Devil Works

I’m almost ready to wipe my entire hard drive of Vista and say good bye to it forever.

I was trying to connect to my spare laptop today to transfer some files, when I clicked my network icon Vista reported that network discovery wasn’t turned on. So I click the links to turn it on (even though I never turned it off) and I get an error message “%1 is not a valid application”

I’ve done my usual Google searches and can’t find a solution, though it appears that it’s quite a common problem…. dating back from XP days.

I originally wanted to install Ubuntu on this machine, but didn’t have a big enough partitionto set it up as a dual boot install. I’m thinking that I might throw caution to the wind and backup my files and do a clean install of Ubuntu.
