Just got a Blue Screen of Death. I think I’ll run a virus scan and call it a night.

  1. I had a bout with Blue Screen Flu myself couple of months back, It appeared out of no where & kept re-appearing even though McAfee said there were no issues to resolve. Finally my E-Mail account on AOL was highjacked which I resolved by cancelling my account there & going elsewhere……could be a co-incidence but have not had a repeat of Blue Screen Flu since.

  3. Jimbo my friend…get an iMac. I don’t want to get into a Windows, Mac, Linux argument with anyone, but the fact is, driving Windows is like walking through a minefield, blindfolded, at night. You’ve got to be “way more” technical to keep Windows stable than a Mac. Trust me on this. A Mac will run underwater. You can do everything, and more, on a Mac you can do in Windows…the interface is just a little different, but very easy to learn. They might be a little more expensive, but you get what you pay for. There is a HUGE difference between the Mac OS and the Windows OS. and that’s what really matters.

    Are you going to the Blades this year?

  4. May or may not be a virus. Could be so many things it’s hard to say. Hope you get back online soon!

  5. I second Yabu’s comment. I’m done with PCs. My G5 Quad core monster box is all I need.

  6. Mac might be fine but I went with Linux. I got tired of dealing with all the overhead of keeping Windows from falling apart. Then it did one time. I went to the backup that came with the computer to get it reloaded and good to go and found that in order to get the backup to run when Windows is blown you have to have a working Windows. With Linux I don’t have to run all those security programs and it works just fine. Best of all the O/S is free as are almost all the optional stuff. Works just great.
