Subject : Upgrade from a girlfriend to a wife
Last year I upgraded from Girlfriend 7.0 to Wife 1.0
and noticed that the new program began unexpected child processing that took
up a lot of space and valuable resources. No mention of this phenomenon was
included in the product brochure.In addition, Wife 1.0 installs
itself into all other programs and launches during system
initialization,where it monitors all other system activity. Applications such as
Smoking 10.3, Boozing 2.5 and Saturday Night Pubs 5.0 no longer run, crashing
the system whenever selected. I cannot keep Wife 1.0 in the background while
attempting to run some of my other favorite applications like Night Club4.3,
Dance Drunk’s and Bachelor Party 7.77. I am thinking! about going back to Girlfriend 7.0,but
the un-install does not work on this program. Once I tried to un-install Wife
1.0 but got this error “General Protection Fault in Module
House Security. The un-installation will abort.” Can
you help me, please!!!

Dear Software Engineer, Ref : Upgrade from a girlfriend to a wife This is a
very common problem men complain about, but is mostlydue to a primary
misconception. Many people upgrade from Girlfriend 7.0 to Wife 1.0 with the
idea that Wife 1.0 is merely a UTILITIES & ENTERTAINMENT
program. Wife 1.0 is actually an OPERATING SYSTEM and designed by itscreator to
run everything. It is unlikely you would be able to purge Wife 1.0 and still
convert back to Girlfriend 7 .0. It is impossible to un-install, delete or purge
Wife 1.0 from the system once installed. You can not go back to Girlfriend 7.0
because Wife 1.0 is not design! ed to
do this. Some have tried to install Girlfriend 8.0 or Wife 2.0 but end-up with
more problems than the original system. Look in your manual under
“Warnings-Alimony/Child Support” which was given to you at the time of
registration with Wife 1.0. I recommend you keep Wife 1.0 and just deal with the
situation. Having Wife 1.0 installed myself, I might also suggest you read the
entire section regarding General Partnership Faults(GPFs). The best course of
action will be to enter the command C:\APOLOGIZE. In fact I would suggest you to use this
command every time Wife 1.0 crashes on your system. Wife 1.0 is a great
program, but very high maintenance. Consider buying additional software to
improve the performance of Wife 1.0. I recommend Flowers 2.1 and Chocolates 5.0
or Movies 4.5 which will improve the performance of Wife 1.0. Do not under
anycircumstances, install Secretary With Short Skirt 3.3. This is not a !
supported application for Wife1.0 and is likely to cause irreversible damage to
the operating system. Best of luck.
