Looks like I’m going to put on my computer nerd hat and head off to the living room. I had plans to write something more here today, but Marcel’s niece popped in with their laptop that won’t start. They had tried to install a camera driver the other day, and the computer asked to reboot and when it attempted, it wouldn’t start Windows.. Of course, they are horrified that they’ve lost all their photos and such, and I hope that isn’t the case. I’m going to do what I can, but I’m no miracle worker.
The one thing that annoys me.. is that when they got the laptop- a friend of their step-dads decided they shouldn’t have Windows Vista on the computer so they installed XP over the Vista. SO far there hadn’t been any problems, but I have a concern that this has created some sort of conflict with the software.. I guess I’ll try to see if I can get it to boot in safe mode and go from there..
Wish me luck!
