I think I broke it!

My laptop is broken. I don't know what's wrong, but first Excel stopped working, then word did wierd things and Outlook won't even open!

It's scanning the computer (from a link Kilika sent me) but I think it's beyond my expertise. I might need to call in the big guns to fix it, so I might be a bit quiet for awhile.

*sigh*

    Are you having trouble with any programs other than your Office programs? You might try reinstalling Office, if not.

      I can't install or uninstall Office. I have done more virus scans than you can imagine. I thought I had it last night, but I was mistaken.

      The problem seems to be with a Microsoft update that didn't download or install correctly. I will take it to my favorite computer place in Redding later this week. www.acredding.com is owned by a long-time friend of mine who complains that I only come to see him when my computer is broken. Eep. I haven't stopped in to see him since last time I needed computer assistance.

      And I was supposed to take him samples of Knotty Alder about a year ago in December.

      It's a good thing we have so much history and he knows me, otherwise he might think I am a bad friend. Hmmm.....maybe I am a bad friend, but he has a good enough heart to forgive me. :) and to fix my computer (for a small fee) !!

      So there's hope. I am finished trying to fix the damn thing. I think I will go play around Lake Tahoe today instead. Have a wonderful day!

        Yep. That's it. Recrystallized chai latte with nasal insulfation. It's shorting out your F1 through F12 keys, and causing your Office suite to malfunction. You should quit reading posts that cause that.

        But you can click on the link............
