a few computer questions
thanks for the info - I have downloaded and installed the program for xp (twice so
far), but I can't find any dialog box. Maybe I have installed the wrong thing ? I
downloaded this file: x86 platform:windows xp - KB942288-v3-x86.exe
would that be the one I should be using ? Its funny but I saved the exe file in my
programs, and I can't find that one ? I saved another on my desktop and that's still
there though. When I run it, pretty much nothing happens. For sure I'm not getting
any dialog box.
