Re: [Avid-L2] My PC spazzed out big time?

It seems like you just have bad luck with anything that has to do with
computers...

But my Avid 6 experience was just terrible until 6.0.3 was released. Been
running 6.0.3 on 10.7.5 & W7 Pro SP1 pretty solidly for a while now. I
haven't crashed on W7 in months. Maybe try upgrading.

As far as the super glitch goes, it sounds like a virus. Even if you're
not connected to the internet, it's still possible for them to find their
way in there. If it's not that then call HP.
