I've been accessing PhotoBucket frequently this past week and, except for the part where I have to use the old method to upload photos, have had no problems. Certainly not a crash. Others have spoken well of Picasa. Just make the distinction between Picasa which you can download onto your computer for photo management and Picasa on the web. Good luck! Ana

should not make any difference the service pack. Many computers simply could not install sp3 but if you have done all windows updates you pretty much have the biggest part of sp3 from those regular updates. I would try to power down and power up in sequence to see if that helps. power off to everything, computers, modem, router, everything connected. Let sit 5 mins, then power up in this order modem first let it get fully lit up, power up router let it get fully lit up, power up computers let them fully load till all activity has stopped then try it. Do you have a firewall on it? if so it could be something in the firewall settings, but if the power sequence does not work I would just try a quick system restore to the date when it was all working fine that may reset what ever got changed.

You probably have your computer set to automatically download and install updates. You can turn that off by going into the Control Panel and turning that feature off, but that's generally not a good idea. Here's a little more info from Microsoft's web site: Why use scheduled updates to help protect your computer?If you have not turned on Automatic Updates, your computer is more vulnerable to viruses and other security threats. When you turn on Automatic Updates, Windows routinely checks the Windows Update Web site for high-priority updates that can help protect your computer against attacks. High-priority updates include security updates, critical updates, and service packs. Scheduled updates offer: Convenience You don't have to remember to visit the Windows Update Web site or other online security sites to get updates. And you don't have to choose which updates are most important for protecting your computerÂAutomatic Updates looks for security updates, critical updates, and service packs, and installs them on the schedule that you set. Reliability Updates are downloaded behind the scenes whenever you're connected to the Internet. The downloading process doesn't interfere with other downloads or interrupt you while you work. If you disconnect from the Internet before updates are fully downloaded, the download process will continue the next time you connect to the Internet. Don't forget, however, that updates must be installed to take effect. When you schedule updates, Windows automatically installs them for you, unless you choose to be notified and then install them yourself. Up-to-date software You set the schedule for Windows to install new updates. This means that Windows is routinely checking for and installing any important updates that your computer needs. Even if you choose to be notified and install updates yourself, you still learn about important updates as they are released. By scheduling updates, you can quickly and easily keep your computer up to dateÂwithout thinking about it. As a final point, I doubt that the updates are the reason you are having graphics problems.
