System Restore problems

[vaio-user]

I have a a month old S4XP with XP which also has Adobe Acrobat Elements on it. When I was installing my printer software I saw an printer icon for Adobe PDF and thought it was for another printer which I didn't need. So I stupidly deleted it.

When I tried to use Acrobat Elements a couple of weeks later, I was told it could not find something to function and I suddenly remembered what I had deleted.

So I did a system restore back to the time before I deleted it and now the Adobe Elements is working fine but the system is very slow and I cannot send or receive emails in Outlook 2003 and get the following message.

[Name of account] Receiving reported error 0X8004210A: 'The operation times out waiting for a response from the receiving (POP) server. If you continue to receive this message contact your server administrator or internet service provider (ISP).'

I have another computer which does receive emails, so it's not to do with the ISP. Can anyone help?

well they vaio-link say its the processor that gets warm, mine gets abit hot more when its on a flat surface but less when its on my lap, alot of people have said this machine is very warm.

Well, it is a lot warmer than my three year old iBook, that's for sure. It might be worth investing in a laptop stand to keep the air circulating underneath when using it on a desk, although that's not ideal and costs more money! However the size, the 13.3" screen, is not standard. I was looking for a padded case so that I could slip it in my rucksack without the rucksack screaming out: "Alert, alert, laptop backpack, expensive laptop". The nearest I could get was a 14" Gimp which I think will be ok but I might stuff some material in with it to make it extra snug. Do you know of any laptop slip cases, rather than full blown bags, which are a snug fit for this size laptop?

TechAir looks really just like any other bag, but they're quite cool

They look pretty good. At least they don't scream, "I'm a Vaio, pinch me!" But I'm really just looking for a slip case to pop into my rucksack. But thanks for the link. The airbag technology sounds really good.

Get the rucksack then you can use the other pockets like the one you have right now
