I'd had a computer crash a few weeks ago...

Oh, Lordy, I sympathize- starting around Thanksgiving, my old 130mhtz 486 went through assorted conniptions and then died.
( It had had several virus-caused crashes & problems before, going back about a year...)
My wife "liberated" a 450mhtz AMD K-6 from an abandoned office at work ( it had been cannibalized ) and after about a month of swapping drives, video cards, modems, and getting a newer OS, I finally got the damnable thing to work OK. It sure was annoying, and while my link and data files were saved to floppies, I lost a ton of personal stuff like emails. Computers can be such a pain!

BTW, thanks for looking!

At least this time, I was a little smarter and bookmarked your resources sites. In the event of another crash (shudder), I'll still have those bookmarks. Last time I just had my Iraqi file sort of favorites list - years in the making - but Freepers have been helpful in finding those older articles.

The good news is I got a brand new computer and can't get over the increased speed. Bought a Dell - even those I can't stand those commercials! Regards
