You are lucky, I guess. My garbage work machine dies 2 or 3 times per shift for no reason. Vista is a pig.
Hopefully the AF will phase in 7 ASAP.
Hopefully it will work.
I miss my old 2001 machine that never died.
There’s always a reason, and I’m sure I could fix it. People just like to blame the OS when it isn’t at fault.
You need to report this up through the INOSC or at least email the support alias for desktops in teh air force. hit me on freepmail if you need the email address.
