computer moron, here. The computer (tower--maybe from 2003) I use every few months for pictures isn't working. It comes on, the blue hp screen comes up, then the "thinking" windows screen comes on.... and stays. Eventually the screen goes blank and the routine starts over. I just want to get the baby's pictures onto some disks and be done with it already. Any ideas what I should do? Will what I do to fix the problem erase all those photos?! I hope not...I've been trying to back them up onto disks for a while now. Thank you so much in advance for your help!
