Post by Dragonus » Mon Jan 01, 2007 2:14 pm

ok soo laptop got fcked up it was working fine yesterday. when i turned it on today after windows booted up i got some blue screen. with some error sht. i tried safe mode. same thing. I even put in the boot cd to reinstall everything and start fresh after i press f8 for the process to start i get the same screen.. and its not the typical one with an assload of letters. It's like something installed may be causing the problem but i cant uninstall anything if i cant get to my accnt.. is there i way to unistall from one of the menus? before comp boots up windows? or is it fcked up and its time i get a new one?

More importantly I added up what it would cost to buy the best in every component of a computer, well alienware added it up. Yes I know they would throw in a little extra, but what does 1000 dollars do when you are looking at nearly 10000 dollars? Yea 10,000 dollars, and one day im going to own a computer that costs that much. that bitch has 1500 gbs of hardrive. Is it even possible to fill that up?

And my condolences drag, I have no idea what to do. Normally I just take a hammer to my stuff and it generally works.

yea alienware is good i bit overpriced on some components but w/e and i really dont think its possible to fill up a terabyte (1,000g) unless u share sht on website for people to download.. lol btw the XRL (i think its called) or w/e i tried putting everything in it even extra crap and it came out to 30.000 o_0

ive given up on laptop.. lol bitch wont work.. i tried searching for the error but all the resolutions are only good if u can log into account and remove the program causing the problem..fcking annoying last option is to turn everything off in the bios and see if it works... if it doesnt work il invest in a cheap dell for now since its mostly for school work...

Yeah, when you get a blue screen like that with Windows XP, it is either a hard drive failure or one of your fans died and your CPU is turning itself off before it gets cooked.

Was Drag looking at porn???

Anyways, it's easy enough to do that to your HD without really trying. These days you just have to be careful about what you download. If you happen to have a Windows XP disc, you can often boot to the CD and run the repair console. From there you can run a check disk that usually fixes the problem (always run it a few times just to make sure you got any disk errors).

lol no it was not prn... limewire had been giving me problems with some annoying erros messages and i also downloaded media player along with some weird converter that was in german lol. i was lazy and didnt uninstall them so next day i got this fckng issue.

i did try the cd but with the error the hd was running something and it made the error pop out so i could never repair.. i tried the full format but it was a no go. and im not good with the "R" option cuz u have to type what u want repaired... im not very good with BIOS and all these weird settings soo yeah... also i did not have any anti virus o_0! i guess something might have came in.

The way New Years fell and Gerald Ford's death set everyone back a day. All federal offices were closed Tuesday (due to his death), so if it was being shipped by the USPS then it's a day behind.
