It appears that I haven&#8217;t updated it in quite a while. The end of session got in the way, then the MSST program started and then we moved to a new place.

Windows 7 refused to boot, halting at a blue screen. When I tried to boot into safe mode, I could see that the problem was with a file called CLASSPNP.SYS. I found <a href=\"http:\/\/social.technet.microsoft.com\/Forums\/en-IE\/w7itprogeneral\/thread\/b950c21f-46f4-4011-99f6-00e9c2780170\" target=\"_blank\">this<\/a> thread with a similar problem, but unfortunately replacing the file didn&#8217;t help. All the other searches I did turned up people with the same problem, and no solution. Eventually, I had to reinstall Windows to get it working.<\/p>\n<p>Fortunately, though, I had backups of all of my data, and so I didn&#8217;t lose anything, most importantly the paper I was working on for class. It did take several hours to reinstall all of my programs and get everything looking right again, but I didn&#8217;t have to spend many more hours recreating documents. Remember: always back up your files, and back them up to more than one place!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hey, is this blog still on?
