Why does my computer suck so much?

Post by Dempsey »

Keep your lists short and to the point. No seriously, I have (another) problem with my machine. The recycle bin crashes. It's tied to the 40 gig i have. I was moving some stuff to it from my 80 gig when the computer crashed. There's some sort of problem with the stupid IDE expansion card which the 80 was on but im just gonna get a new one. Anywho, if i try to delete anything on the 40 it generates an error report. I can cut and paste stuff but not delete. The main problem is that the recycle bin also generates the report. I can't free up any space on any drive like this. Any ideas? Besides an old priest and a young priest. Or fire.

If you are using Fat32, I would recomend a CD based Linux Distro. That way you can determine if it is a Software Issue or a Hardware Issue.

I would like to point out that when I had 6 HD's and 2 CDROM's windows killed it self within 24 hours. This happened twice. This was when I switched to Linux in first year.
