Hi,
I bought a 30gb refurb which I have been using since November 24th-ish. It has since got louder and hotter. There is also a peripheral problem, as I have had two perfectly work mice-one is a wired PS/2 optical and the other is a USB wireless optical, and they both randomly stop responding and I have to restart the computer. I uninstalled a few things from the Add or Remove programs tool, which crashed shortly afterwards. Last night it crashed and the mouse+keyboard stopped responding even though the USB reciever was recieving when I did things. and I had to restart again, and it has since been slow and stuttery. I read a few of these are signs of faliure. Can anyone tell me whether or not I'm about to have a faliure on my hands? I could really do with getting a new one if it is about to fail... thanks
