I don't recall doing any bullying. Indeed I defended you when someone
else suggested that you had not bothered to use google to find the
most likely cause for your problem.
Also, whilst it is true that you did not specifically ask for the
answer to the error, we all assumed that if you hadn't had the error,
you would not be looking at ways to diagnose the problem itself. Thus
we all tried to be helpful. Sorry if you didn't like that, I'll
remember next time to only answer very specific questions that you ask.
