Sermon Slides: Respect (plus 1 extra)

Don did a series on Character Traits. One week he spoke about Respect. So, here are some scripture slides I created to go with that theme.

Crashes lead to use of Chrome

I have uninstalled FireFox from my computer for a while. My laptop has been crashing with erratic and random errors. According to the response from Microsoft when I submit the error report, it is a device driver problem. So, I contacted DELL who had me run all thier diagnostics from the utility portion of the hard drive. That diagnostic came back clean, so they say it is a software problem and recommend reinstalling the OS and all apps.

I do not want to reinstall the OS and all my apps becuase of a) the time it takes and b) the cusomizations I have done and c) its a brand new computer with a fresh install of everything.

Things I've done:

1) Ran memtest86 the complete test several times. All RAM comes back clean.

2) Ran Microsoft's Memory testing application, the complete test. Comes back succesful.

3) I've scanned for viruses, malware, and spyware using 3 different applications. None found. (no suprise since I am very keen on ensuring that I don't get that stuff).

4) Run two registry cleaners to ensure that there are no registry problems.

5) I have scan disked and defragged several times

I've noticed that it crashes the most when FireFox, Photoshop and Media Shout are all open. But there is no correlation there because it has crashed when none of those are open too. Anyway, it didn't start crashing until after I loaded FireFox. Earlier, I uninstalled and reinstalled FireFox. Now, I have completely uninstalled FireFox, deleted all its directories, and cleared the registry of all things FireFox and have switched to Chrome. We'll see if that helps.

If you're interested. Here is a log of all the crashes. Maybe you can see something that I am missing.

Also, fwiw...I use a program called Super(c) from eRightSoft to convert media. It works like a charm on my old computer. Everytime I use it on the one that is crashing, I get an error message that reads:

Runtime Error!

Program c:\progra~1\eright~1\SUPER\spk\1strRun.exe

This application has requested the Runtime to terminate it in an unusual way. Please contact the application's support team for more information.

If i try to convert a file, this dialog box begins popping up every two or three seconds. It will pop-up a new dialog box faster than I can shut them down.

I have already uninstalled Super and re-downloaded it and reinstalled it to no avail. I unistalled it again. I did contact thier support, but never recieved a reply (which doesn't surprise me since its a free program).

My gut says the two issues are related.

Toto's "Africa" like you've never heard before...

This is an incredible piece of work. The Perpetuum Jazzile choir does an acapella version, complete with sound effects that will knock you socks off...

I'd hate to be the sound guy, though...that's a lot of microphones to keep up with. I do like the mic stands...

Destined to repeat it...

"The budget should be balanced, the Treasury should be refilled, public debt should be reduced, the arrogance of officialdom should be tempered and controlled, and the assistance to foreign lands should be curtailed lest Rome become bankrupt. People must again learn to work, instead of living on public assistance." - Cicero, 55 BC
