    System won't boot after manual shutdown.

    So my friend bought a new hard drive and it still froze up. After a lot of testing, it seems to be the chip/mobo. Thank you all for your helpful suggestions.

    What are the laws for buying and immediately selling a vehicle?

    Easier said then done. Subaru 2.5RS. Also, when you sell the car and sign the title over, you are also suppose to notify your DMV (MVA); that along with a bill of sale shows that the car is not legally under your name. I mean, isn't that the point.

    So I bought a pair of Ray Ban Aviators that turned out to be fake(pics included)

    Curious, how much were the fake ones? I go fishing all the time and I've replaced my sunglasses quite often. I wouldn't mind a pair of fakes just for the purpose of losing them later.

    System won't boot after manual shutdown.

    Thank you much for all the inputs. Well it appears after several attempts of booting up in regular and safe mode, my friend was finally able to get into safe mode and transfer all files to his backup hard drive. However, it still won't boot into regular mode, and on top of that, he says it will...

    What are the laws for buying and immediately selling a vehicle?

    I am switching out a body panel, and taking some rare after market parts from it in exchange for the stock parts I currently possess. I guess my question was if it is legal to pass on a blank signed title. I am guessing it will be okay. Thanks for all the replies.

    What are the laws for buying and immediately selling a vehicle?

    I drive a pretty rare car, and finding the parts are often difficult. However, I recently stumbled upon the same car for a great price in NJ; I live in DC. I was thinking of purchasing the NJ car, and then to switch out some parts and sell it again. I was wondering if there are any legal limits...

    System won't boot after manual shutdown.

    Last night I decided to transfer some files from my flash drive to a friend's computer. When I plugged in the USB drive, the computer couldn't recognize it and displayed an error; the exact message I no longer remember. So I use the Window's shutdown function and rebooted the computer, and after...

    Korean Prodigy Guitarist

    I think the kid is great! Definitely shows that he has put in time and effort, but I would not go as far as saying he is a prodigy. I'd further argue that effort matters more than natural ability. It is not that Asians are taking over everything, it is that immigrants are taking over...

    About $25 a month for gas for 1000 sq. ft in DC metropolitan area. Temperature is set to 75'F but it's still cold because of a draft coming from a utility closet.

    Where can I find/rent/buy for cheap a Planetarium Projector?

    As a birthday present to a good friend, for whom astronomy is a life hobby, my friends and I have decided to throw a party for him. In keeping with the space theme, we thought that having some sort of planetarium projector would be a good idea. But where on Earth can I find one? Deadline is...

    Putting new engine into a $1200 Chevy Astro worth it?

    I've been searching around for a new car; new being relative here. I've always thought the Chevy Astro van to be pretty helpful. I finally found a '00 model off of Craigslist for $1200 with an engine that looks to be shot. 1) How much would a new engine cost? Like $1500 maybe? 2) How much...

    Craigslist job offer = possible scam?

    As a recent graduate, the market out there is pretty tough. Out of desperation, I came upon a CL advert looking for an Administrator/Personal Assistant. I emailed a cover letter along with my resume and this is what I received back: Now straight off the back I am a bit suspicious for several...
