AUGH.

So, drakkenfyre spent ALL WEEKEND fixing my computer for me, and I am so very, very grateful. It was the hard drive. It failed. It went away. I had to replace it.

And now everything works again, except the sound card. I install the drivers off the CD, it tells me it's missing CTAC32K. I install the drivers I downloaded from the website, it tells me the soundcard doesn't exist. And this is after drakkenfyre spent all afternoon trying to make it work. Picking up the CD with the drivers on it was supposed to be the answer. (Even though it was in French.)

Hate, hate, HATE this.

Ed: I don't know what I did, other than popping off the case and double-checking which sound card it was. But when I rebooted, it found the sound card. Now to reinstall stuff...)

Better, but not quite there yet...

Can't find CD for Norton Antivirus 2002 (the latest version we have), just 2000. Grr. Thinking I might have to suck it up and get the latest version.

Also, need a decent desktop/wallpaper/background/whatever. Anyone got a favourite site for finding such? There was one I grabbed my most recent HP desktop from, that had cool Buffy ones too.. alas, lost now.
