Tonight I'll run memtest on one stick, and I guess tomorrow night the other. *sigh* This is gonna be expensive to fix isn't it?

After running memetest for 15 hours, the same error popped up 22 times over 26 passes. I tried using each stick on its own, and neither seemed to relieve the problems I'm having. Any ideas?

Can memtest help me identify the problem or is it just to inform that there is a problem?

I ran memtest for about an hour and a half. Through 4 passes, one error popped up (on the second pass). Where do I go from here?

I'm now almost certain the problem revolves around some sort of invisible character limit. If I try to submit a large forum post or edit more text into a small forum post I get a timeout. If I make a short post it'll go through every time. What could be causing that?

If it is, how do I go about fixing that?

No luck after reinstalling Firefox.

Please can someone help me.

Anyone?

Lately (within the past week) my wireless Logitech has begun acting up. Double-clicking when I only single-click. Unclicking when I click and drag something. Makes it hard and very frustrating to do simple tasks like resize a window or rearrange icons. Might there be some dirt or something...

My hard drive of several years recently got sent to a farm in the countryside, so today I installed a new 200GB Western Digital drive. Aside from losing everything I've ever loved, the transition has been going fairly smooth. One rough spot though, is the now ridiculous time it's taking my PC to...

So if I switched molex connectors, IDE cables, blew any dust out of all connection points, tried the jumper in every possible position, and the thing still goes unrecognized and runs cold and quiet, everything's gone for good? Great. Just great.
