Damommin:
So my poor laptop died, I mourned its loss and eventually decided that a new laptop was needed. I toddled off to Argos and bought a lovely, shiny, purple Toshiba, brought it home, plugged it in, turned it on on and... Well, bluntly, I cannot use it! I've tried, honestly I have. In fact I've tried since August (on and off, perhaps half heartedly) but I have tried over the past 2 evenings, to print a document and I just can't. The swooshy in blue panel disappears before I can manage to move the cursor anywhere near the tiny, elusive 'print ' button. To say. I am frustrated is an oversight. Hurrrumpf. Moan done.

MIN:
I have a Toshiba (Argos) and windows 8. my last one operated on Vista. I hated this new software, took me ages and quite abit of huffing. but cracked it in the end. still prefer vista but now used to W8.

Damommin:
Min, thanks for the reply. I think I've done a fair bit of huffing now so any minute now I'll have sussed it!

julie1:
I don't know what my son did !!!!!   but I can use either  :luv:
It has sussed-out that I prefer the old Desk top & now it opens on that;   needless to say I use this most but do dip in-to windows 8 occasional.
Maybe if you haven't a "geek" in the family you could have it done at a computer shop.

Damommin:
Julie- I do indeed have a Geek! I shall ask them to fiddle! Many thanks.
