It looks like when VISTA service pack 2 was updating, the laptop went into sleep mode or had a hard shut off, corrupting the system. That is a big, long update, VISTA service pack 2. For some unknown reason, this disabled all of the drivers on the entire laptop, nothing was working. For example, it didn't recognize the audio, there was a red X on the little audio speaker icon in the lower right hand corner on every computer. The DVD drive, too, etc...<br /><br />The catch 22 is that this problem also would not let us manually enable the drivers on everything.<br /><br />With the service pack 2 update, there was also an update to the security feature that allows you to enable drivers. That particular update has a known bug in it that would cause you not to be able to enable your drivers. We got rid of that update, which then allowed us to enable the drivers on everything.Big Danhttp://bigdanblogger.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7594366310437242857.post-18990954090295759902010-02-25T21:25:42.189-05:002010-02-25T21:25:42.189-05:00Odd - I posted that right after my previous commen...Odd - I posted that right after my previous comment. 17 minutes later I came back and it was still trying to post. I reloaded the page and then it went.<br /><br />Mmmmmm - chicken on my new grille. I got a steal - $340 grille - 5 burners, side burner, cupboard underneath. I walked into Home Depot Saturday and the clerk was putting a sign on it - Clearance $149. I grabbed it right then and headed for the checkout. There went the last of my Christmas bonus, but after spending the rest of it on my kid's Christmas presents and groceries I figured I owed myself a treat. It was a display model - the only thing wrong with it was that it was covered in a thick layer of dust which wiped right off.<br /><br />I already splurged on made some steaks on it last weekend - came out great!BB2http://bluebear2.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7594366310437242857.post-61670770843938470392010-02-25T21:19:15.749-05:002010-02-25T21:19:15.749-05:00My gravitar is back, My gravitar is back!My gravitar is back, My gravitar is back!BB2http://bluebear2.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7594366310437242857.post-67678656052758871292010-02-25T21:01:14.515-05:002010-02-25T21:01:14.515-05:00I'll be sending you another snow storm after i...I'll be sending you another snow storm after it passes through here tomorrow.<br /><br />Yesterdays storm is also on its way!BB2http://bluebear2.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7594366310437242857.post-47923744638583768842010-02-25T20:59:51.557-05:002010-02-25T20:59:51.557-05:00See how you are?

Definitely back it up your site is a goldmine. and Vista sucks I have had huge problems with it and always after updates, it usually results in me having to do a system restore which usually works except for the one time it didnt and I spent a day futzing with my computer trying to get it to work again.Dougnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7594366310437242857.post-86950938202780078962010-02-25T18:25:06.146-05:002010-02-25T18:25:06.146-05:00Declining Conservatism Among Millennials Signals B...Declining Conservatism Among Millennials Signals Bad News for Fox News, Limbaugh<br /><br />http://www.pensitoreview.com/2010/02/25/declining-conservativism-among-millenials-signals-bad-news-for-fox-news-limbaugh/Big Danhttp://bigdanblogger.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7594366310437242857.post-41621213763483649312010-02-25T15:42:31.197-05:002010-02-25T15:42:31.197-05:00Voltaire

Did you know Ron Paul is against single payer OR any government intervention into health care? I agree that the Tea Party EXPRESS was formed to co-opt the real Tea Party of Ron Paul. And that was on purpose to call themselves that, it was genius, in fact, because just like they wanted they also are being referred to as the Tea Party (without the EXPRESS). They knew that would happen, it happened, they're genius agent provocateurs.<br /><br />But my question is to 99: how do you resolve that even the ORIGINAL Tea Party of Ron Paul, the members are for single payer and Ron Paul himself isn't? I think maybe they shouldn't call themselves Tea Partiers anymore if this is the case?Big Danhttp://bigdanblogger.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7594366310437242857.post-4682112261481592972010-02-25T14:34:36.693-05:002010-02-25T14:34:36.693-05:00As you can see, I'm just going through yesterd...As you can see, I'm just going through yesterday's comments. Personally, I do know a staunch Republican who worked for the government, has great health care coverage BECAUSE of the government, has a great pension BECAUSE OF THE GOVERNMENT, and is STILL you're typical staunch Rush Limbaugh-quoting Republican. This totally boggles my mind. THAT is why, because of FIRST HAND EXPERIENCE, I think some people (and some of the Tea Party) are absolutely a total waste of time to try and reason with them.<br /><br />And btw...one of those commenters, like I do, uses CAPS instead of italics. But it's not me, in case anyone thinks I mess around like that, I don't and never will. But I did notice that. Let me say this to everyone here: I would never NEVER do that, pretend I'm someone other than who I am. First of all, I'm sure everyone who comes here is too smart and would pick up on it.<br /><br />Here's why I use CAPS for certain words, and I never really thought about why I do that: it's easier than typing in the greater than/less than signs and all that crap.Big Danhttp://bigdanblogger.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7594366310437242857.post-2439199864766107532010-02-25T14:29:12.428-05:002010-02-25T14:29:12.428-05:00OK, some interesting comments yesterday from Theod...OK, some interesting comments yesterday from Theodore Keeling and Bobby Jickerson (?).
