If your system fails to run due to an error related to lost HAL.DLL, invalid Boot.ini or any other important system boot files you can repair this by using the XP installation CD. Just boot from your XP Setup CD and enter the Recovery Console. Then run "attrib -H -R -S" on the C:\Boot.ini file and remove it. Launch "Bootcfg /Rebuild" and then Fixboot Regards, Carl Good Day

And I've always thought your site was cool, but mature.. (sort of college-ish or something?) Too might white makes reading easier, but it makes it look HTML (plain) and sometimes it gets too bright for my eyes. In general, I love dark layout, though you could actually make your blog a white color with black text somehow. That would be good if you strike a balance. Right now, your site for me looks a bit empty and clinical....I think you need more color/art/ect. or something to jazz it up. The header has always done well in the "art" department, and the pics/screenshots help, but now, when I scroll down, because of the all-white layout, it gets really really boring.....But that being said, I'm not asking for myspace-layout cluttered type of thing. :P Keep it clean, simple, but interesting....Use white, but add more light or dark colors to liven things up.

The "problem" was on my part. I'm using a firefox extension that puts my tabs in a sidebar, which makes my viewing window a lot narrower. That kinda screwed up your new 3 column layout, which I wasn't even aware of until now! I figured something was up when you said you fixed the gap but it was still there for me. Hah. Now that I can see your layout properly, very nice! No complaints! Ah, nevermind! The “problem” was on my part.

Same here. Something is needed to frame/to define your items or they look like they are floating. Perhaps a background color for the comments will help to fill what looks like a lot of empty space.

I wasn't used to the change yesterday but I am now. It's nice and I like it. I don't agree that it's too white; it looks all right to me. There's a pleasing mix of colors with your headers and other pics. Still my favorite k-blog.^^ Must have been a lot of work for you. I wasn’t used to the change yesterday but I am now.

I wanted lots of space, but it was probably a little too much of a gap. And I may just need your expertise should I decide to tackle some ambitious (well, for me) CSS. :) Thanks Sue, done.

The comments that it's hard on the eyes puzzles me too. On the other hand, I see a BIG gap in between the header image and the rest of the content. Did you change some of the CSS recently? No one else seems to have commented on it. If you do need any CSS help, send me an email! Although I'm no longer "active" in the webdesign world, I might be able to help you. I say keep the white!
