i can has tech success

So my computer has been telling me it can't start things, when I start up, because it's missing some .dll file or other.  Also when I open PhotoShop, it says it can't open it because of a missing .dll file, although then it carries on opening it.  It's more annoying than anything else, but I wanted it to go away.  So I searched for the .dll files, found them elsewhere, copied and pasted them, and now I am getting no error messages.  Hurrah.

However, the other night, I ran my dishwasher -- and when it was done, I opened it up and everything had a sort of film on it.  Urgh, I thought, this must be because I mistakenly chose the "hot start" option -- not that I know what that means.  So I ran it again, on a regular wash -- and when it was done, I opened it up and everything had the same film on it.  ARGH, I thought.  So I ran it again on Rinse Only -- and when it was done, I opened it up and F$#&(!*&  *$(!@!

i have rinsed all those dishes by hand and put them away, and they're looking better now.  But the next time I run it, on regular wash and not "hot start", if I get a film on all my dishes I'm fucking calling the front desk and making them get someone up here to repair the damn thing.
