sigh…. No, guess not! The Mr says I have to take it to the ‘doctor’ first. If he can’t cure it, then, can I shoot it?
Y’know….it’s bad enough having to reboot all the time, but at least I was able to be wireless. Now? I’m attached to the umbilical cord. FAR away from the coffee pot!
I stayed up way to late last night, slept way too late and woke up with a headache, and now this? Let’s just say I’m not having a real good day!
Ok, I’ve decided this day is going to get a LOT better. Not sure how, but I have spoken! Dadburn it!

I’m no computer expert, self taught mostly with some help from a friend who is an IT Guy.
I was having problems all the time. He told me to do these tree things often.
Delete all cookies at least once every 2 weeks. You can find that in your menu bar, click tools then click internet options. Delete History and cookies.
He then told me to run the Disk Defragmenter, clean all Disk listed (I have 2) then he told me to run the Disk Clean Up every week.
I also have a software program that runs a quick clean twice a week.
Since doing those few things I have not had any issues except self inflicted ones. LOL
As I said, I am no expert, it did work for me. You will have to re-enter logins and such.
Good Luck
If it were only that simple. LOL I actually clear everything once a week…..sometimes every few days, and yet… sigh…. I run scans, fix this and that, just hoping not to have issues. Seldom works for me though.
Now, it’s the issue of my wireless connection. And that is something I can’t fix. Stupid computer. The Mr had a similar problem and had to take his to the doc.
Since my desktop is a dead duck, I’m just hooked up to that spot. 
You have spoken?? ROFLMAO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
That never worked with me, why would it work with a “DAY”? lol
Ah…but see…. I CAN control me.
You…on the other hand….pfft!
I love my lap top, it is a pain sometimes. The Desk top I have is still new and problem free. Knock on wood.
I truely hope it gets better.
Oh, I love having a laptop…..wish it didn’t weigh so much though. LOL Just need to get my desktop fixed first, so I can take the laptop in and then I’ll be all set……for a while. LOL A new one really isn’t in the forecast right now….no matter how much whining I do. Heh.
