I Suck at Computers......

So today my Internet dropped out while downloading Mass Effect 2 from Steam, after about an hour of trying to fix it It still did not work. All my wireless devices worked fine (Ipod Touch, Netbook.) but my main desktop would not connect to the network. I continued to try and find solutions when a startling thought occured to me...
What if i restarted the thing, madness, surely I would be committed if I were to attempt such a thing. But I did anyways, and damn it, it worked.
So basically now im scared of my computer skills, I know just enough to fuck stuff up, but not enough to do anything useful. I once got as far as typing stuff into the weird console window with the black and white text, in order to set up a static IP address for something and after awhile I gave up out of fear I'd do something I wouldn't be able to come back from. I also hear people who play PC games reformat alot, i barely know what that means but damn it sounds terrifying. That and reinstalling windows which sounds like something only a person who truly hates themselves would want to do. That said, I know more about computers than pretty much everyone around me, if only i felt like it......
Anyways, I just wanted to vent my computer angst, hopefully im not the only one who can't do krap with computers.
