    Booting Problem...Horribly Stuck

    does that mean the case has totally destroyed the motherboards or should it work in a different case because I already tried swapping the case.. I failed to mention that in my post because I didn't think that would have made a difference, I was just getting desperate..

    Booting Problem...Horribly Stuck

    you mentioned something about not screwing it in properly and grounding issues. Is there something I should know about this? I have it screwed down, but could this be a problem?

Strange thing is that if I store files other than video or mp3/wave, it does not delete it off the harddrive. I can delete the file and clear it out of the recycle bin, but if...
