turpsI woke up the morning to find that overnight my computer had updated itself which meant a restart. Which meant Word shut down and all of my editing was lost. Why it did that I don't know as I'm sure you need to click to okay an update but no, Silver decided to be independent last night. Guess I'll just have to start again. An addition to that story, reading friendsfriends just now I read someone else's computer did that overnight as an automatic Windows update. I'm not at all pleased that Windows can update when they like.
I need to get Corey's presents wrapped sometime soon too. He breaks up from school tomorrow which means things must be wrapped by then. The problem is finding them from where they've been stashed away. I'm so organised man, I can hardly stand myself *g*
Now I'd better get on with the editing, again. I'll also send out many good vibes and hugs to the flist, so many people need them right now.

Lets hope the bad luck that's dogging LJ ends soon.

Date: 2004-12-16 06:46 am (UTC)Go to start-control panel-then on the new XP panel choose Performance and Maintanance
Then click on See Basic Information about Your Computer
Then choose Automatic Updates
You've likely got Automatic upgrade and install ticked. Change this to autodownload, but I'll decide when to upgrade.

It's checked as default. Which is a new thing to XP I think.

Date: 2004-12-16 09:06 am (UTC)I've heard of a few people that had an automatic update last night and it's just wrong. I mean I lost some editing which isn't that big a deal but if it had happened when I was writing I would have wanted to kill someone.

I'm up and running now, just trying to fine tune a sex scene which I always hate.
