[nvda] Re: Problem with help areas in windows

well interestingly enough.
While I may be rough on ms even though if something really goes reformatting is 
the only way.
As each system comes along they get easier to run and less time to maintain.
I am running xp and everything with one system with avg at full and most things 
on automatic and I hardly have to touch it, a second system I hardly need to 
touch  to and a third system I hardly touch that I can't get easy access to 
actually runs ok and ofcause my system can be just dandy so I give that to ms.
