ok so i admit that i had to look that up on the interweb but i KNEW it sounded familar. i loved that book. never could get through it htough. of course i always choose the worst times in my life to try and then go nuts and throw the book into the farthest corner, which, though usually only 3 to 6 feet away, will then get covered with crap and lost for months. please tell me your thoughts on it. are you just reading it now for the first time?
Hmmm...sounds like some program really confused your compy...did you install anything new lately?
Have you tried starting up from the last working settings? If not that might work. If you need someone to try and help out let me know, maybe I could stop by and see if there's anything I can do.
