Just came back from a meeting, attempted to dock my PC, and got "Error: OEMSPIF.DLL cannot be loaded", when my PC attempts to change its display size.
Some sort of software problem.
The usual way to "fix" such problems is to reboot.
Instead of rebooting, I will go home. I wonder how much time is lost when people quit, rather than spending the time to work around this sort of stupid PC problem.
I'm going home because of time fragmentation. If my PC were up, I could work; but if I have to spend the 15 minutes to half an hour, or more, that it usually takes to become functional after a reboot, I don;t have time to squeeze in any useful work before I go home.
I.e. PC reliability problems make it harder to deal with fragmented work time. And lots of working hours get lost to fragmentation.
Sometimes a quick blog entry is all that you can squeeze in.

Had a similar problem this morning: I required two reboots before I could get anything done. Software patches...

Lest it seem as if all I do is complain: I *am* trying to make this situation better. But I can't talk about that.
