A reply in the LAB

Read it and replied - thanks

Same Difference

Did you manage to sort your computer out Lin?

Lionda

Thanks to Tim talking me through it on msn yesterday I got rid of a lot of nasty spies which had crept into the system but still getting the error message Still....at least it is working faster now and hopefully someone may come up with a solution

As I told you in my previous post the ONLY way to get ride of the registry error message permanently is to reinstall Windows. Anything else is just a quickfix which is not going to stabilise it on a longterm basis. Total waste of time!
You need to backup all your personal data NOW before Windows falls over completely.

Lionda

Thanks Pete, I'll look into that. Going out now so will try and work out how to do that when I get back. Thanks for your input

XTreme

Try and come to the Huescar meet and bring the POS with you like SD is doing Lionda!

Lionda

I'd love to Pete, but sadly it isn't possible to come to the meet Thanks for the offer though

Any luck yet ?

Lionda

Still getting the error messages At least the pc is still working, and is a lot faster since I followed Tim's advice and installed spybot. I'm dubious about going back to factory settings, think I'll wait until we get back to the UK in case something goes horribly wrong

POS = Pile of Shit ?? Seriously is the term you use ?

XTreme

What other term would you give your average mass produced PC with a failing Windows installation?
Compact and bijou art decor appliance benefitting from a range of cutting edge Microsoft software, located in a delightful environment within walking distance to beaches and golf courses?

andyrich666

Depends if im selling it, if I am its the best PC ever, if not then POS spring to mind for sure

SPANISH COMPUTERS


A Spanish Teacher was explaining to her class that in Spanish, unlike

English, nouns are designated as either masculine or feminine.

'House' for instance, is feminine: 'la casa.'
'Pencil,' however, is masculine: 'el lapiz.'


A student asked, 'What gender is 'computer'?'

Instead of giving the answer, the teacher split the class into two
groups, male and female, and asked them to decide for themselves
whether computer' should be a masculine or a feminine noun. Each group was asked to give four reasons for its recommendation.



The men's group decided that 'computer' should definitely be of the
feminine gender ('la computadora'), because:

1. No one but their creator understands their internal logic;

2. The native language they use to communicate with other computers is
incomprehensible to everyone else;

3. Even the smallest mistakes are stored in long term memory for
possible later retrieval; and

4. As soon as you make a commitment to one, you find yourself
spending half your money on accessories for it.



(THIS GETS BETTER!)



The women's group, however, concluded that computers should be
Masculine ('el computador'), because:

1. In order to do anything with them, you have to turn them on;

2. They have a lot of data but still can't think for themselves;

3. They are supposed to help you solve problems, but half the time
they ARE the problem; and

4. As soon as you commit to one, you realize that had you waited a
little longer, you could have got a better model.


The women won.
