· Quote

This is very important information that I want to advise everyone about if you are a Windows user and your system has an AMD processor.

Windows has released Service Pack 3 and I have read about all the problems that have occured for many people since installing it.

Some problems that may happen include,computers not starting up,going through endless reboots,"the blue screen of death",running slowly and freezing up.

I am definitely not installing this service pack and configured my system so it won't install it through automatic update.

Here is a link to the Microsoft forums,where there is a lot of discussion on this issue.............

"the blue screen of death"


Love that term though it does strike fear when ya see it.  Don't fret, Natalie, I am jes as *stupid* as you are.  I know just enough about computers to be dangerous.  Just ask the IT dept at work or the DH.  How many times has he heard me utter "Oh, no, what did I do?" before seeing this ~
