Hey, I'd rather deal with fussy drivers than this customer below!
Customer: When are you open? Me: We are open everyday, 24 hours a day. Customer: Are you open on weekends? Me: Yes, we are open every single day including weekends. Customer: Oh! So your open on weekends, right? Me: Yes, *sigh*, WE.... are "OPEN".... EV....ER...Y...DAY!, EVEN on the weekend!!! (trying not to lose it here) Customer: Oh ok, I thought you guys weren't open on weekends.
And that was the end of that call, but if she would have asked me anything else I would have lost it!
Besides some frustrating customers my day is good.

well, it it aint just the drivers, it started after SP1 ****ed up all of windows "c:\windows\system32\config\system is missing or damaged, please insert the Windows XP CD-ROM and press r to repare at the first screen (or something like that)" well, did that, seems the windows repair needs to be able to start windows to repair it? what the fuk? Why would i want to repair windows if it were able to start up? so i replaced the damaged file with a back-up under dos, which is in the same directory called system.old? why windows doesnt just use that when it discovers the correct one is damaged I wouldnt know. So, starting up windows, guess what? "Setup is starting, preparing to repaire windows, please insert the Windows XP SP1 cd." never heard of the SP1 cd and certainly dont have it.
So, after half an hour or so I finally convince windows to use the original XP cd, takes 45 minutes to fix that damn program, Windows starts up. Next problem: Log in screen "please click your user to start windows, after you have started for the first time you can create extra users bladibladibla" but there's no user to click on, restarting in save mode, all is going well and guess what, there's my user, so i think, must have been some sort of error, restart windows in normal mode and again, no user to log in with, restart windows again in safe mode, lot of work trying to get internet to work, install TweakXP and set it up to automatically log in (i've waisted 4ยฝ hours of my life by now), finally it works. But none of the drivers are installed, so i install the nVidiot drivers, restart my computer, it hangs at the first windows screen with the progress bar, restart, hangs again, and again, finally restart with safe mode, and repeat the process, etc, etc, etc, now i've already waisted 6 hours of my life and gonna spend a few more, it's time for my favourite command: "format c:"

Originally posted by Byock You know, I had that same problem. No user to click on to log in. Damn you Bill! Hmm, come to think of it, it was caused by my GF2 GTS drivers!
so, conclusion? Microsoftie and nVidiot both suck
