Blush Oh no no no no no no......

I may not have to worry about my laptop dying because I just wounded it.

I upgraded to 'Windows Whatever ' a couple of years ago and Outlook has not worked since then. I need it. I thought maybe the thing that said 'make it something work with earlier versions of a program' would fix it. OH NO NO NO NO. I got to make windows OFFICE work in earlier version or something and clicked it before I thought. Whole thing shut down and was hard to get back going. Its slow but I don't know if it will speed up after it gets going? SYSTEM RESTORE??? I don't like to do that very much but don't 'think I want to run old version of Office? Or do I even know what I am talking about and everything is ok? haha

thanks,
judi

Well, whatever I did I fixed it. Ran system Restore to the last restore point which was last update a few days ago. Then had trauma because it shut Norton off or something did and Norton said to click to fix and it just started downloading updates with no protection????? Nothing found in scan afterwards so I guess its all ok and computer works fine again

. OH THE HORROR OF IT ALL
