She tells me that following the directions on the microsoft page, she still gets the same error code and crashes. She may end up taking the box to Best Buy. Although they charge a $75 diagnostic fee, which sounds like a bit of a rip. My Mac guy charges $25.

No prob. I just googled it. :-) Sometimes  Microsoft's Knowledge Base
actually has some knowledge in it. Most of the time I think it's too complex and tend to avoid it. It only seems to really come in handy when dealing with bugs/answering some problem that thousands of users have had. Draw your own
conclusions.
