What do YOU think?

My thoughts ...

Get your system to work well enough to get you through the week. Don't start your fixes until Friday night.

Once you get your system stable, get yourself a copy of DriveImage or a program like it and make a copy of your disk. Guard it like gold.

Take the time to record, on paper, the settings you have. If you never need them, you've wasted some time. If you ever need them, you've saved hours, or maybe days. Don't forget BIOS settings too.

Get a utility suite, like Norton. It contains programs which will check your system and warn you of impending disasters. It will also correct lots of stuff before it causes problems.

And finally, upgrade every Microsoft program you have. (I own MSFT shares. [Grin])

Cheers, PW.

P.S. You should be able to find DiskImage and Norton stuff for $50 each.
