What can be problem, ?

Sorry but in my opinion you are getting involved in something that isn't your problem or fault. There are too many variables. Whether the celling fan is old and components are worn or it is new and wasn't installed correctly. Dropping a heavy box on a floor will not break a bulb cover. Improperly installing a bulb cover will cause it to fall. If the lights are flickering either the bulbs are loose or on their way out or the wiring is not secure. This is not your fault. Ask an electrician for a second opinion if you must. Don't take responsibility for something that isn't your fault. Floors are constructed to hold lots of weight (groups of people, furniture and appliances) The act of dropping a heavy box will cause a sound and a vibration. A heavy commercial truck driving by or kids running through that room could have caused that loose cover to fall out as well. Also the box hitting the floor will not affect or damage wiring. If the wiring is damaged it was already an issue and definitely had nothing to do with you. Maybe you feel that you have to to keep the piece. Obviously the choice is yours but at least I have helped give you an opportunity to make an informed decision. Good Luck.

How to install a light fixture in the ceiling

On the ceiling round disc there is a nut you need to spin it down and make it go over the chain and hook this will drop the disc and expose the wiring, and the support bracket with the screws going into the box. Make sure the light is switched off before doing any work on it. Then you need to remove the wire-nuts and take screws out. Have some-one hold the light as it will be heavy. The new light should install just the opposite. And if all else fails check the instructions. :)

Connect to network wirelessly with in 20 feet when go down to second floor network indicates no internet , but it can find router , run network trouble shooter but not much , dell has not helped ...

Hello
Signal is either too weak or something is causing it to drop out.You can try a reboot of the router.
If this doesnt work then you may need to get a wireless switch to pick up the signal from the first floor to the second.Which will need to be located in an open area like stairs.Metal decking and flouresent lights can cause the signal to drop.

Or you can buy a cable and hardwire it.Or a stronger router with a better signal.

I need to move a folding treadmill down a flight of stairs. Its too heavy. Can it be taken apart?

Your best bet is to employ a couple of strong men- Yes its heavy, so find ones with backbone, not just ones that think they are strong. You don't want your hardwood floors scratched...all the weight is at the mtr hood, turning it sideways then out the door. just make sure the incline is in the down posistion before folding up!

Can this be installed over an island?

Bring a focal point to your kitchen by having an island range hood, combining function and elegant form. A suspended hood is also an efficient way to vent
grease, odors and smoke to the outside from a island stovetop while you cook. You can install an island range hood in just a few hours with the right tools
and knowledge.
1.Wear safety glasses and work gloves. Turn off the electricity to your kitchen at the circuit panel. Cover the circuit breaker with a piece of electrical
tape to prevent people from turning the on switch while you are at work.
2.Lay work drop cloths on your cooktop and floor to catch dust and debris. Mark the duct opening with a pencil in the ceiling, where the island hood will be
installed. Be sure the opening is centered directly above your cooktop. Cut the opening using a hacksaw.
3.Go up to the roof, using a cat's claw and hammer to remove stucco, tiles, sheathing and insulation to make way for the steel venting duct. Drop a
plumb bob down the roof, making sure the line is straight down for the ductwork.
4.Follow the manufacturer's instructions for locations, installing 2-by-2 wooden blocks in the ceiling to hold the ductwork hangers.
5.Install the venting duct from the outside of the home, down to the location of the exhaust vents on the island hood. The ducts should easily slip into each
other. Secure all the duct sections with duct sealing putty, using a putty knife.
6.Screw a roof cap on the end of the duct at the roof. Seal any openings or gaps where the roof, ceiling and duct meet with silicon sealant. Let the sealant
dry, then paint with colors matched to the surrounds.
7.Place your hood upside-down on the floor, with the fan and filter facing upward. Locate and unscrew the metal electrical box cover on the island range
hood, to expose the wiring
8.Install the hood cover to the load-bearing ceiling frame with the package hardware through the four inside mounting corner flanges on the cover.
9.Measure what will be the distance from the bottom of your hood to the cooktop; it should not exceed 30 inches for exhaust efficiency. Have a helper hold
the hood in place while you attach the hood on the hood cover using the included screws. Use a level be sure the hood is level as mounted.
10.Connect the electrical wiring by consulting the manufacturer's suggestions or hire an electrician if you are not familiar with house wiring. Tuck the wires neatly in the hood electrical box and then replace the cover, after connecting the hood wires to the wall wiring.
11.Remove the electrical tape on the circuit breaker, turn on the electricity to your kitchen and test your island range hood.

