Don't update your drivers…

At least, not if you’re using a 6-7 year old tablet mouse on a Vista machine. After simply downloading Wacom drivers for my Graphire (that’s just Graphire, no 2, 3 or 4 there. Yes, it is that old) last thing last night, I rebooted this evening only to spend 2 1/2 hours trying to first fix the drivers and the second do system restore to yesterday morning when fixing the drivers failed.

As a complete aside – book series recommendation of the moment – Maria V. Snyder’s Yelena Zaltana series. I read Storm Glass (first book of her new spinoff series) by chance when Mum or Nan bought it for me for my birthday and loved it, and am now half way through the second book of the YZ series after getting them for Christmas. Brilliant fantasy but excusing the magic it’s mostly an adventure genre instead of pure fantasy. I don’t think I’ve read anything I can compare it to – it’s nothing like Harry Potter, Terry Pratchett etc, but if you like any of those you’ll probably like these.

Sister Ding’s birthday tomorrow! We’re eating venison 😀 We’ve been looking forward to it for over a week now! Woo!
