Hi Boggin
No it is mine,I been having some trouble with it & I am guilty of doing something to cause it :wink: no one else has used it.
I will try the link you left & let you know what happens.
Thank You for your help

It's just that I would have expected a different username on the computer, which made me think it belonged to a friend/relative.

I just got done looking at that link & I cant do any of them, I have no back up yet. That the reason I have not tried the complete reinstall, where it gos back to factory settings & everything else is tossed. I Ordered a exterior Hard Drive (back-up drive) it should be here ohh today Saturday Monday I hope. Then I can put my files on it so I no lose them. Humm please tell me it that a good idea or not :shy: I can get my self in so much trouble by knowing just enough to really mess things up. Sorry got side tracked again :shy:

It's always a good idea to have an external HDD to back up to and with a system image on one would save you from having to go the full repair when things go awry.

BACKUPS. ALWAYS MAKE BACKUPS. But, most backup products are clumsy and error-prone.
I have a script, and a simple US$39 product from Germany, that allows me to make 100% backups of each computer (locally on a separate partition, with as many days' worth of backup as you'd like to have; I use 5) and a 100% copy to an ancient XP system that writes them to an external drive (which I change every 10 days or so; I keep three 1TB disks in rotation; the eldest is in the trunk of my car, so if the house burns...). Last night's backup is in three places!
If you're interested, I could post more of it here. I call it "The Waterfall" method.
