I just meant to thank U for replying at all to a post that really has nothing to do with this forum, sleepey.
the emergency is all over now: I managed to finish the urgent job on limited functionality and a prayer and then did a clean re-install.
Come to think of it, I should overhaul the car too if I don’t want the same to happen with it. Hope there’s no Microsoft suspensions installed!
