I work at gamestop and there really isnt a way around the red ring. But with the newer ones it doesn't happen nearly as often and it comes with a 3 year red ring warranty through microsoft so if it does happen it wont cost you anything but a minor...
I think the mac OS is a good OS but the fact that you HAVE to buy the comp from apple and pay outrageously for it is why i despise it. Im a PC tech and you can build a very good quality computer that looks good and has equal if not better specs fo...
I have a 2 2GB. One is kinda out of commission right now due to the fact that the flash memory was corrupted somehow and needs reformatted but my other one, that i actually got with the collecters edition of forza 3, i have on my keys and i use it...
Actually very helpful. The restrictions on the computers where I go to school are more of a hassle then they are worth. They block google searches half the time just because one of the searched words are not "School oriented" Thus why i stole the ...
ah, the repair should take care of any damage from a bad image.
And programs? Its things like iTunes, MS Office, basic stuff like that that i need to get my computer running and to be actually useful.

plus you stil...

Elaborate on the programs that you are attempting to run as you load up into windows 7 off the hard drives this leads me to believe that this is a software problem and not a hardware if windows 7 starts up correctly etc from the drives in question...
I posted a while ago about a hard drive format issue with Win7. It just turns out the Hard drive was un-initialized and i felt like an idiot cause i could of sworn i already did that. But now with my system (running win7 pro) has my OS HD (a 250GB...
Thats cool =) I didnt carve pumpkins this year.
I DID Dress up as a kind of steam punk style guy tho. I went trick or treating with my girlfriend and it was awesome. I had many people ask how old i was (im a junior in HS) and then went to two par...
I would have to go with Asus like many of you have.
My first build was with an Asus P5QL-Pro that i really liked. It fit the bill until the sata controller chip fried and my sata ports obviously quit working. I replaced that with a P5Q Deluxe whi...
