PC Woe


I've had a lot of computer problems lately. Grrr. Internet Explorer sort of died on me, I couldn't use Hotmail in the alternative browser I installed, and then a Windows XP server pack 3 (or something) installed itself on the pc and promptly deleted loads of stuff in the process! Important stuff too - like Spider Solitaire and all my games!!! and quite useful things too, like the calculator function. I did my VAT return last night and was reduced to doing all my sums on paper, like in the olden days. I mean... sums!!! Real, actual sums, in the 21st century and everything. Shocking.

So it has been a miserable time here, not being able to reply to emails (I could read them, but not write them... v annoying) and oh, I did miss my games. Mind you, I got bloody loads of writing done without them.

Today, though, I got a man round to look at it. He has sorted everything out for me, showed me loads of stuff this pc can do that I had no idea about (I've got a Media Centre, apparently, which was news to me) and generally waved a magic wand over it. From PC woe to PC wow. Ahhhh. Bliss.

And have I done any work since? Have I buggery.
