Well thanks to the help from my friend, Reverend Ash M Cairo, I'm now back up and running with Windows XP Pro... and it appears all my computer problems have been resolved. I was going to post this last night around 11pm... but my cable decided to go down around that time for some reason. Go figure. Now, to just figure out how XP works... and then to pack for my weekend trip. I'll be back Sunday night folks. Have fun.
