I dropped coin and snagged the upgrade for Windows 7. It’ll let me do this now, so all is not lost. I didn’t go the way I usually do, and install from the beef straight up. I told it to take my existing system and… make it better… HA… Well, about four clicks on setup.exe and a short 3 hour nap, the bastard finally figured out what to do and it did it.
Things so far seem to be working, I can run the TV program and go to sleep watching interesting stuff, and wakeup to infomercials just like before.
Apparently I can blodge badly, and I can still cuss it. I reckon I got my moneys worth.
Y’all have a good one, and I hope, if you upgrade, instead of reinstall, it goess almost as painlessly for you as it did for me. Be patient, and persistent, ’cause it is a bit stubborn. I had to ask it “to” about 3 times before it got serious about it. Kinda like my ol’ lady… in that regard. I had to uninstall my printer, then when I said “give me the goods” again, it told me it knew about my printer. I’m still kinda iffy on the printer/scanner/copier… I’ll see what happens with that later, I’m just happy I won’t miss my morning infomercials… Got Danged, what would I do without those?
You all should try it sometime in your life. The gulf stream, is as deep blue and clear as deep blue gets. The flyin’ fish… they’re just entertainment.
My favorite quote:
A 120 quart cooler – this is the minimum size I would take. When a dolphin is brought aboard, it needs to go directly to the cooler where someone can sit on the lid until he calms down. A dolphin flopping around on the deck of a boat will break tackle and bones. Put him in the cooler!
I hope he don’t kick my beer.
