Blew up my system today... don't know exactly how I did it, but all I know is that I installed a system utility from Nvidia on my K8NS Pro (which has a n3 250), and I lost sound and mouse for most of the day... reinstalled windows, (had to talk to a snooty girl from alberta), reflashed the bios... just about everything I could find actually, then after just leaving it for a few hours with all the power off, It works again... GRRRRRR... hate when that happens, because I don't know what fixed it.  Otherwise, worked with family friend Mary on her dead husbands computer, and yes, it was just as morbid as it sounds... Otherwise, I'll be back later, gotta finish putting my apps back on XP... Too Ta Loo...
