    Annoying..

    Don't you hate it when people randomly delete things on your computer?

    For example:
    *Random Drivers that are not supposed to be deleted.
    *Games with saved files you worked hard on
    *Something that makes you have to reinstall windows (couldn't boot), and loosing everything on the harddrive
    *Things you spent many hours downloading off Kazaa

    And the latest which once again pisses me off..

    Everything in my unzipped folder. A Bunch of random stuff, but still, VERY annoying.


    ok, I'm done now.. anyone else's parents like this? Delete things without asking...Especially when it's not their computer. Things that most of the time, they don't know what they do. Never belong to them. Only thing they use the computer for is the Internet. How files in my C:\ drive effect them, is beyond me.


    EDIT-CRAP! wrong forum.. mod wanna move please.

        A while ago, one of my neighbours decided to free up more hard drive space by going through the file structure and deleting anything he didn't recognise and thought he didn't need. Among those files was config.sys and command.com

        Not good.

        wearing a shirt with a giant arrow pointing
        downwards, but I have this strange feeling
        that most people would take it as some kind
        of sexual suggestion rather than an attempt
        to infer one's final destination."

            its not aloways that easy... especally when they like to "add/remove" your computer games.. those go straight to computer file heaven or hell.. not to the recycle bin

              Have you tried setting yourself up with a separate User Login? This might alleviate some of the problem.

                Hmm.. now we got something else, this appears on boot.


                "Memory Managre not detected
                Creative SB16 emulation driver requires emm386 or similar
                Creative SB16 emulation driver NOT loading"


                lol, havn't noticed any effects yet, oh well.
                I'm guesstin it means Creative Labs Sound Blaster, my sound card.. Sound works fine.

                  Hahaha, that's why your parents have their own computer to break.

                  For the people who have parents that delete stuff off their computers and cause them to screw up... put up a password logon in windows and start up. That ought to keep them out.
