What a last 24 hours.After a software install i rebooted and win8 got stuck in a repair loop.Tried pretty much everything.Could not access my acronis backups on the external.Nothing i tried worked,so went out this morning and bought the full edition of windows 8 pro and did a clean install.As my prev win8 install was a download and an upgrade edition,i could not access any of that info.It winds up working out better as a clean install is always better and the pc is dejunked software wise.Slowly getting all the stuff back in and of course webroot was my first install after the windows updates.I want to get some decent imaging software installed again,but it's not in the budget right now as i just shelled out $200 for win8.My acronis True image was the 2013 edition which was purchased as an upgrade to the 2012.Unfortunately the prerequisite for installing an upgrade edition is a pre-existing install.I cannot wait for this day to be over.Thankfully this all happened on my vacation.Hope all is well here.Will be popping in and out all day between installs.
Regards,
Dan

All the important stuff is back in.I am sure going to miss my games until i can get them redownloaded.Right now all is runnning well thankfully.I have not even started to update my wife's pc yet with tuesdays updates.Not that this machine lagged at all,but it does run noticeably better without all that oem dell crap and win 7 leftovers.I have heard about a great many people having issues with tuesdays updates.Just goes to show every home environment is unique as there are people that had no issues.I'm just glad to be back up and running so tomorrow i can start paying my bills due at the end of the month.
Regards,
