An interesting factoid: Walking on ice requires core muscles that have not been used much since I woke up!

Just an FYI for all my games - my desktop has crapped out. It only works sporadically, if that. So, I can access my games but only from my iPad. I can respond but it's hard to write up long responses and I have never figured out how to do color text on Tapatalk. A new desktop is being ordered but will take at least a couple of weeks. Just wanted to give an update, especially because I will try to go back and edit in the color and any weird formatting where I can.

Thanks [MENTION=11520]Scotley[/MENTION]! It is definitely a PITA, I'm glad you understand and apology for the quality of my posts until ...something changes.
Yes this computer has been going down hill for a while now and while I am not totally computer illiterate, I've reached the end of my usefulness. There were definitely some hard core viruses brought on by my daughter - yeah, thanks. In FOUR YEARS I had ZERO viruses, in 2 months she's had multiple. One of them, Vosteran or something like that, was some 6 step thing to get them off. So, after using like 4 different antivirus programs, I think I have that handled. But it's taken me like 3 months because it kept coming back. *Knock on Wood* it's been a few weeks since I had that problem.
I keep getting an "out of memory" message that freezes up the computer and "Display driver has stopped working" which also crashes things too. I think this computer is about 4-5 years old. At the time we bought the best we could and so actually the new computer will have the same specs, believe it or not. It could just be a hardware issue but I don't have the skills to figure all that out.
I will take any suggestions you might have!

Viruses can mess up root level stuff like memory addressing and drivers. Getting rid of the virus doesn't necessarily correct the damage.
You could try a re-install of Windows and see if it helps. If you weren't getting those errors pre-virus, you shouldn't be getting them now unless damage was done to your Windows files.

"My" 16-year-old is a MAGNET for computer viruses and malware! All she has to do is look at a computer and it starts coughing and gagging!

Shayuri is right! The best way to get rid of problems like you are describing is a clean install of windows. It does wonders. Although time consuming for all the programs you have to re-install, it saves you the money of a new PC.
