Yea, I can see if I can lend you assistance there Psycodad, I know you were on earlier and I dragged you up to another channel and then you disappeared. I can always give you always give you a call if TS isn't going to work or drive up there if need be. I could use a road trip.

NP Psycodad. Wish I could help. I've heard that Dell has really crappy service so I for one would never purchase one from them either.

Please explain what's up with the PC. I have a Dell and it has problems every day, so I am experience in the torments of owning a Dell.

A friend of mine had the same problem with a brand new Dell. It was a bad hard drive. Test the hard drive or have it checked somewhere.

Have you ran a scandisk?  Since its is your system partition you will need to reboot and let it run on boot.  Make sure to check auto fix errors.  Also run any scanning software in safe mode.  What we use at work is Mcafee for antivirus and Lavasoft's Adaware, Spybot, and Malwarebytes for adaware/spyware/malware.  All are free except Mcafee.  We run all three adaware programs on any scans we need to do, if you do find any viruses/adaware/spyware/malware reboot into safe mode again and rescan.
