My advice... run down to Best Buy or CompUSA and snag the lowest-
end $300 E-Machines PC you can find, load a different OS on it
(whichever one you were running Paris on) to get through this one
project, then diagnose the other PC later, sell the E-Machines
PC as nearly-new for a hundred-dollar loss afterwards & you can
recoup some of the $. Worth it to keep a client, if you're doing
this for money.
If you're NOT doing it for money, then the client can wait 'til
you figure it out, whether that's by this wednesday or twelve
wednesdays from now.
Nice offer from Deej, but you could install everything he sends
you & STILL not have a working PC; or I could overnight you my
Paris PC - which I'd be happy to do if you're paying for
shipping - only for you to find out that the problem is your
monitor.

How about Chris Latham or Sandy Tipping? Both
Paris users--also, try Dave Latto at Quad Studios,
I'm sure he still has a system up and running...

Hey Jeremy,
I'm still here. It was the other guy (that crazy German) who moved.
Just hit the NG first time in a few days.
I'll happily let you use my system, it's in town and I'll be down near
Brentwood tomorrow.
Three cards / WinME.
Call me - 615-299-9107.
Sandy
