Won't smog I was told to drive it 75 miles at 2,000 RPMs. I did that, and it didn't reset computer.

So, I assume the monitors are not resetting? This can be tricky to do sometimes, let the engine get cold and then drive it again. You want to cycle the systems from hot to cold a few times which can get the monitors to reset.
