Regular readers (hahahaha*clunk*) might remember me blathering about SYSTEMced a few weeks ago. Well, after the latest windows update, it's back. I'll be editing this post as I battle with getting the drive back to life.
For the moment, I have the drive out and in a drive caddy, and I'm booting up my other win2k machine, the laptop. It's SLOOOW. Hence, blogging it to pass the time.
--
So I got inveigled into a long conversation about politics. I might post some of those thoughts here someday.

Got the system hive, 10.4M (10,997,760bytes), mounted on the other machine now.
--
Exported, it's 9.86M (10,342,400bytes). Small enough, I hope.
--
Yay! It's booting again! Now to clean it...
--
Hey... it's offering to install MORE updates. Should I let it? SHOULD I???
--
I notice that AVG will tell you "All security features are working correctly and are up to date" even if the update failed due to a networking issue. So nice when you catch your security people lying to you.
