Laura Don't feel bad about a mistake as common as that. I've done much worse. As a matter of fact, I claim the rights to any "Duh" awards presented on this thread. I doubt if anyone can top the first few months in my "computerized life". I ran through 6 or 7 computers before I learned enough to be able to follow simple instructions. I got so good at setting them up I thought about getting a side job. When these machines warn you not to do something you need to listen. The poor girl at circuit city that sold me my first and replaced them all and spent countless hours on the phone with me hated to see me coming through the door. I understand she quit shortly after my last visit. By the way, do you know how much racket a cdrom can make if you put a disk in upside down. Let me tell you....you'll think the computer is fixin' to blow. Nobody told me how to put the darn thing in so I figured it was sorta' like a record player and put the data side up(am I telling my age..lol...there's probably some folks here that have never seen a 45 or lp78). Your little mistake ain't bad at all. We appreciate you sharing it. tc :-)
