Had you been a normal intelligent person you would have been able to see
what happened with bumbling Steve and his alleged computer problems. This
thread would have made more sense to you then. Time and time again you
have shown a significantly below average ability to comprehend simple
concepts.

Oh, I *did* see what happened. That's why you're so pissed off. That
and your ignorance about UAC continues to plague you... ooh! Now we
can add in your ignorance about formatting disks in Windows and
opening your own computer's case! Sucks to be you, doesn't it,
dickwad?


Your'e the most technically incompetent person on this newsgroup. That is what must suck!
