I cant even begin to tell you how frustrated I am! boooo!
For starters, I have a problem with Internet Explorer (or some mutation of it): I cant download anything from net...and I mean ANYTHING! Not even a file that could help me with this jam.
The normal windows I.E has been replaced with a "windows live" explorer thing. all the normal features like , file, edit, view,favorites, etc...have been replaced by buttons for windows live gallery, msnbc, msn butterfly, faves for windows live, groups, a hammer (help I assume bcz clickin it does nothing!!) as well as a help button (a questionmark icon--it does nothing either when clicked.) On the title bar at the top, and the task bar below just has a letter E with cirlce (IE icon).
If thats not cool enuf to garner sympathy..while typing this, I realize I cant use the delete button (have to use the backspace) and I cant right click to copy&paste. WEEEE!!
Someone suggested going into the control panel, and clicking the internet options file there...well that would be great..if I could actually OPEN the folder!!!! I click..it just sits there..stares back at me thinking, "What an idiot."
Soo..if my download issues, my defunct basic windows capability and inability to access internet options all combined, arent a whirlwind of excitement...I have no windows xp disk to reinstall anything if that is the answer to this dilemna! or if havin me go download was the answer..cant do that obviously.
Im so thrilled, I could just stab my eye out with a red pen.
A regcure 1.52 was run to see if it would fix anything. it really didnt. A sys.restore a couple diff times didnt help either. I have win xp with service pack 3 by the way..
Here I am , in all my glory...whimpering and waiting for someone to guide me away from tossin my computer. Any takers?? Anyone?
..please??...
