I've decided to bite the bullet with my 'puter and do a factory restore (if I can) because it's totally screwing up on me and no matter what I do nothing is getting resolved...if anything it keeps getting worse. So if all goes well I'll be back and if not...well I'll be about because I can check the net on my Dad's 'puter now and again, but obviously it'll mean my computers nothing more than scrap. Oh well these things happen when you're skint eh?
