a suggestion or simply click on the 'search' icon ...... nothing.

My Win8 laptop, on the other hand, googles like it always has.  Search works on it.

Any thoughts?

I know little. That disclaimer said, have you tried rebooting yet ?
That's the combustion chamber of the turbo shaft. It is supposed to be on fire. You just don't usually see it but the case and fairing fell off.

I had to resist posting a link to that song. Seriously though, how can we help this guy ?

Obviously, it isn't just my problem.  One solution on this link Bill H supplied follows, and it works.  Not sure how I replace 'new' Goodle with 'old' Google, but it does allow me to use Google search function.
