Hello to all the Geek Police heros -
todays problem began when we sent something to a printer attached to a computer on our network and not only did nothing print, but in the PRINTERS window, all printers were gone. We noticed that there had been an auto update of windows and were told that a re-start was necessary. So, we did. Unfortunately, I see the first WIndows XP screen and then it goes to cursor for a while and eventually pops up the "We apologize for the incovenience, but something's wrong" window.
I"ve tried all the different options - start in safe mode, start with a prompt, return to the last successful config - etc, but nothing changes. it's always the same. I even tried unplugging the ethernet cable.
any and all help is appreciated.
thanks
buff
