All of a sudden, my new computer wouldn't go 5 minutes without freezing up and it is now at my geek's for an "out of body experince." So, if you are missing me, know I'm missing you guys more! Hopefully, she'll have me up and running soon. In the mean time I may not be here much because it's hard to just use the phone to do this.

Don't you just have all the luck with computers... But you'll be back in business in no time, no doubt. Be patient.

I'm just a jinx I think, seems it was a bad thing masquerading as a Windows update!

It may be your RAM or your operating system that freezes your computer up. Try running it in safe mode and see if it does it as well. You can run variouse PC tweakers that you can download online. Hope your computer gets fixed soon.

honestly, we couldn't get it to stay running long enough to do those things, we tried... seems it was a software thing that masqueraded as a Windows update.

Sorry you are having trouble. You think when you get something new you don't expect to have problems with it. It is probably more frustrating when it is new. At least whatever is wrong with it might still be under warranty. It is suprising how dependant we become on things so quickly. I didn't have a computer till last year and now I don't know what I'd do without it. With any luck we'll be hearing from you soon.
