Hey,
Okay, the thing is, I bought this notebook with everything installed in it
for me, so I don't really have the disks for anything... I'm not sure what or
how to do these type of things. I think I might be asking a professional to
help me with it. I am really confused about all of these terms... I should
really take a computer course about these things... Wow, there are so many
technical terms to these things. I should learn these things myself instead
of getting others to do it for me, but if anything wrong happens then I won't
be able to fix it. I'd rather get it fixed than pay for something more worse
after. Well, Thanks A LOT anyways, but it's too complicated for me to
understand...
