Dude, that's about when I started having my problems with my setup. Geometry being stretched, circles appearing on screen randomly, and then going away and an onslought of other nasties. Not, to disctract from your topic, but I think this is related so you can read about my problems here.

well I can hardly think that's the case, but if it were that would be very unfortunate because that would mean there is no solution to my problem.

As a matter of fact, yes.  Although it could be because my PC is prime for computer heaven (it's a 3 year old machine), I've had some sound issues, and my computer will randomly disconnect from my wireless network with alarming frequency.  Also, it seems to have been afflicted with some performance issues.  I thought it was unusual that all these "ailments" occured so abruptly.  Maybe it's just a coincidence, or is there something else at work here (let the conspiracy theories begin...).

When 4 peoples computers die on the same day there is a windows update, and they all say they downloaded it. Thats when this becomes a problem. I mean die, like they had to replace everything.

But please, don't start thinking 'bout conspiracy theories. Windows is just unstable and stops working right after a while. It's a harsh reality, but its a reality we live in.

I never knew updates could cause so much trouble. Are you saying that the computers stopped turning on and everything no longer worked? Lol. I guess it's possible but to say that MS did it on purpose is just :lol:. If you want, you can take this to court and we'll see how far you get.
