Sorry to hear about your XP problems. Odd thing though, the only person I know with problems also is using a laptop. I have no proof but I think it may be to do with power saving and battery voltage. Whenever his problems arise it's always after a power down after he's left it on battery too long.

I also bought a Toshiba laptop last year with XP. Its been as god as gold for 14 months now. Every PC/Laptop I have had previous I have had to rebuild every 6-9 months. But this laptop and XP have been problem free.

Good morning Jeffmack, are you at work again? Up and posting so early in the day can't be good for you. Why are you such a disaster area for computers, I've only had two in ten years, and only got the second one as an upgrde. Only ever had one failure and that was a hard disc went duff.
Sounds like your Toshiba is a good machine though. Our company is currently buying Acer machines. When I was with the MoD they were a recommended supplier and that was on the basis of build standard. Mind you that was ten years ago.

Moat Microsoft programmes are generally termed bloatware. If you think back, right from Windows 5.1 upwards, most MS operating systems and apps have required large increases in disk space. I'm interested to know what space XP requires, I bet it's a big increase on the Windows ME I have at present.

How could you go to Kempton to see smelly horses when you could watch girls in short skirts with two balls in their hands?

You should never comment on peoples personal preferences, it's impolite.

Sorry I missed you last night, I was busy doing the genealogy bit. I did pop in earlier in the evening but there was no one about so I went delving into the past.
Hope you are both well but I have to say I don't like this hot weather. Roll on winter, I say.
