So, I have decided to format my PC

so i put dvd with vista load it up all cool but when it gets to screen to chose hard drives i see small black dots that i can remove with my mouse (WTF?) then the screen goes completely wacko and after like one minute, screen goes black and i get no signal in monitor...i have tried two different version and get same results ><

hopefully xp will install at least Sad, had to try 3 different version before it would go to install screen :/ but they worked before...is it my pc acting up again?

i guess gotta test everything in vmware everytime i get different windows edition

Vista fails ... in general. You were blessed to escape it.

Something is up. Maybe hardware related, reposition your gfx card.

I think its my graphic card getting overheated. I was playing wow and suddenly it froze and rebooted itself and it would happen again

I opened up my case and touched the video and its pretty damn card

I have one fan in front that is blowing into my hard drives

One on side that is blowing air in and other on the back that is blowing air out

Should i reposition them or maybe add another fan somewhere?

Hire a cheap hooker. Give her some money, tell her it's for a blow job. Then make her blow on your gfx card while you're playing WoW.

Oh, record video, upload to youtube
