About a week ago, I started up my computer, and it both sent me into a temporary account and broke my desktop, saying it couldn't find it, and for some reason my programs were gone. A few days later, Dell DataSafe Local Backup wanted to update. As my files are already backed up onto a flash drive, I didn't really care. Then the updater came up, crashing SMBX, and I immediately hit cancel, then after the work I had lost on SMBX, I didn't really feel like playing it. Then today, it broke my desktop again. I swear this things gonna crash at some point, and the ironic thing is that it's brand new. I say it's Dell's fault, there's only been one Dell computer (out of four, excluding mine) that hasn't crashed yet. I hate you Dell, I really do.

Dell sucks.
HP sucks
Emachines sucks

Everything sucks.

Call Dell, or take your machine back to where you bought it.
they should take care of this free of charge, seeing how you said it's new, and you barely did anything to encounter such a problem.

Best of luck to you.

Nah, it works. It's just a (rather annoying) thing that happens. With the backup program, SMBX takes up quite a bit of CPU, and the updater simply crashes it if it comes up. I've also gotten used to it breaking my desktop. I'm fine, the computer is just annoying. :D
