I keep trying to pawn off my TIVO series 2 with lifetime on them but mom is afraid she won't understand how to use it and dad is convinced they have no use for it anyway. :rolleyes:

We all think we don't need DVR until we get it. That sh*t will change your life :)

Anyone know why the pointer on my screen keeps switching from an arrow to a circle like really fast? Did Virus/malware checks. Nothing. Any ideas?

Windows 7? It sounds like some process running wild. Start task manager (ctrl-alt-del) click on "processes s" and then CPU. See if some task keeps coming and going.

Hmmm, it stopped. Ive got Windows Vista. Next time it starts I'll see what's running in Task Manager.

Thanks!

Actually, ctrl-shift-esc takes you right into Task Manager. ctrl-alt-del requires an extra step.
