XPfails – luggable – WORD blanks a document that I created yesterday ARGH!

Monday, January 22, 2007

This is a first. WORD basically “lost” a document I created yesterday. Basically, now it has to be treated as untrustworthy. Perhaps it’s time to move to Open Office?

It forgot where the internet was? Symptom nothing was resolving by name. Ping worked fine. DNS worked on other boxes. All that was left was a reboot. Argh!

I guess the XP gnome — annoying creature that it is — decided that if I was really going to keep rebooting until I got wireless connectivity back to my home network, then it’d eventually relent and give it back. Argh!

XPfails – luggable – Outlook Lookout fails – Reminder left hanging

Wednesday, January 10, 2007

Outlook gives me a reminder. Good. I click dismiss. Outlook transforms into LookOut and leaves a zero reminder hanging out. Eventually the performance degrades to unacceptable. Reboot. Argh!


XPfails – luggable – OUTLOOK

Tuesday, January 2, 2007

Outlook, aka LookOut, takes an error in a reminder. It hangs up. Eventually performance goes to zero. And MSWORD locks up. Arghhh! Reboot required. Lost time ~30 minutes to close up and restart. And, about 2 hours running at reduced throughput. Arghh!
