Unless, of course, you knew enough about the FORMAT command to be dangerous. Like the time I wanted to format a floppy diskette and blithely entered: FORMAT C: Then when the computer asked me... "This is going to format your hard disk drve... are you sure you want to do that???" of course I answered, "Yes you ignorant machine!... WAIT! NO!!!" But of course, by then I'd hit the button. :rolling:

I wish I had read a few of those warnings myself.

I was glad to finally find someone else with this crazy problem that was driving me mad.

So I followed the advice, I did a hard reset! I backed up with ActiveSync (what do I know, i was too lazy to look for the "pocket back-up"). Of course the restore would not work but that might have been an act of “you know who”…she decided I should install the programs one by one to find the culprit.

So far so good. Thanks! :approve:
