Gotta love Microsoft...

While I was fighting to get two old laptops in working order, I received this message:

WINWORD.EXE is not a valid Windows program. Please install a valid Windows program.

Okaaayyyy...

I tried to reinstall it and it said:

Unable to complete installation. Please uninstall old program first.

Fine.

I try uninstalling it and it says:

Unable to uninstall program. Currently in use by Windows.

Like, no. 'Cuz it just told me it wasn't a valid windows file and refused to open!

Then it locked up my computer because:

Program preformed an illegal operation..

Ya think?

Good grief.

It would have been more amusing if that particular series of events hadn't happened many times.

I did finally convince Windows that WINWORD.EXE was a valid windows program, I'm just not sure how I did that.

Heh. Typical.

Magnum!

I have Magnum!

All is good.

BTW, finabair, Magnum is one of those shows I watched in my formative teenage years. And the really fun part is that the disk comes with the two part Simon and Simon crossover.

It's all good.

I love this show.

And Stargate SG1 and Millennium are on their way.

*does fangirl bounce*

Yay, me.
