Oh I forgot to tell you GMan, when I went to Windows Update, it said there was an update for my Samsung lcd monitor, also 8 software updates (altho 2 of these pertain to IE 7 which I'm not running). Any advice?

Before I did that, I went to PcPitstop and scannned my drivers to be sure they were all up to date. One wasn't . I found it on line and installed it. A few small things happened but my puter has never run better.

He did this after trying to install the normal way and all the pcs in his home crashed. So from the link I downloaded that .iso and have burned it to CD and yes Roger, I DID it as an IMAGE file, lol. I sure know how to do that now, lol. I have no idea how to install it and am just going to leave that for another day anywho.........cause I have too much going on all at the same time right now. Wow, these program Companies and Microsoft don't play very well together do they? And to think that it takes such a complicated thing to supposedly make our lives easier??? Not so sure anymore.
