Thanks so much Mr Gates for making such delightful products.

This Vista install tutorial should be of some help. All the required tools should be available at any decent office supplies store.

Anyway, to paraphrase Monty Python, "...they got better" (eventually). After trying all sorts of things to fix it, in the end we don't know why, but both machines are now working okay again.
