Fiddlesticks

My wifes computer crashed. Again. Crazy thing, it crashed a week or so ago and refused to boot up into XP either in normal or safe mode. I played around with it for a couple of days and finally got it back into booting up. It ran fine for a few days and then, last night, decided it didn't want to boot up. Again. So now here I am, back to square one with the silly thing. It has no recovery options on boot up so that makes it a bigger pain. I shall play with it some more, see if I can get it up and running once more. Hopefully I can get it straightened out enough that it works until I can get her a new computer. Wish me luck, me and computer repairs are not on the best of terms...
