Problems Problems 2.8 New Install

Let me start with I use WordPress a lot with many blogs never had problems some are my own installs and others I used my Web Providers install. I just installed 2.8 (not sure which) after a 2.9 dreadful falilure (I think my provider is the problem, Awardspace.com). The only plugins are hte ones that came with the install. At first the problems started in the back end while I was logged in. I installed a few themes and they all worked very well. At first I tried editing a couple of themes. Everytime I would try to save the edits my screen would go grey and then, nothing, it would just hang. The changes would show on the front end but the backend would just hang. I found a solution that said to turn off the new editing feature and I did, but everytime I did the page I wanted to edit would reset itself to the css page and when I would go to the page I wanted to edit the editor would revert to the new feature. This happend every time I would try to make the change. Now today I have tried to login to the back end. I was able to bring up the login page but I get nothing when I login. just a grey screen, the same grey screen I was getting when I tried to make changes in the back end before. wp-admin is now just a a blank screen. If someone could please tell me what’s going on I would appreciate it. If not I’m ready to dump the whole thing and go back to version 2.7

By the way my provider is using MySQL 5.1 and PHP 5.2.5

4.4.4 and 6.0 are available.
