Re: OT - Computer Issues (aka \"blue screen of death\")
I've had ME on this machine since 01. Have never had a major crash, even through major hardware changes.
But minor crashes like this one yesterday.... countless. And the annoying thing is I end up fixing them and never really find out what the actual problem was. "Oh, look, I have apparently fixed it."
It seems that removing a certain amount of stuff from startup, reseating the vid and RAM, and whatever other 5hit I did in cleaning out the registry has got it up and running. Whatever.
Thanks to all who took the time to post. I honestly believe this is the friendliest community I've ever been a part of. Online AND OFFLINE, with the exception of maybe my church.
May-Your-Suns-Shine-Forever,
