    I hate this ing laptop. I'm tempted to just go buy a new one but I can be a cheap mother er. I never did replace the hard drive and I would get occasional crashes that started becoming more and more frequent up until today when it won't even boot. I'm 95% sure its not the ram since I've removed it and run it one stick at a time and it the problem still persists so its either the board or the HDD. If its the board then the laptop is probably worthless and not worth fixing, right? If it the HDD then I'm sure I can fix it easy as pie.

    I did find my original backup discs though, so I have those but now I keep getting a hard driver error when I try to boot it. I'm going to run that microscope program if I can find it I guess.

    Oh, and Danny I need a new flatscreen since my other one died too. I'm down to one monitor and after using 2 for so long it ing sucks.

    electronics.

    Do not under ANY cir stances buy that ty PC Mechanic program from iolo technologies.

    Mrs. ASF put that on her laptop for many of the same reasons and it made them worse. And their so-called customer service is a freaking joke. "We're sorry you're having problems with our product. Please uninstall it and download the newer version of it for free"...fine, except the old version that she paid for refuses to uninstall itself.

    iolo technologies.

    That will tell you if the HDD has issues.

    I can't believe you never checked the HDD fitness this whole year.

    The one in my HP went to in about three months, but the Indians in tech support got me a new one fairly quickly. New hard drives are cheap and you can get them with three to five year warranties now.

    Try either this:

    http://www.ultimatebootcd.com/download.html

    Or find out who makes the hard drive in your laptop and get the testing tools available for free from their website.

    The first link actually has the diagnostic tools for all hard drive makers (Samsung/Seagate/Western Digital/Fujitsu/Hitachi/Maxtor/Quantum/IBM/ETC), and has memory diagnostic tools as well that you can use if somehow your hard drive actually passes.

    I got memory errors. I was going to test each stick in the slots but I've run the laptop with one stick at a time with each of the sticks so I'm thinking they are either both bad (unlikely) or something on the board is bad.

    Its an Acer Aspire 5100

    If you want to be thorough you should test them individually as well, you can never assume anything

    Yeah I'll test them again in a bit. I'll probably go buy a new stick anyway since they're so cheap and if I get a new rig I can just throw it in there.

    I wouldn't buy another, just test each stick and go from there.

    Your new rig would *hopefully* use faster memory ;-)

    I'm testing each stick individualy now. I'm going to test each one in Each slot too. First stick already has errors in the first slot.

    I can't say what the issue is just yet, but you can never assume that, for example, two sticks of memory WOULDNT go bad at the same time.

    Of course another thing to consider is that one stick went bad a long time ago when you first posted, and another went bad recently, which is a lot less coincidental.

    Where about do you live? What type of memory does your laptop use?

    Errors from both in each slot.

    PC2-5300 DDR2-667 200pin SDRAM SODIMM is what I'm supposed to use in it.

    What brand is the memory?

    I have at least one 512MB stick of PC2 4200 (which Crucial says your laptop will take). I'm supposed to have another but I haven't found it yet.

    Don't forget if you use torrents there is a nasty (trj) out there that will knock out your HD and the NTLDR file. You have to do a compete wipe of the HD to use it again.

    It doesn't physically damage the hardware, but it can delete files such as the trojan he mentioned.

    I see. So by knocking out the Hard Drive, he really meant the files in the hard drive?
