Ok, so again today, the PC did it again. It worked fine for the first two times, then the third hung up on startup. Just made it to the intel splash screen. I turned it off, disconneted the power, waited and tried it again. Still no go. I turned it off, then when i got the dos start message hit f8. About 30-40 seconds later i get a dos screen wanting to know how i want to boot up, bootable device, hard drive, and something else. I hit hard drive and XP started.
Does this give you anymore ideas what might be going on. If you feel its the hard drive, i quess i can get a new one installed, and hope he can move the data over. If its the clock battery, when i change that will i have to reset all my Bios and Cmos. Any ideas are appreciated. I do'nt think this MDG came with a manual. One question if i have to get a new computer and go imac. I'll install windows to run my 1-2 programs, unless Aaron can fiind me MAC equivelents. If i plug in my external maxtor, will both XP and OSX read the files.
