Forgot that. Let me get a pitcher of water and toss it on the computer, just to be on the safe side.

Would it be OK to hijack this thread and ask a question about my office 'puter that keeps fucking up? Or should I start my own thread?

If you hadn't wanted it derailed you shouldn't have started it. :levi:

And anyway, it shouldn't have been dressed like that. :slut:

Shit. Since I posted that I've done so many things to try to solve the problem that just ass-splaining it would be more trouble than it's worth. I'll just send it back to university's IT squad. They've had it for 2 weeks now and 10 minutes after I turned it on, it started crashing and re-crashing in a non-stop cycle. Key point: I sent it in with Windows 7 on it and got it back with XP and somebody else's crap loaded on it, including a Korean browser. So I tried to download and install Vista. Apparently something went wrong to cause the re-booting cycle to start. I followed some instructions I got online, unchecked the auto restart box in safe mode, restarted and got this:

Something went awry while I was trying to install Vista, I guess. Still no clue what to do about it. I uninstalled Vista and it's still happening. :sigh:
