I am going to upgrade my computer with a MOBO CPU MEM and Video. I have been out of the loop with techology because of work. Here is my list. I would appreciate comments. I am on a tight budget and need to use my case and drives for now. I will buy SATA drives later. I can go few dollars one way or the other on each. I am mainly concerned about compatibility and I am also going to down load Vista Beta and I am excited to order.

I have a picture of my dog that died a couple of weeks ago that is blurry. I have tried to use Photoshop 6.0 to sharpen it and have been unsuccessful. Is there any body out there that can help me out? I have tried several other photo editing software and have also been unsucceful. I am not to keen on enhancing digital photos. I have other pictures of her but this one taken quickly one day turns out to be a favorite that I want to print and frame. I do not have a dot com but if some one would like to look at the picture I can email it to them. My email is trayne20@charter.net.

My son wanted to suprise me one day when I was at work by loading Morrowind on my computer. He thinks that he choose to load it on the C drive instead of the Program Files. When it loaded it send files all through my computer like Java, Windows XP folder just to name a couple. Well, of course the game will not work. I tried to Roll-Back to an earlier date and that failed. So I went through the files on my C drive and removed all traces that I could find including the Bethesda folder that the game was supposed to be placed in. I even ventured into the reg files. Now when I put the disk in to attempt to load the game InstallShield starts up and asked if I want to load Morrowind I choose yes then another window opens with the option to either Modify, Repair, or Remove the program. No matter which choice I make I get a message saying that the chosen task has been completed. Nothing actually happens though. I also have an entry in the Add and Remove Programs in the Control Panel that I cannot remove or do anything with. I hope I have given enough information. I am usually able to fix computer quandaries eventually, this time I am stuck. I have to much on the hard drive to dump and reload not to mention the lost weekend it would take.
P.S. I still love you son, but screw with your own computer, leave mine alone.
