I now have another thing broken: iTunes. First it installed without the iDevice drivers & services, then it wouldn't reinstall and now it thinks all my media is in the cloud when I know it's on a local network drive.
Fixed the tv tuner by replacing the dodgy korean/chinese tuner for a brand I should have bought in the first place years ago.
Found an MS Office disk it's 2003, somehow I was using Office 2007 instead, can't remember HTF I did it. Which means I've got install disks for that somewhere.
I'm slowly thinking that I should yank all my HDs bar the boot 'raptor, get a new HD and take my PC into one of the local shops and get them to a SSD-like OS install, but the issues I'm running into are possibly a known thing with a 64-bit Win7. Something to do with a user restriction of some type that I got around when I first installed win 7 32bit....ack. Still, I'm puzzling on how to add an IDE to this 'upgrade' as none of the local 'puter shops stock anything related to IDE anymore.
