Donk, I'm responding to you on the site because I can't respond from my gmail account.
To recap the situation, we were in the process of opening in Safe Mode to see if the Program list was available from there. I had asked how to open in Safe Mode and you responded to hit F8 until it opened. Then you responded about accessing from the Accessories folder which I couldn't do because I didn't have the list. Okay, this morning when I opened my computer I had the message asking if I wanted to open in Safe Mode or go to Restore. I decided to go Safe Mode to see if the list was there and it was. Then I went to restore from accessories on the list and restored back to June 4. The computer closed and then opened and, after a considerable wait, the list appeared. Happy Day. Okay, I started to do my usual and opened Firefox to check my gmail accounts and everything was super slow (actually it's been that way for a couple of days)and although I finally opened gmail and looked at my messages I haven't been able to reply. It says "Loading rich text" and shows Loading but nothing happens. I'm able to open my forums but can't reply to emails. I've been aware that I probably need more Ram since I currently have 2G and my computer will take 4G. Also my sound card is failing or has failed. If I could remember how to open the box I could probably take care of this but in the meantime I don't really want to be without the computer for any length of time. Sorry this is so long. I'm running XP and that's the reason I'm hanging on because so many of my programs won't run with the newer Windows versions. I usually get a new computer built every five years and it's at least six now. Okay, I have Trend Micro on my computer and a Spy program and the scans don't show anything wrong but do you think it's some failing on the computer itself Holly ------------------------------------ If you have any questions or problems with any aspect of this site, please feel free to contact me directly bi...@optonline.net Please do not post personal issues directly to the group.
