Easy to see when my wife is out of town... It's over 4:30am here, been sitting by the computer all evening and night.

The idea was to do some overdue boring paperwork and statistics but honestly, it's been about 45% streaming TV on display 1, 45% Seven Forums on display two and occasional work related stuff every now and then in between. Took me some two hours to write a page and a half rapport, I just noticed.

John and Shawn and all you n00bs, geeks and gurus: I blame you! This is too addictive.

Now good night, have to sleep couple of hours. I'll be back early tomorrow, wife will be back tomorrow evening and then it's back to normal reduced PC-time.

Thanks Orpheous. I got some more info out of them yesterday. Apparently when I first installed 7 the latest driver from catalyst (9.11) was causing the crashes. Going to an earlier driver didn't resolve the issues either. Those who answered my original thread said that the latest driver should have been ok but apparently not. While it was at the shop, catlyst released 9.12 which seemed to resolve all BSoD problems. As this driver was not available at the time I pruchased the computer, the tech guys chose not to charge me for the trouble shooting and freight which was good of them :) can't wait tp get my machine back.

Today I cleaned the house. 20 minutes it was back to it's original (disaster) state thanks to my 1.5 year old.

I watched a couple of entertaining movies tonight, "Gran Torino" and "Watchmen", and decided to poke through some tutorials and how-to links before I crashed.

I just found out how to conquer the dastardly "caps lock" key, by turning it into another shift key. This is a great day, because I was always hitting it and noticing half a sentence later that my upper and lower cases were bass-ackwards....no more!:thumbsup:

It's 1:20pm here. Got up only two hours ago, after finishing Seven Forums 5am and sleeping a few hours. Wife's away, didn't want to make any breakfast home so went to a pub for a nice brunch, now back here. Have to use this rare occasion, unlimited and uncontrolled online time, when possible; the wife is back about 9pm and then it's back to normal. When the cat is away... :o

So Florida has two time zones, judging by what Tews and Valton tell? Never knew that one state can have more time zones!
