True. I was told this by a friend who is a computer tech at a company
here in town. He was going to do it for me. No way would I try to do it myself. Luckily, I was able to buy one with XP on it from Dell.

Shorthand and PDR or PDS (whatever it is, I don't have) would work. I have Smartype too and it's a pain that it won't work.  I was told by others here that what is on the DQS is sufficient.  Hope that's true for me too.  Good luck.

I don't know if there is a problem with the interface between the two or not, but it really doesn't seem to matter if I'm on the VPN or not.  Even if I'm not on the net, just out of the blue I'll get that little icon in the tray that says I can't connect/or am not connected.  This will happen if I'm just surfing the net without VPN, with VPN but without being on the net, or even when I just turn on the computer.  Sometimes I have to reboot 10 times before I can connect.  Any ideas or suggestions would be great.  THANKS for your expertise in this area.  :>)

Slow computer, told need more RAM
My computer now has been really slow lately and checked and found to have 768 MB, told I need to increase to at least 1.5 or 2 gb which my computer can handle. My question is this, since it is gonna cost me approximately $140 or so, is this worth it, will I be able to tell the difference in the speed? Right now I am sitting waiting for some words to appear on the screen, very frustrating. Thanks!

Question about transfering computer into to another computer.. sm

I have a dumb question - Just bought a new computer and someone told me to get a flash drive to transfer all my info.  But I'm assuming that ExText that I work off of and Escription will have to be downloaded again by the tech people onto my new computer.  I can tranfer these can I?


Thanks


How does one find out the computer specs on my computer?

I should know this, but I just don't remember how to do this.  I am hoping I have enough RAM, or whatever, to load work platform on my own computer and begin working on it, rather than paying *rent* on the company-furnished computer.  Thanks so much.


A computer is a computer, whether it be laptop or desktop.
I have both and use both and I bought both of mine...most companies do not provide computers...

Hi,


Just wondering if anyone had any info on Med-Tech in Lousiana. I didn't see any good or bad in the archives. Thanks!

Med-Tech

Hi Bobbie,


Thanks for your input. Their schedule didn't work for me anyway-they were going to hire me without even doing an interview! I hope you had better luck in whatever you chose next.

Did you like being a vet tech? I'd like
to hear more about it, if you don't mind.
oh yes, but the tech guy did all that for me.
Can't really help you much in that way, but you can get it online, I think that's what he did.  It has junk mail files, suspected junk mail files, and then of course my "wanted" email file.  I'm not very computer "savvy" so that's why I needed help.  But it looks to me like you can just go to SpamBayes and load it. I know it has a "wizard" to load it.  Good luck because this spam thing has gotten way out of hand.  Should be a law against it!  Maybe someone else has heard of it, maybe try the technical help board if you can't get it to work.  I'm sorry that I can't help much more than that.  But yes, in answer to your question, you can set up your email as you would like.  Good luck, and hope this helps.
Hey, you tech MT's, help please.

I got a LinkSys router at Wal-Mart and with tech help, I got my Vista computer and other computer going at the same time; however, I unplugged the cable from the phone jack one night, as it was storming, and could not get both computers back on line after that.  I actually have returned the router and doing without for now.


I would like your experiences and any help that you could give me. I have used cable router before, but not for phone line -- DSL.  Thanks.


I would think the tech could do it. At my
former job they were able to switch them from Medscribe to DQS.
Must say, as former vet tech myself, that

maybe posted this on wrong board earlier:


I have a daughter vet in another state that would like me to transcribe her work.  Is there is way to do this via digital and/or a call-in dictation system without going through an MTSO?  Any suggestions? I'd sure love to be able to do that for her!


Need tech help, anyone!
Help!  I have my expansions in Word 2003 autoaorrect, called MSO1033.acl file.  I wanted to transport this file to another computer using Word 2007.  I got it over to the other computer, have installed it in the proper directory, and have renamed the Word 2003 file so it is called MSO.acl, which is what Word 2007 calls it.  Yet, when I open Word 2007 on the destination computer, my expansions are not there.  The file is showing in the directory, verified by my last date of change before I moved it, and is more than three times the size of a normal .acl file.  Can anyone tell me what boat I'm missing here?  Thanks, appreciate it.
What about an x-ray tech? Seems like there

MT becoming RAD TECH

I have heard MTs switching over to nursing, coding/billing, but has anyone else considered training for Radiology Technology.  I was considering this but found out the course work is very intense for 2-3 years while working in the hospital as an intern.  Can't do it now but still considering it in the future.  I hear the demand is only growing in this field and can't see it being outsourced. 


Med-Tech, Mediscript in LA

Any info on these companies would be appreciate-I haven't found very much yet. Thanks!

TRS, SoftScript, Med-Tech

Hi,


Just wondering if anyone has worked for any of these companies. I'm down to making my final choice. Thanks!

Tech support will help you set up a

Re: tech support
I don't know if it gets back to our supervisors, but I wish it would get back to theirs! What I do now is tell the "real winner" support person that I have to hang up suddenly. Then, I call right back. I suddenly get a different one who is a whiz and very helpful. It's worth the hang-up and call back unless you have to wait 45 minutes for the next "helpful tech." ;-)
Help on tech board please!

Seriously need help on the Tech Board
Cannot open hyperlinks.  Popups open as blank white pages.  Can't find help on Microsoft.  HELP!!!
Check with tech there. sm
I don't remember if I asked or not, but I did import my shorthand files into ExText, so I didn't have to start from scratch.

Good luck! I hope you're as happy with Amphion as I am!
Cardiac tech here....

Not sure what you mean by weird heart murmur.  That should have been checked at least with echocardiogram.  I'm thinking mitral valve prolapse which can cause chest pain and exercise symptoms but is generally benign. 


At  your age and being female it is highly unlikely it is cardiac disease.  They would probably do an EKG while you're having the pain and check enzymes. 


Chest pain is very very common and often is not cardiac.  It's cause is unclear, sometimes costochondritis, sometimes GI, sometimes just unknown.


You still need to see a physician very soon to determine if NSAIDs or other simple meds (Protonix) are the answer or more tests are needed.

A4 Tech antiRSI
I've done the MS natural and also the Kinesis but I keep coming back to this thing. It has pyramid shaped keys that seem to be a little bit closer together than a normal keyboard. It only costs around $7 at Dealsonic. I should probably pick up another one for back up.
med-tech company
Has anyone heard of this company?  It is out of Marietta,Georgia.  Any information would be appreciated!  Trying to pick up some part time work.
Vet tech/transcriptionist
That's interesting...I used to be a vet tech in the '80s and got tired of not being able to explain to the animals why I was causing pain. I also like more focused work. Loved radiology so now radiology Transcriptionist for 15 years. So you and I had flip-flopped career paths...good luck on this new endeavor as a veterinary assistant.

Histology Tech Job

Does anybody know anything about this job, i.e., ins and outs, good and bad, know anyone who has done it, etc?  I am trying to find a "better way" than MT but no clue as to which direction to go.  I also wondered about surgical scrub tech job.  Willing to do a 1-year certificate school but don't know about 2 years of school.  Any info would be much appreciated.  Thanks.
