Answer» Quote from: Ecardius on June 30, 2008, 08:40:10 PM Well besides the wonderful CDROM that I have to replace. Were you able to get it open?Well this is LOOKING a bit more gloomy. While in safe mode I was going through the Ad/Remove programs just trying to free up a bit of space here and there. While I went to uninstall Quick time (about a 3mb file) the computer hung and the turned off...I was able to install CCleaner which I ran fully and it cleared up close to 500 registry errors and I was able to install the Tweak Now Registry cleaner which took care of 4 listed errors. But when I go to install the AVG anti virus it says I must be ADMINISTRATOR to complete the install , even though I choose Administrator on login Quote from: drmsucks on June 30, 2008, 10:19:18 PM Quote from: Ecardius on June 30, 2008, 08:40:10 PMWell besides the wonderful CDROM that I have to replace. I gotta grab a paper clip today at work Guys do you think I should just reinstall Windows? Or Maybe Run a Windows Repair with the Disc?Bump^No need to bump and it wouldn't hurt to perform a Repair.

If you dont have precious FILES there, I would suggest you do a reinstall..ALRIGHT So I went to reinstall Windows and the thing turns off again during the install...So I say *censored* and throw in another harddrive to replace this one all together and I get a few strange beeps and then an error message saying Disk Read Error press Ctrl + Alt + Del to restart...why would this happen I have always swapped harddrives in and out of computers prior to this. Man Emachines are complete garbage Im sorry I have this computer. Have you replaced IDE/SATA cables?i suggest that you do check for errors on memory( like other members suggest) or if you have a spare RAM Module, you can swap and test your system again( i think this is easier than running memory test, you simply swap your old RAM and you're done,just be sure that the RAM you use is tested GOOD, and it is the same speed...) when memory fails, you can experience strange problems on your computer and if you read all the post here, most of them access the memory...... i suggest you try it first..... hope this helps, Goodluck! A vacuum should never be used to clean a machine...the static generated is more than enough to fry a MBoard/CPU and or everything else. eMachines are notorious for weak cheap PSU's...borrow a known working one of the same or greater WATTAGE and swap it in there to see what happens. |
