an example...just this week, some Explorer setting got mangled, and on reboot, the PC went into 'safe mode' and refused to display anything except 16 colors and a 640x480 window...but it would still work, so I went to Google newsgroups search and found several suggestions that I **DELETE** the display driver, and reboot...when Windows did not find the driver installed, it went and found it automatically and REinstalled it! Presto!

So, there are real experts out there, if you are willing to ask the right questions and do the searches..VERY few question have not already been asked and documented in technical newsgroups...**IT IS WORTH YOUR TIME TO LEARN HOW TO LOCATE, SEARCH AND/OR POST TO NEWSGROUPS**

if you do not already have this bookmarked, do yourself a favor!
