HDD health was 88%
Reset BIOS, didnt work.
after the xp loading screen, a black screen comes up for about 1-2 min.
Desktop is rly slow, then after a short black screen 1-2 sec. speed is normal(ish)
Computer usage 100%.
Most things run very slowly.
mobo done?
someone said i should change the ram sticks, and that they are causing the slowness and usb problems after an outage?
Its happened three times, first time, downloading xp service pack 3 helped.
second i just left it to sit for a week, then my laptop HDD gave up and i tried to hook up the PC again, no go. waited a day, tried again, works.
Then another power outage yesterday and im clueless.