Problem getting out a level

Mission Three: Union Station
Head through the hall and up the stairs and you will come out to the train yard. Hang a left and then enter the open door on the train. Go through the car and kill the enemies that appear and head out the other side. Enter the large building and a scene with more Kestrels will play. After the big bang, you are in for a tough battle with another Kestral and a few armed punks. After you get Kestrel down to the ¼ health mark, she will take off to a platform high above. Head forward to the ramp leaning against the train and climb it. Go left and slide across the rail to the train across from it. Make a left and run to the end of the train and jump to the pole. Swing to the pipe and climb up. Back jump to the next pole and swing your way over to the platform Kestrel is on.

After the scene, head back down and across the ground to the doorway on the far side at the other end. Enter it and follow the hallway through until you reach the set of stairs on the other side of the sprinklers. Follow the stairs up and then follow through the hallway until a scene plays that shows a catwalk collapse. Head up the stairs there and take out the punks and then make a right at the top to head up more stairs. When you reach the top, swing across the bars to the next platform and then halfway down the stairs. Jump to the staircase on the left and head up to the next platform and more poles to swing across.

Enter the vent at the end and follow it through to a large room you’ll drop into. When the Kestrel shuts the gate, you need to open it up. This part can get a bit tricky. What you need to do is toss a body into the electrical panels on each side of the door and make sure you have a body on each panel at the same time. When you do, the gate will open for you to go through. The easiest way is to use your hook and throw the bodies into the panels. You can try kicking them in but it takes a long time and getting two up like that will not work quick enough. Use the hook to throw them into them and then go through after it opens. Follow the opening in the wall around and through until you reach the staircase. Head up and take out the punks there.
Continue up the next set of stairs and make your way to the end of the corridor. Go through the door on the left and enter the hallway. Head left and drop down the hole at the end. Follow the next corridor along to a set of stairs and go up and up and up to the top floor. Head through the door and go up another set of stairs. Take out the punks here and then you’ll be in a room with a large window. After the scene hop through and head to the left and around the corner to the door there. Kill all the enemies in sight and then a scene will play as a guy comes through the door there. Kill him and then go through the door to trigger another scene.

Head through the door on the left after the scene and head through the room to the right. Drop through the opening and head down the stairs to the ground floor of the club. Look up to the right and there will be a large neon sign that says Strages. Target it and then toss up your hook to grab it and pull it down. When it crashes down, run through the door there and you will come to the dance floor. When the punks attack, you will need to toss one onto each of the four speakers in the corners. When you have a punk in each speaker, the dj booth will blow and you can escape the dance floor. Make your way up the stairs and again until you come to the floor with a doorway directly across from you. Enter there and take out the enemies inside.

Target the ceiling and then pull it down with your hook. Jump up the debris and head down the corridor to the opening at the end. Go to the fence directly in front of you and start wall climbing up to the top. Jump over to the closest scaffolding and take out the punk there. Go to the corner of it and rail slide down the pipe and again on the next one. Jump to grab the pole and swing over to the next platform. Make your way to the ramp and run down it to the catwalk against the wall. Run to the right and head up the spiral stairs. Kill the rest of the punks and then enter the gear room. After the scene climb up the pole in the room with your back away from the gear. Back jump off to the flat gear and land on it.

From there jump up and grab the pole and then swing over onto the next gear. Jump from that gear to the right and then from there to the pole above. Swing up the poles and then over to the gear beside the weight going up and down. Climb the pole with your back to the weight and wait for it to lower. Jump back on to it and ride it up. Now you will have a little scene with Ephemera. After the scene, you will battle her for a little while until another scene plays. After the speech Ephemera gives, the mission will end.
