My son had "something" attack his computer, to the point it would not do anything ... nothing would open or run. They were messing around with it one nite before work, and one of the guys suggested taking the battery out, and replacing it ... no, not a new battery, the same one, just separate it from the machine, and put it back in again. Don't know why it worked, but it did. He was able to use the disk and reboot to the factory settings. Sure he lost everything that was on it, but it does work.
Trouts don't live in ugly places.
A friend is not who knows you the longest, but the one who came and never left your side.
Don't look back, we ain't goin' that way.
