The Short Road to Insanity!Blink! Blink!

Last night I found the Dell Resource Disk that came with my computer. From this I was able to run system diagnostics on the computer… everything came up normal. Argh! This is definitely becoming interesting. Curse, grumble, curse! There seems to be no explanation why my computer will not boot all the way into Windows XP. Oh, and did I mention that F8 does not work? I can't even boot into Safe Mode (which would mean that I would not be having this problem). F2 and F12 work like a charm! But F8? Nooo! You'd think I was asking for a million dollars or something.

I think I’ll pull out my gargoyle statue and perform an exorcism on the computer tonight; maybe there’s a demon living in there (though I don’t think it will work if it’s just a gremlin infestation).
