Guess what I did today??? No, I didn't watch HIMYM. Yet. Go on, another guess. No, I didn't go out either! Well, ok, I did in the literal sense. But not in the dinner, walk, chill out, movie/supper sense. I went driving again. Today was alright I guess. Then I went home. -Gasp- Big surprise. Haha. Then I stayed on FB for a while till Ben came over.

Yup, he came to fix my virus-hit, then half-reformatted computer. (The program icons stayed while the programs themselves did not. Funny huh?) The end result was total cluttered empty nonsense. AND the video driver was halfway back home to silicon valley, i.e. gone. Couldn't find any good replacements and nothing worked. So Ben installed windows 7 for me. TADA.

This is one time when the phrase as good as new doesn't apply. It was better than new. Then the amazing software ACTUALLY managed to do what we humans could not. Download and install a proper video driver that worked. I dunno why we couldn't find one despite our efforts, but maybe it speaks their language. I feel compelled to say this is the first time I am impressed, pleased and very satisfied with Microsoft technology. Now don't let that go to your head now, computer.
