Don't know if any of this will help as I'm sitting in front of your PC, but might be worth a try.

REally big deal because I can't install the new version of "games for windows live" and I can't use any game that uses "games for windows live" all because "games for windows live" has to uninstall the old version but can't because.... and just .... makes me so sad.

Sixty Symbols on Why Glass is Transparent

probie says...

My next question would be how does a mirror work? If the photon doesn't elevate the energy level of the electron, and doesn't simply pass through, what causes the reflection of the photon?

Edit:
Nevermind...

How does the mirror reflect light? The silver atoms behind the glass absorb the photons of incoming light energy and become excited. But that makes them unstable, so they try to become stable again by getting rid of the extra energy again—and they do that by giving off some more photons. In practice, the back of a mirror is usually painted black, covered with wood, or pressed against a wall, so as much light is reflected as possible. Silver reflects light better than almost anything else and that's because it gives off almost as many photons of light as fall on it in the first place. The photons that come out of the mirror are pretty much the same as the ones that go into it.
