Yeah. My dad's system, an approximately 4 year old Vista PC, has been getting cranky lately.
Seems it doesn't like sending everything a printer needs to print more than one page of documents at a time anymore, AND we've got a memory leak SOMEWHERE that is brutally taking up 75% of system resources.
Well, my dad has no patience for workarounds (like printing one page at a time or moving the files via thumb drive to MY computer, which prints just fine to the same printer), and he's getting cranky that I can't just wave my hand and fix it.
He can still function somewhat on the web, but he doesn't LIKE reading his pdf reading assignments for his college classes on the monitor, he wants hardcopy.
So my actual web access for what I want to do is going to be severely limited for a while until we get the situation resolved.
--Frustrated and looking way too long at Vista Control panel, reboot screens, and so on,
