haha sorry i had too.. but on the real that sucks.. ive had 2 comps die on me before for stupid shi* like that.. they cost so much damn money now
just reformat LAWL
I've got a Dell Windows ME computer that's fucked, but I'm 99% sure it's not a virus. Since I have stuff I need on it I'm going to try taking out the hard drive, put it in a hard-drive enclosure w/USB, and run it to my Windows XP laptop. Has anybody here done this?
yeah putting it an a 2.5" usb enclosure would do the trick. or if youve got a working desktop computer u could open the case up and see if theres an available IDE cable for hard drive and just hook it to that to transfer it over

I did try to fix it...and it worked for maybe an hour...now it doesnt even start windows, the screen just stays blank
reformat windows noobie=)
...and if you purchased your computer from one of the mega-companies, use the restore disk. If not....stick in the Win CD and boot from CD. Enjoy the fresh install.
i did reformat windows, and it worked for about an hour, then stopped working again..so now im just hopping from office desktop (horribly slow...) to my parents laptops. im definatly(sp?) not going to be logging in as frequently
