Great to hear GoodMorphing!

Regarding your question....to change the name click on the Control Panel in the start menu, then click on User Accounts, then click on the account you want to change, then click on Change My Name.....then you can change the name.

Oh wow..... thanks! Motion, I have all your Liniation skins, Rustic, and two others from you on my other computer. I am going to e-mail the folders to myself and drag them in! Nikos, thank you! You are always so helpful! Now I can get more of your beautiful wall papers... I got lots of room now. Carlitus (, I will have to wipe away all that white out smeared all over the monitor first!).... I am so glad you came back! Now you can expect me to go for your stuff too!

HEH... this computer, it is a lot faster! I thought I had stuff installed right before but all kinds of things are showing up that go with programs I already had! I kept the same old monitor, but windows changed the resolution to 1024/768. I think I kind of like it. And all the keys on my keyboard actually work!

This computer nearly pays for itself with the perks that came with it!



and you know what else? When I stuck up for my sister and told them to LISTEN to her? They timed her disability all the way back to then! Two years! She got more than 20k! I am so glad for her! I feel so good about that, I just have to tell someone!

Happy for you GoodMorphin. I know you will enjoy using the new PC. I know that when I went from my old Pentium 266M to my present P4 2.2G it was an incredible shock.

BTW, if the email trick doesn't work out than let me know, I'll send you any of my older ones that you want. (I still have them saved on my D drive.)

Once again, congrats on the new system ......enjoy!

I'am glad I could help. When I first started out I did the same thing. Upgraded the old computer until I figured out how much money I'd spent. I could have gotten a new computer.

Good luck with the new PC.(enjoy it)

one advice: don't purchase a used Mac computer

You wanna borrow my big hammer? It worked when I installed my new hard drive!

BoXXi goes back to hammering in the screws on the case.....

Morphing,

What kind of computer did you get? It's always fun playing with new toys!

Sorry to hear that...I also have a Gateway, and have had some problems with instability...but I think that could be Win ME...

Good Luck..hope you find a solution quickly...

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.... I could download OD and install it and update it with the correct information, but it tells me I have an access violation when I try to use it. what could I be doing wrong?

forgot to put my middle innitial! Finally, I got everything back.

Sounds like everything is OK now GoodMorphing.

You should look around for a place in your area that deals in refurbished equipment. That's how I got my NEC FE700 monitor. A retailer here where I live called Computer Depot gets them in huge quantities. They come in off 2 year leases from large companies. Computer Depot refurbishes them and sells them real cheap. I got mine for $90.00 (Canadian), which would probably be around $50.00 (US).

It's worth looking into.

In the meantime, enjoy your new system now that it is up and working properly. You'll just have to sit a little close to the monitor for now.
