Nope - tried it again for luck, but stops at two lines.
WORSE STILL THIS MORNING. Fired up and nothing seemed to be working. Thought it was just task bar issues, but nothing much worked. Got going in save mode - couldn't use big screen. What a mess.
No other computers in UK and I'm holding lot's of money for things people have purchased. No other means of banking here. Never been in this position before because of masses of computers at home.
Trying to roll back the date. And praying. Oh, and the task bar has gone white.
