Let's try something else first. Are you able to install Vista on either a
separate "test" computer, a second hard drive in your computer or at the
very least, a separate partition. If you can answer yes to one or more of
these, email me. If you don't know how to make a partition, that's okay.
But we are not going to have only Vista on your only computer, because that
leads to bad karma, ants and unknown lipstick cases in your glove box.We'll
get through this together.
And I'll let you and every one else in on a little secret: I have no formal
training in computer science, only what I have picked up by "trial by fie,"
reading and using my brain. There are many regular posters of whom I am in
absolute awe of in this forum, because their knowledge and their abilities
are far and above mine. And I probably have been flamed more on this forum
than most people. But I appreciate the compliment.
