2nd time I am posting this, someone decided to delete my first message..When
I start windows and it reaches the blue screen (used to reach there faster by
the way, now it takes longer...) I cannot click on the 2 icons (Admin &
Guest). This will happen once every 5 times. Just had it happen twice ina
row this morning so i had to post.

Also, had an automatic update pop up on the bottom right (taskbar) clicked
download its been 1hr and still no install pop up has popped yipeee...Thank
god for OS competition lol..NOT

No one deleted your message. You can't see it because you are using the
web interface instead of a real newsreader. I gave you detailed help
about using a newsreader in a different thread, but since you
apparently can't find your own posts I'll give you the information
again. BTW, read carefully at least one of the links about "how to
post" so you see what kind of information to include in your post in
order to get focused answers. You haven't given enough information in
this post, for instance.

Since you are using the web interface, you may not realize that this is
really a newsgroup. You will get far more out of this resource if you
learn to use a newsreader. There are many good newsreaders for Windows,
but you can use Outlook Express since you already have it. Here are
some links to information about newsgroups:

There is no Scandisk in XP. There has never been Scandisk in any
NT-based operating system. Scandisk only appeared in Win9x/ME. Perhaps
you really meant to say "Chkdsk".

Once again, you haven't given enough information to get focused
troubleshooting answers. Here is the link for you to see what kind of
details to include in your post when requesting help for a problem:
