So then I pay to send that back & then buy some expensive shit here to make sure it's not a compatibility issue with generic stuff.

Load windows, thinking yeah I'm on the home stretch. Now it's doing fkn crazy shit that makes no sense... programs shut down with no errors, programs won’t load... what spins me out is that a program like ABC seems to freeze but is still responsive. So all the stats are just still... "downloading at 114kb, eta 3hrs".. just sits there frozen. Then you stop one of the torrents & restart it and it jolts it back to working again. It's just weird.

Anyway point is I spent 4 hrs yesterday installing, loading drivers, setting up outlook with all the accounts, configuring all the BT clients... now I have to do it all over. This geek shit fkn breaks your heart sometimes... I have better shit to do with my time.

i know your pain.. i also just built a new pc recently and had problems with types of memory new core duo chips and bloody 8 pin cpu power instead of 4 now and all sorts problems.. 1 ide port instead of two. cd rom drives not showing up it almost brings u to tears.
