  • How do you put the case-back back on a Casio mtp-1215?

    I'm trying to replace the battery on my Casio MTP-1215 watch. All went well until I tried to put the case-back back on the watch. It seems like it should just snap into place, but I can't get it to go on. Can anybody help?

  • Did the latest Windows update mess up your machine?

    Last night when I turned off my XP machine for the night, it displayed the message that it was going to install updates and then turn off. When I turned it on this morning, I had the machine's original default desktop background and icons, all my quickstart programs were gone, Firefox took me to the web page you get when you first install it, and all my bookmarks, add-ons and custom settings were gone.

    I have an Athlon XP3200 machine and before the update it was running XP SP3. I did a system restore back to last week, and everything looks fine. I was just wondering if the update affected anyone else this way?
