    How do I get the bluescreen of death to stay?

    if you have another machine see if you can mount the drive as a secondary and run diagnostics on the bad drive - you may just have a few bad sectors causing the bsod. chkdsk may take care that -- good luck

    Who do you Sys Admins use for Vendors?

    you can certainly find cheaper prices than CDW (understatement) but the problem is do you really wanna spend x-amount of dollars to have someone take the time to shop around? I can think of a few other uses for someone being paid 75k+ a year other than shopping around for a printer in the hopes...

    there are 254,908(+/-) other good reasons to install SP2 -- security features or not, XP SP2 is MUCH more stable than XP SP1

    Slow PC UPDATE

    I'll 3rd or 4th the vote for reformattin' that bad-boy.. once a machine is that inundated w/ garbage it'll never be the same. to "fix" it is prolly gonna take you twice as long as if you just start over and in the end it likely won't be "fixed".

    I've been hacked, again

    Your config is exactly like mine down to the D-Link router. The only thing different is the torrent usage (I never touch the stuff). Since I've never been in your situation I'm guessing the torrent use may be the culprit.

    CHKDSK not working for this HDD.

    There's no way I'd spend that much time messing w/ it if I could recover my data (which you said you already had). Not the answer you're looking for but I say just reformat the thing and be done w/ it.

    T42 for $750 or Macbook for $999..

    I've never met anyone w/ a T-42 (including myself) that was disatisfied w/ their machine.. much to the contrary. I have however met more than a few Macbook owners who weren't entirely pleased. -- I've had a T-42 for 2.5 years and I can't count how many times I've thought to myself, "damn! I love...

    New Popups - where are they coming from?

    That's spyware. Try SpyBot as well as Adaware and make sure both are updated before launching. Hopefully that will get rid of the pop-ups but it seems like they're getting increasingly hard to get rid of save for reimaging the machine. Good luck.

    Your experience with Vista Beta 2

    OK, I guess I'm an idiot but I'll ask the stupid question: after I've downloaded the .iso from MS and burnt it to a DVD, what then? I have my laptop set to boot to the CD first but it's not working. Does the format need to be changed from .iso to something else? if so, how?

    Laptop proc of choice ?

    Core Duo seems to be the best right now. And w/ that budget forget about the 5400rpm drive; go w/ a 7200rpm and you'll be happier.

    Core Duo vs. Turion

    If we were talking about the average earthling then you'd be right on the money.. but we're talking about Team Mac. - you could slap an illuminated white Apple icon on an old toaster-oven and those folks would gobble it up like hot-cakes and declare Steve Jobs to be, once again, the Messiah. :P
