I MAY HAVE FOUND THE PROBLEM. There is a program called Data Execution
Prevention (DEP). As stated (about 200 posts ago), my microsoft programs were
causing shutdown errors. Before I get the familiar 'Program has encountered a
problem and must close', I get a pop-up menu about DEP. Since I scanned with
about 6 different programs, I feel that my pc is clean, so I disabled DEP for
IE. And now everything works. My only question now is whether I can keep DEP
disabled for IE? Any ideas? Thanks

Leythos,
I am even LESS technical when it comes to this type of thing. I hope the
vendor's site is in the owners manual. Or how do I uninstall the current
driver? And when it asks me for the new driver what do I do? THe CD says
documentation so I assume that there are no drivers on the CD? Also, two
types of monitor connectors came with the Dell - a blue and a white. Dell
told me that one is for the older data type (which I am not using). Should I
try to switch lines?

If you have to ask these questions and don't have a way to determine the
answer in a format that you can use - take the computer to a computer
shop and have them fix it - you will save time and get it back working.

I still don't know what your problem is and have not found far enough
back to see what you said it was:

What specifically is your EXACT problem?
