RAGE AGAINST THE MACHINE...erm...PC!

I AM GOING TO BLOW MY FRICKING MIND!

This is why:

Man came to work, cloned old pc to put info in new pc...things went wrong...very wrong, so I has wrote email!

******************************************************************************

Hello *****!

I know you are on a job at the moment so I thought it'd be best to email a description of the things that have happened. I was just typing an email up when the computer decided to switch itself off, it wasn't like a proper 'shut down' though as it came on again pretty quickly. It auto-restarted and a blue screen appeared with lots of information on it.
Before it dissapeared and the PC turned itself off again I saw it say 'please contact your system provider' and the words 'XP updates'

When the screen came on it then said One of the files containing the system's registry data had to be recovered by use of a log or alternate copy. The result was successful This message has now popped up twice.*

I am going to be leaving the PC for now as I don't really want to be messing with it in case something goes wrong.
These are the things I have done since you left today:

I have wrote 1 email (2-including this one)

I have installed Firefox as I wanted to see if internet explorer was playing up because of the problems with BT I've been having. It isn't BT apparently as I have asked someone else to have a look on their PC and they have been anble to open my folders and get access to all the messages in the inbox too.

Firefox also won't open the emails, so I'm a little worried as to what the problem actually is and why I can't open my emails via the BT link. (I shall keep trying again tomorrow)

I have opened a few old artworks I haven't installed anything new, other than Firefox.

So, if you can just email me back that'd be great as I have no idea why all of that information came up on the blue screen and why it's said that message above twice to me.

Also I had a number of fonts I had installed on the old PC and they don't seem to be on here-I take it you just copied files over?

Also I still cannot scan. The folder that the scanner and the pc share is called: //MFP_00F49888/file_share/ I've found that info off the printer/scanner-that's where all the information is stored, is there any way to get the info back on here? Or will I need the old PC back to get all the artwork I scanned over on it previously? Can I make a new network for the PC and scanner that I can use today to start scanning afresh as I need to send artwork for approval to people and am a little stuck

Thanks to you very muchly!

*It has also done it this morning after turning the pc on first thing, so something is obviously wrong with it.

A friend of mine also said:

(Insert from Ace!)

Hi, Kat. My guess is that if someone tried to "clone the information"by just copying all the files, including windows, then it won't work.windows has to be installed fresh, because it's a different computer.or maybe they overwrote some system files on the new pc when they didthe copy (which might have screwed up the registry for example). Is btconnect a web interface thing? maybe the pc isn't set right foraccessing network or internet sites.

SO I MAY JUST FUCKING KILL THE DAMNED THING! You want me to go mad, don't you? That's what you want isn't it? Huh, huh, HUH?!
