to computer people

My computer has just given me a blue screen. Not a BSOD, I don't think -- just a...blue screen covered with words telling me that the physical memory was being dumped to the hard drive, and something about the BIOS, and that if I see the blue screen again in the near future, I should consider removing whatever program is afflicting Archie. When the computer restarted and I had signed back in, Microsoft Help showed up and I told it to find a solution to the problem. It hasn't come back (and I'm not surprised.) I'm running a malware scan as I type this, and when its done I'll run a deep virus scan with my AVG Free 9.0 program. In the meantime, the last time this happened to me without any explanation was in January. I haven't experienced any problems until now.

Is there a Microsoft update that's caused this? Or did Archie just overheat?

ETA: Malware Bytes and AVG found nothing wrong with my computer. Am now going to use Google-fu to see if there are any problems with the latest Microsoft updates.

Sorry for taking so long to reply. I sort of took an internet break for spring break.

I was glad to help out with it. It's just sort of one of those things that you don't really think about until you get around to trying to get it all set up and fixed. Going with the arcade sounds like a good idea. Obviously, you can go ahead and get just the arcade package and a game and have a great time. It's just that if you're going to play a certain way, you'll end up wanting most of that stuff and I'm nuts about saving money when I can, so I love packages like that.

For me, procrastination is something that you obviously shouldn't be doing, but so are a lot of things. It's an ingrained behavior and I really do work on getting it fixed. At the same time, I think that if you do it, you have to recognize you're going to do it and plan accordingly. Your goal should be to get the project done sometime before the exact due date, but you'd better operate on the worst case scenario.

In my case, that means that I have a final on Monday evening. If I study a decent amount tonight, Saturday, and Sunday, then great. I have Monday to relax and play with a bit. However, I'm definitely not making plans for Monday with the assumption that I'll have my studying done Monday.

The emblems are the best I can do with PainShopPro. I'd welcome any help. They're the military ranks.

GOOD! I NEED ALL THE LOVE I CAN GET!

So, enjoying your break? As you can see, I'm a bit euphoric. The result of having two major assignments due on one day and then having something of a lull before having to start up hardcore again for finals.

Thanks. I just really enjoy it and I think that makes all the difference. I've got several boxes that I'd really like to get. This one has Stitch, one of my favorite Disney characters. [LINK=http://www.jbox.com/IMAGE/B48Vy]This one is gorgeous, but it's $85 and holds slightly more than I'd like (about 720 ml). This one is about $50, but it looks like it might be worth it.

Who, me, drooling? There are also several other cute designs. I need bento boxes!
