That might have explained the missing windows programs.. though I'm not 100% positively sure. But just 2 weeks ago the computer mysteriously freeze when I was surfing the internet. When I attempt to reboot it, it kept giving me "unmountable boot errors" and amongst other undecipherable errors.
I can't live w/o the computer or much less the internet... and the thought of having to refurbish an entirely new machine would cost me 2 grand. Harrowing indeed. So I jot down all the errors and scour the internet for solutions, I found some but most of them didn't work or could not be applied at all.
Until finally my brother lent me his old Windows XP installation CD to boot from and attempt to repair from there. Viola!!! The computer has been restored and fixed. Although it still crashes occasionally, at least it works. So it seems like the CD that I had originally installed my may have been corrupted over time while sitting in the CD case.
To be on a safe side, I think I should start cultivating an interest for out-door activities soon.. lest I become overly reliant on the computer in this digital age.
