OOPS I was wrong, he updated Vista....and it is still dead....
I have a Mac and put in a new operating system and updated without any problems......I just don’t understand why Microsoft can’t get this stuff right...
This is not a my system is better commentary because I actually like both....it is just frustrating for PC users.....
I just got the Mac laptop working again. The battery went bad, had to drive an hour to the Mac shop to get the battery replaced, then a month later, the recharger cord broke. Had to wait a week to get a new one. We just got every thing working and now the Windows laptop is down.
This is the first time an update has adversely affected me, and I’m not 100% sure that it was the problem, I’ll have to dig into the problem tonight after work.
It is set for automatic updates - I shut down and rebooted several hours later at which time it finished configuring updates. Later, I came on FR, clicked on one article and the mouse icon looked like a little page of type - computer frozen. ALT/CTRL/DEL had no effect (nothing did). I removed the battery and power cord to shut it off.
Two hours later, it is still the same. If I put in the battery or power cord I still have a black screen. The computer is "running" - but nothing.
I'm trying to find something on ms groups but decided to come here first.
I cannot run the restore disks - nothing.
