Favorite computer?

i prefer VR over transcribing and would love to find a company in need of my services. I have over 15+ years experience and I am one of the oddballs who does enjoy it. Of course, as an IC I prefer to work my hours and days as long as I get their requirement met for TAT, which is no problem. ...

I'm looking at everything from old IBM clackers to Kinesis to Logitech to those funky as all get-out flat rubber keyboards a poster below mentioned. Input anyone as to why a certain keyboard is your fave? ...

Hi all, I'd like to know your favorite MT software that you've worked with before. What were the pros and cons of it? We are looking to update our system from the old school mini-tapes that our MTs have to come in and get to something that'll allow them to stay at home and receive the dictations. Any and all help is greatly appreciated. LW ...

Thank you, dear doctor, for deciding that your account has to be 100% accurate, that the 98% industry standard is "lazy" and "impossible." I love that you decided there should be no numerals or ordinals in a medical report, that all numbers must be spelled out except the date. I appreciate how your secretary will fax in 4 pages to complain about one isolated, non-critical error while also calling the OM repeatedly about the same error. I enjoy that this leads to the OM calling ...

I have done the tutorials and been doing ASR for years and didn't know about the alt-K to break and capitalize. Maybe this old dog could learn one or more new tricks. Teach me everybody!! What are the best hot keys that really work? ...

As if we don't have enough BS to wade through and crap emails to read before trying to get a little money from them, I read an email that says "Here is a list of the previous MTIs that were renamed today." Really? Like that matters. If I am going to spend my own time reading the emails that seem more like a trap on how they can keep from giving my my bonus, I would rather read a specific instruction....not that someone got paid to change the name of the instruction. ...

I know this subject has been gone over before, but I need your opinion. I have spent the last week evaluating the line counting/invoicing programs out there, which I might add are few and far between. I really don't like any of them! LOL! Could some of you share with me your experiences? I appreciate the input! ...

No conscience, this LG, hired to slash, and slash she is good at! l shudder to recount all the I.D. numbers I've seen come and go from her matrices. If you were just switched to one of her accounts, beware, there is only one reason for that! She is on the AB (COM) team last I knew. ...

I've work on an account that 80% of the doctors dictate many abbreviations/acronyms that I have never heard of (I've been transcribing for 16 years). Some of them are very hard to find. Googling gives sites for acronyms, but mostly that is not helpful. A lot of them are not found in the Stedman's Abbreviations book or that particular field book. I spend an incredible amount of time trying to find these. Can you link me to your favorte site to fi ...

I read that Medmedx supplies computers but you can only have Cable or DSL connection. I live in an area where I cannot get cable or DSL. I have a wireless connection. My question is, do they allow you to use our own computers? Thanks for your time and have a great day? ...

The reason I ask this question is for my internet I have a USB modem. Do the computers supplied by Q have any extra USB ports so I can plug my Verizon in there? Thanks! ...

I am in the process of transitioning jobs and will be going from a company-provided computer to my own. Any suggestions on what software programs are needed, virus protection, word expanders, line counting, and hardware like foot pedal? The hospital I am looking into will be using Microsoft Word. Any comments on whether this is a good program or not to transcribe on? Any tips? I have been with the same company for 15 years, so have been out of the loop and need ...

On my Trans Tech application should I fill in favorite work types and favorite specialities or leave blank or put any? ...

I need a new computer however I need to have XP for EXText. Wondering which way I should go--- Dual boot or have 2 separate hard drives, one for XP and the other for Windows 7 Professional? Any advice? ...

I leave my computer up and running all the time. In the past week every morning I am having to reboot because I get an error saying "insufficient system resources to perform this action." As soon as it finally reboots, then everything is fine, I can log onto DQS and type all day with no problems. Then it sits again all night, and the same thing happens the next morning. Does anyone know what the problem might be? Tech support has already increased the virtual memory capa ...

for other things besides work such as another job, internet shopping, banking, facebook, etc.? ...

I got a new computer today and when my first job comes up the ADT info is at the top of the page. Can you tell me how to get it off. Also how to I make the print on my screen larger? TIA ...

I was just wondering how old some computers are that are having problems with 6.1 and if there are people with newer computers that handles it better. Mine is a MQ computer that is 4 years old now and it bogs down quite a bit. Everything is sluggish now. I do have 1 GB of ram and 1.84 GHz, so 6.1 shouldn't take a toll on it as bad as it is. I'm just wondering if I should ask the Q for an upgrade, if that is the problem. Knowing the RAM and proces ...

Need help! I don't use an MQ computer, since they don't want you to put anything personal on it, and most of my life, including banking, is on my computer. My 4-year-old computer crashed and is in the shop for a couple days, and I decided maybe it's time to get a new one. The problem is, DQS requires a 32-bit system, and so far all the new computers I've found are all Windows 7, which is 64 bits. I also want to get a slimline, since it kills my ...

I turned off the "check as you go" spelling feature to get rid of that distracting wiggly red line. When I upload a document, and a mis-spelling is picked up, what's with all the lame suggestions. I mean either there just aren't any suggestions at all for a simple mis-spelled word with a single wrong letter, or just a simple word. What happened to the old Q dictionary? It seems every 5 years their dictionary gets worse. When I started 10 years ag ...

I am looking at quitting MQ, and I'm using their computer...do you think they'll let me buy the computer from them???? I can't imagine it's cheap to mail it back to them, and will need a computer for my new job. ...

Does anyone use a Mac for medical transcription with Windows XP and MT software that requires nothing newer than XP? Also any experience with Windows XP and Medrite XL on a newer computer using Windows 7 and virtual xp? Needing advice before replacing my old computer, which I'm afraid might give out. I would just load XP but supposedly will be transferring to software compatible with Windows 7 sometime in the future. Any ideas appreciated. ...

Does anyone transcribe on a laptop computer and take your work with you when you travel? ...

came by FedEx today. Had no idea they were sending this. I quit or decided not to go with them from AT yesterday. Would think they would let me know they were sending a new computer. What a joke, glad I am not staying. Think they got so big they have no idea what's going on. ...

is there any kind of computer i should NOT consider getting to work for medquist? i think i heard they aren't compatible with MACs, but as far as PCs go....does Windows 7 work? Vista? XP? all of the above? just want to know what to avoid. thanks! ...

How do I change the color on DocQscribe from that blinding bright background to nice soft gray? I have no clue how on this machine and my eyes get too sore with the white. Also, how do I turn off all sounds, if anyone knows. Thanks in advance. ...
