Dear Technical Support,
18 months ago, I upgraded to Girlfriend 1.0 from DrinkingMates 4.2,
which I
had used for years without any trouble. However, there are apparently
conflicts between these two products and the only solution was to try
and
run Girlfriend 1.0 with the sound turned off.
To make matters worse, Girlfriend 1.0 is incompatible with several
other
applications, such as LadsNightOut 3.1, Football 4.5, and Playboy 6.9.
Successive versions of GirlFriend proved no better.
I tried a shareware program, Slapper 2.1, but it had many bugs and left
a
virus in my system, forcing me to shut down completely for several
weeks.
Eventually, I tried to run GirlFriend 1.2 and Girlfriend 1.0 at the
same
time, only to discover that when these two systems detected each other
they
caused severe damage to my hardware.
I eventually upgraded to Fiancée 1.0, only to discover that this
product
soon had to be upgraded further to Wife 1.0. While Wife 1.0 tends to
use up
all my available resources, it does come bundled with FreeSexPlus and
Cleanhouse2005.
Shortly after this upgrade, however, I found that Wife 1.0 could be
very
unstable and costly to run. Any mistakes I made were automatically
stored in
Wife 1.0's memory and could not be deleted. They then resurfaced months
later when I had forgotten about them. Wife 1.0 also has an automatic
Diary,
Explorer and E-mail filter, and can, without warning, launch TurboStrop
and
Multi-Whinge. These latter products have no Help files, and I have to
try to
guess what the problem is.
Additional problems are that Wife 1.0 needs updating regularly,
requiring
ShoeShop Browser for new attachments and Hairstyle Express which needs
to be
reinstalled every other week. Also, when Wife 1.0 attaches itself to my
Saab
93 Convertible hard drive, it often crashes.
Wife 1.0 also comes with an irritating pop-up called MotherInLaw, which
can't be turned off. Recently I've been tempted to install Mistress
2005,
but there could be problems. A friend of mine has alerted me to the
fact
that if Wife 1.0 detects Mistress 2005, it tends to delete all of your
Money
before uninstalling itself.
Dear Tech Support:
Last year I upgraded from Boyfriend 5.0 to Husband 1.0 and noticed a
distinct slow down in the overall performance, particularly in the
Flower
and jewellery applications, which operated flawlessly under Boyfriend
5.0.
In addition, Husband 1.0 un-installed many other
valuable programs, such as Romance 9.5 and Personal Attention 6.5 and
then
installed undesirable programs such as: Football 5.0, Rugby 4.3 and
Cricket
3.0. Conversation 8.0 no longer runs; it simply crashes the system.
I've
tried running Nagging 5.3 to fix these problems, to no avail. What can
I do?
Signed,

Dear Desperate:
First keep in mind, Boyfriend 5.0 is an Entertainment Package, while
Husband
1.0 is an Operating System. Try entering the command:
C:/I-THOUGHT-YOU-LOVED-ME to download Tears 6.2, which should
automatically
install Guilt 3.0. If that application works as designed, Husband 1.0
should
then automatically run the applications Jewellery 2.0 and Flowers 3.5.
But
remember, overuse of the above application can cause Husband 1.0 to
default
to Grumpy Silence 2.5, Happy Hour 7.0, or Beer 6.1.
WARNING: Beer 6.1 is a very nasty program that will create Snoring
Loudly.
CAUTION: Whatever you do, DO NOT install Mother-in-law. This is not a
supported application and will crash Husband 1.0.
In summary, Husband 1.0 is a great program, but it does have limited
memory
and cannot learn new applications quickly. You might consider buying
additional software to improve memory and performance. I personally
recommend Hot Food 3.0 and Lingerie 7.7.
Good Luck,
Tech Support
