Computer Crash :(

I've been getting blue screens for months now...my computer is done :( I have no idea of the correct terminology, but I'm having it wiped clean of everything, then they'll reinstall the basic software. I HOPE THIS WORKS. I'm told it will run like new? I've backed up most of our photos and documents (I think). For some reason, when I try to upload my photos and videos now, Windows Movie Maker won't recognize the sound anymore (I do all my videos on my Canon powershot)? I don't know of any other free software to edit videos (not just photo montages). And it seems like the blue screens especially happen when I open Picasa, which is what I use to organize and edit my photos. Any suggestions on other programs to use for organizing photos?

Disneyland was GREAT! The kids had so much fun. The hotel was perfect, they slept through the night. Now I want to show you all our fun pics and videos...hope I get to soon!

What a bummer. I hope that works so you don't have to get a new one!

I use snapfish for photo storage but I don't love it that much. I purchased movie making software from Muvee.com. I really like it and it wasn't expensive.

Ben has wiped my laptop a few times now, basically erasing everything on the hard drive and starting over. It isnt permanent but it does work! My computer was dying b/c I needed a new hard drive and it would crash when I would try to do videos too (like I used to watch Biggest Loser online)and that killed my hard drive. Now I have a more powerful one and its great! Hope it works for you!
