This reminds me of the verizon commercial where the guys is walking hip deep in the swamp still having signal. All of us have experienced dead zones near our own neck of the woods yet that damn swamp has connection. Forget Laos I cannot get access except satellite anywhere near my house. Lets get America hooked up then we can worry about somebody that probably wont use it anyway!!!!
I called Yahoo directly and tried to get them to resolve this, I ended up cancelling my phone because it cost so much per message. F yahoo, and I hope you didnt get my phone when it was free again if so sorry;)
Your system is crashing because you are using poorly programed games. I used to have most of those for my kids as well. I would think xp would just shut them down like 2000 does but who knows I'll never touch xp (drm concerns). But DO NOT take them off windows. Why restrict what they can and cannot put on their machines. Linux is not suitable for, nor does it have, an extensive childrens programs library. Plus Windows is what they will use in their adult life might as well have them learn something that might actually be on their desktop.
How can you think you so tchnologically advanced to be on/. and not have the sense to be able to fix your own car. I won't let anyone not a dealer or local shop. Dealer shops are just as sloppy and stupid as ant other shop. These codes would help tremendously at diagnosing problems.
The mainstream population can not use linux easily or efficiently. Windows is king of the hill right now, and by the time Linux gets as easy and efficient it will be just as big and ugly. Quit bashing or paycheck if it were not for the windows platform, nothing we did could reach millions of potential customers. It may not be great but it's the best we have!!
