Posted August 17, 200717 yr My laptop an Acer Aspire 5100 Vista Premium had been downloading an avi file, suddenly the desktop froze. The only way I could do anything was to shut off the power, upon rebooting the error :IE 7 is not working, looking for a solution, or something like that showed up. I had to attempt power off/on about 5 times before the system booted into normal mode. In my word processor about 5 document listings were missing from the usage list, possibly indicating the system used the restore function to recover. The system appears to be functioning properly for the last 2 days, but I have had it with Vista, it's going on the shelf, I'll replace the hard drive and instal XP, the Vista drive can rot on the shelf until Microsoft gets their act together and I don't see all the complaints with Vista - from Day One I still haven't got Windows Live to work with video conversations, although Skype and SightSpeed do work.
