It wasn't a riddle. You're the one who helps run it. Is this your way of telling me your forum also will not be supporting Vista anymore?
Thanks for the help. Might I ask why there's still a forum to offer assistance with the 8-track tapes?
Well, I don't know why it didn't occur to me to uninstall and reinstall. I tried it and it stopped the crashes. I figured I'd see if it worked...
So for the past couple days, my computer has been going down every time I open up Chrome. I'm fairly sure Chrome is the culprit, because I can...
Right now, for whatever reason, the computer is running fine and has been since the startup repair was completed last night. Gonna give it today...
This just started suddenly, rather than a case of the computer gathering cobwebs (literal and otherwise) and slowly getting draggier and draggier....
Been working on that. Some of them (video card driver for example) required Vista to get itself up-to-date first so it's been a tedious process.
This link worked. I have no idea why but it did. Thanks! I will mark this solved.

OK, here's the deal. I bought an external hard drive (Western Digital MyBook 3.0) intending to back up important stuff, pictures, video, stuff...
NVidia Geforce GT 620. I don't know if it's a "better" card than the old one, but I couldn't find any list of detailed specs for the old one to...
Just finished replacing the graphics card and things look good. Optest sat I would say. I will mark this resolved.
Tried again this morning to run in normal mode, but got the second blue screen of this episode. Basically this one, actually:...
Thanks Evan. I updated and installed the driver and it seemed to fix the old problems but create a set of new ones. The minor corruption is gone...
About an hour ago (doing nothing out of the ordinary) my monitor went dark and showed its "power save" message as if the computer had entered...
Update: The folder is now good and cleaned out. I have 200+ free gigs of space that weren't there before. I probably mistyped the folder...
Thanks for the help everyone. I attempted the fix listed in the article and was able to delete the folder, but oddly it only cleared up a few...
