Yes I do and the wine didn't help!

Thanks all

I've used Lona's link

Had a fright this morning as I had lost Windows, my youngest son is always very quick to suggest a reinstall

I asked why he had so many A levels

within an hour he had found the computer's brain

So if I'm not here tomorrow you will know why! son will be at work

and I will be pacing the floor!

Always worth trying repair mode in Windows setup before declaring it dead.

Couldn't get to it.

If you have a Windows CD or DVD insert it and it'll usually offer if it detects a Windows install.

Do have one, but that wouldn't work either! not sure what son did

Arrived this morning, so I will be busy

but can I trust it

Well it's doing it's job

Because we can? We all do it, Jill.

I have six plugs and I'm still short! I hate trailing wires

Rik · Feb 03, 2011, 11:26:44

I've lost count in here.

J!ll · Feb 03, 2011, 11:29:09

You can never have too many plugs! I always insist in a double in each corner but that's not counting what the pc needs

If I can, on the next house, I'll have a row of points along an entire wall.
