Me and Win ME

Late Sunday evening, Windows Millennium went AWOL on me. I was having some problems since I installed Direct X 8, so I tried to use System Restore to revert to my pre-DX8 setup. System Restore did not work. It froze.

To make a long story short, the guts of Win ME had stopped working for reasons unknown to me (no, it was not a virus). I've spent the better part of the last 48 hours re-installing Win ME on top of itself several times in order to iron out all of the kinks. Fortunately, I refused to give up and format my C drive, so now that things are running again I can resume work on the site exactly where I left off.

The bad news is that after this experience, I want to spend some time away from my computer. I'll resume work on my Shenmue review tomorrow, and I think I can still have it posted by the end of the week. However, I'm scrapping plans to get an additional review up this week.
