I reformatted this past weekend. Actually three times. Each time was a chore because my wireless internet was conflicting with someone elses signal. I would install windows updates when I could get on the internet and restart the computer and again couldn't get on. On the first time formatting I booted up and it was going good. I went in to change my style of windows from classic to xp style and I accidently chose modified version. My screen went black instead of my icons. I couldn't change it back cause I couldn't see anything.
I started to format again. Reinstalled windows again. Going good until I restart and it has a check disc error. It restarts and after the loading screen comes on it goes blank and restarts over and over not bringing up my desktop.
The third time I got everything installed without a hitch. All drivers updated but sometimes I get a soundcard error, sometimes a wireless adapter error. After a quick restart everything is good. Sorry for the long post but is something wrong with my hardrive or something? My specs are below.
AMD X2 4200+, Asus A8N SLI Deluxe, 2bg OCZ pc 3200, 74 gb raptor, ATI X1900XT, Audigy 2 ZS, Enermax 500 watt psu.
