The New York Times daily email which I crashed with at that time (9
October) is now deleted, but I just tried again a few minutes ago with
another NYTimes daily email which has not been deleted. I can confirm
that it still takes a long time to boot back up, because it crashed my
system again. No blue screen or warning, just a black screen, crashed
box. I don't know which one I tried to print, since position doesn't
survive a crash, but I am parking one now, so I'll know which one it
is.
OK, the attached message has brought my vista system down twice
tonight when I tried to print it to fineprint. Another message like it
did the same thing a couple of weeks ago.
It prints fine to the same printer on my xppro sp3 machine.
hope that helps.
