Default I hate computers!

My computer is all messed up! I don't know what has happened! It was working fine on Monday, then yesterday, we went to use it and blam! Problems. It won't recognize my mouse and it keeps my desktop settings at 480x640 or whatever that smallest one is. I've been lucky enough to get my burner to work somehow and am now copying everything off. It sucks having to use the keyboard for everything though! I'm going to try to do a restore disc on it, but two people have said it sounds like my hard drive is shot! All I want is to get my Jovi shows and the pics from my digital camera off it! Luckily though, we have two computers in the house, so I've got another one to use in the meantime! Any computer gurus out there have any ideas???!! Let me know and wish me luck.....

My computer didnt recognize my mouse once. It was horrible. I had to borrow a computer from my boyfriend and had to reinstall everything. That doesnt sound promising, but.. that's what I had to do.

Sounds like the situation Iīm in everytime I let my mother touch my computer.

"I have no idea, I did nothing! It just went that way by itself. Oh I hate computers"

watch Harry Enfield

"WOMEN!.. Donīt try to be men"

my computer is really slow at the moment, over half of my hard drive is filled up with mp3's (i have 4900+)....so it looks like without getting a new hard drive (which im very close to having to do so, because I dont have much space left, i think im going to have to delete sum mp3's or videos

You can burn them all off on CDs then delete the mp3's. That's what I do.

OK Guys, you're not helping me here! I"ve got a few more discs of stuff to slowly burn...then I'm restoring it. Let's hope that works.
