Little prob that i've now mostly fixed ,but still need a few pointers
Heres what happened
During my usual weekly mantinence,disc clean up etc ,all went well till i restarted
Disaster -somehow my system drivers had ended up in the recycle bin,how, i've no idea, i didnt do anything different,and do a clean up once a week
After the restart i had to do a complete reinstall of windows xp without any chance to back stuff up and it wouldnt let me use repair :?
---------------------------------------------------
I'm up and running though it takes a lot longer to boot up,and i think its uninstalled my graphics card or at least the drivers as i cant use any game and scrolling is no longer smooth[i think im on some default set-up]
I dont want to uninstall then reinstall the graphics card or update the driver till i know im not going to end up with a black screen
Any help or pointers would be appreciated
Thanks
----------
all this happened about 2am last night and during my efforts to reinstall everything....toothache set in,and with a vengeance too,seems i had an abscess that was waiting for just the right moment
Lower canine out this morning @9:40 am
Those injections that you get under your tongue that really F*&%ing hurt, i got three,and left their chair with one of the arms slightly squint[i think i broke it
