Computer trouble

My laptop is finally up and running. I use a program for Alegbra. A week and a half ago, I accessed the program to do some homework. All of a sudden, multiple windows started to open up. It opened a total of 35 windows. Then my computer froze up. I had to manually shut it down. When I rebooted. I found that my Windows program was bugged. I would only get a blue screen telling me to reload Windows. Arggggg. I was so angry. Of all times, this is not the time to have trouble with my laptop. I had to wait for my friends boyfriend to come by. He uninstalled Windows and reinstalled it last night. It is one of those things that takes hours because he had to try all kinds of methods. Because of course, nothing is ever as easy as it seems. Last week I went to the library to do multiple things. I was going to blog and also I had to print a paper for another class. Well..........the library printer was out of service. I was there for three hours trying to download my information to a floppy, when that didn't work I tried a flash drive. Needless to say, neither of these methods worked. Finally I drove to Farmingdale to use my friends printer. Only to find out that her cat decided to urinate inside the printer. ha ha ha. That's my luck, or atleast that day it was. Unfortunatly, my job has restricted internet access to everyone. Apparently, some people abused this privledge and we all had to pay the price for it. So doing anything internet based at work is not an option.
Atleast i'm up and running now. I'll keep my fingers, and toes crossed that my laptop makes it through this semester. I'm looking around for a good deal now on a new laptop. I really need one and at this point it is a priority to get one.
