i think norton utilities has a program called Disk Doctor, and I've saved a floppy or two using it before. I think you can download the trial version of norton utiliies on symantec's website.

when you tried each stick of memory individually did you test them in the same slot? I've had ram slots go bad on some old systems, and they just won't boot if a stick is in there. Aside from...

I had the same problems that you described below. I found through many a message boards that this error in IE is caused when I was running McAfee VirusScan and Kazaa at the same time. this is below...

I'd be so pumped for a chair like this, but why bother hiding everything? I say make it as apparent to the average person as possible. Once I'm in that chair, I'm not likely going to leave for a...

Thanks so much for your replies, I just had to change one jumper and it now runs at 1.39GHz, :)
In regards to the Chaintech 7SID, I like this motherboard. Its small but can still support up to...

a 1:1 (one to one) copy means that every sector is exactly the same on the original disc as it is on the copy. Some cd's have copy protections which prevent getting a true 1:1 copy. Or so I've been...

Sounds like the strangest thing I've heard of in a week or so. :) How did you figure out that this drive becomes a magnet? Is it in a case? Well the other major question I have is, have you...

yeah i heard that the Matrix DVD would always lock up WinDVD after like 10 minutes or so, on some older versions at least. I'd make sure that your software is up to date and close any other programs...

Can you see the d: in my computer? my guess is that the cd-rom may have gone bad. Not always so common but not impossible. When you were playing Diablo, do you need to use the cd to play the game?...
