I am your average run of the mill taught myself how to turn on a computer old man. I bought a computer 5 years ago and proceeded to crash it many times over the next two years trying to teach myself how it worked. I can work it OK now but please don't ask me to explain what I did. Is your system a DOS type OS, a Windows 95 type OS or what. I am running Windows 95 right now but if I could find an OS that wouldn't give me error messages saying I have committed an illegal function every time I am sitting there waiting for a program to load, well. In my imagination only I keep thinking Microsoft isn't the only one out there that knows how to develop and OS for a computer. I sure hope I have made myself clear about what I am asking you. I tried to sound like I know some thing even though I don't.
