I hate this computer. Help :(
« on: January 13, 2009, 01:27:09 PM »
Fucking thing. I just re-formatted it about a week ago, and the installation was perfectly fine. But my firefox is constantly crashing, my computer is randomly shutting down on me all the time, when I try to install things, half the time it sais the files are corrupt (Which they obviously aren't) and my installers don't work half the time. Wtf is going on with this hunk of shit.

Sounds like you might have bad RAM.  Grab the ISO for memtest86+ and run that overnight.  If you see a lot of red at the bottom (or, worse, it crashes) you'll need to buy some new memory.

Yeah, that would really be a bad sign.

Heh, memtest crashed on my friend's system when he had bad RAM.  It was unexpected, to say the least.

I said fuck it, I went and bought a new computer. It was only the harddrive, but that computer was a hunk of shit anyway.
Anyway, only spent 300$, got an amd 2.7gig Duo core processor, Some motherboard that supports it, From readin the box it sais "ECS Elitegroup, Geforce 7050M-M Motherboard" and some other shit.
2 gigs of DDR2 ram, and a Geforce 9500 GT graphics card. (The 1GB one, not the 512 one) And a new case, new harddrive, new dvd-rom burner. Guess its not too bad for 300.
