...registry, a humongous file that helps initialize programs, is often where problems arise. "When it's corrupt, it's almost impossible to repair," he said, noting that hardly anyone in the support world will muck around with it--better to reinstall Windows. Which was what the CompUSA support guy taught me how to do, showing me an easy way to make a Win98 boot disc. Ten minutes and $25 later, I was well on my way to fixing my machine. Someone still needs to fix Micron's software support, though...
That's where Ed Pekurny, the guy McConaughey plays in the new Ron Howard comedy EDtv, works when he isn't tossing one back with his rakehell brother Ray (Woody Harrelson) or refereeing battles at home in a blue-collar section of San Francisco.

Chris Eigeman (the cocky guy in Whit Stillman films) underplays the New Yorker perfectly, avoiding the overly neurotic. And in what may be the bravest turn ever, Jennifer Grey plays herself, with lots of jokes about her nose job, past boyfriends and desperate desire to be recognized...
