My poor little laptop stopped responding altogether, even after reinstalling Windows completely, and is now back with the manufacturer. :( My husband's pc is in many ways nicer but it's not mine and it's not a little laptop.

This time we're completely reformatting the hard drive (translation: my son is doing all the clever stuff and I get to press "OK" every so often.) He's rescued my data, so at least I've got that.fairyhedgehoghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14141089706966852951noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8289273.post-71448864279669414952011-09-05T12:55:54.692+01:002011-09-05T12:55:54.692+01:00My profoundest sympathies.

That's the screen saver setting. Only take moving the mouse to unhibernate - which means I could be gone and the computer closed and one of the cats could turn it back on. But then it'll hibernate again in a short time (one hopes).Sarah Laurensonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09252565450452195395noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8289273.post-29876581362945855662011-08-27T16:20:17.028+01:002011-08-27T16:20:17.028+01:00Wilkins, I did have help!

The wonderful Derek from <a href="http://www.thespykiller.co.uk/" rel="nofollow">The Spykiller</a> helped me to work out what was wrong and my son started me off on the process of taking my laptop back to its factory specs. All I did was keep updating Window until it would update no more!<br /><br />jj, and I had no idea!<br /><br />Sarah, you did well! I don't leave the battery in either because the manual said not to. Sadly, the manual didn't mention the fact that hibernating is a very bad idea!fairyhedgehoghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14141089706966852951noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8289273.post-89454880706641464822011-08-27T04:25:16.506+01:002011-08-27T04:25:16.506+01:00I'm so glad I went from XP to Windows 7 and mi...I'm so glad I went from XP to Windows 7 and missed Vista completely. I hibernate all the time.
