Well maybe not below freezing but it was damn cold this morning, first ice covered windscreen I've seen this year.
I have been messing about with my PC now for the last two days trying to Windows XP to be my main OS. I first uninstalled windows XP, (Formatted it's partition). then I tried to upgrade Win 98 to XP. This seemed to be going ok untill I logged in. It was then I was bombarded with a rally of error message, software is not supported, drivers don't work. I got most of it working but there was still some problems with outlook express and outlook. I eventually sorted this by reupgrading windows, reinstalling internet explorer and outlook express (a lot of messing in the registry). Then i found another problem….windows explorer would not read my dvd drive. I tried to re-upgrade to XP and it was then everything got fucked up. I couldn't boot to windows anymore (even in safe mode) and Linux was not booting either. I eventually got into Linux using the install CD. I then got all the files i thought I wanted to save from the mounted windows partition (looking back I forgot loads). I then did a clean install of Windows XP which to my delight worked fine and I was able to boot into Linux fine after it too. I went into Linux and put my files back on the recently formatted windows partition. Super Duper I said untill I realised all the software I would have to install again. I spent all day yeaterday installing programs and i have just downloaded loads in college to install later. With look I will be good to go tomorrow sometime. What a Hoo Har. I'll have to catch up next week on college stuff.
