  Anyone Else...?

  ...having serious issues with GS lately? For the last two days, every time I open up my web browser GS takes ages and ages to load and then sometimes won't load at all.

  Today I helped form a new union yet it remains on my union list like I haven't joined and I cannot add it to my favorites board nor can I remove another board off my favorites board...

  Also when I go to change a page I get a blank white page fairly frequently, anyone else getting this?

  I must note that the majority of the start up issue is on Firefox, but Safari seems to have no problems starting it up.

  Note: This isn't really a big deal, I am just wondering if others are having some of the issues I am having.

  Computers...

  ...can't live with them, can't live without them. I finally managed to find the folder off my former C drive that I wanted...there are some things missing from it, but it has the majority of stuff I was wanting. It was obvious that Windows had corrupted itself. Once when hubby was trying to do something on his computer, he accidentally installed Windows XP on both drives (I think something went wrong on C, so he installed it on D to fix C...) anyway, once he solved his problem the computer would not let him reformat the drive he wanted to because Windows was installed on it. He had to delete the folders before it allowed him to reformat.

  My point to that story was, after finding the folder I wanted, I opened up My Computer, right clicked on the D drive (which used to be my C drive) and selected Format...did a quick format and expected it to tell me it couldn't...it did the format no problem, so obviously there was something wrong with Windows. I will never know what caused it because I know I didn't touch anything in the Windows folder the day before. I firmly believe it wasn't a virus/trojan/whatever as Kaspersky would have told me, and once I installed Windows XP and Kaspersky on my former D drive (which is now my C drive) I ran a thorough scan through both discs (before I reformatted the old C drive) and it didn't find a single virus/trojan/whatever.

  I also had to go through my now C drive and delete all folders that belonged to my games. I do not install my games on the same drive that Windows is installed on. So, I now only have one game on that I installed this afternoon. I'm not a happy camper, I am not looking forward to reinstalling some games and going through all the stuff again...maybe I'll just give up and forget computer games (too bad some of them are not available on the 360, then I wouldn't have any issues).

  On another note, I bought Viva Pinata: Trouble in Paradise yesterday. I've played it a bit, but have gone back to Dynasty Warriors 6 as there are only two achievements left and I haven't unlocked any off of the new Viva game...so, it'll have to wait.

  Might be off for a couple days

  I am currently on the laptop as I type this. I went to turn my PC on this morning and it got to the Windows XP loading screen, flashed a blue screen then restarted. It won't even start in safe mode unfortunately. This means I will most likely have to reinstall Windows for the upteenth time. I am getting thoroughly irritated by this. Hubby is blaming all my problems on games. I don't think it is the games...but I could be mistaken. So, if I am not around the next couple days much you will now know why.
