Re: Windows XP Repair

I normally do not do this but I'm going to be a bit "rude". I have not been with these forums long enough to really have any say so but I find it offensive that you call someone trying to help you rude. Any computer owner has some responsibility as to keeping backups. Is your data backed u...

Re: How to, HDD, memory broken
