Let's hope it's not a new motherboard purchase. At that point, you're better off just buying a new computer. I had my laptop's power system stop working and the guy told me a new motherboard would be MORE than what my laptop orginally cost.

@Kimmeh:

See, yeah, that's what mine did. The corruption stuff showed up just this past winter, and after the GPU issue had surfaced, so I originally thought it was part of the same problem.

But whatever. Despite all the Vista hate out there, I never really had much reason to gripe about it. It treated me well for three years.

B'aw....at least you know what's wrong with it though.

And that's weird about Vista. I have it on my Toshiba, and have never had a problem. If an update ever screwed anything up, Windows would catch it and reset to before the update.

Well, at least you know what's wrong with it and potentially how to fix it. It's better than sitting there in the dark.

Also, yay for Word.

:X That's not good, Alla! I hope you get that fixed soon. You can probably try some local computer stores. . . . maybe they're cheaper?

Bork is a fun word. Pity about the computer though.
