All by myself! No help from hubby! Woohoo! :yahoo:
Randomly the other day it started going so SLOOOOOOW. I tried to save my LO in PSE so I could restart the computer, but I got an error saying there wasn't enough memory. WHAT? We have 2 gigs of RAM on this laptop. When I pulled up task manager, it showed that "svchost.exe" was using up 100% of my memory. After much research, I found out that it wasn't a virus, that "svchost" is part of the Windows OS, so I couldn't just shut it down.
But there were a few helps on the Internet, and I followed them, and voila--fixed computer. All before dh got home from work. And then I could scrapbook more. Don't you just love the Internet? Answer to almost every question. And now I feel so EMPOWERED!
Thanks for letting me brag a bit!
