    Computer Can't Boot

    So it says System Restore couldn't' access a file. I assume Ill just have to boot off a disk and reinstall windows? Also do you have any recommendations for other for Anti-Virus besides Avast

    Unfortunatley it doesn't get that far and just brings me straight to the start up repair screen.

    Computer Can't Boot

    Windows starts and goes to start up repair and is unable to repair the problem. It says the root cause is that "aswRvrt.sys is corrupt". This is after a power outage that occurred in my city if that applies to the problem. Should I just completely reinstall my OS or is my boot drive defective...

    Mice With High Maxiumum Malfunction Speed?

    I currently have this mouse which I was quite satisfied with (for a while): http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=9SIA0U01131533 However, I'm a fan of many competitive FPS games (such as CS:GO) and this mouse doesn't meet my needs. Whenever I need to do a very quick movement in...

    What kind of enclosure could I use to dissipate the heat?

    Internal turned external HDD is producing a lot of heat.

    I recently took one of my HDDs out of my PC and used a sata to USB to connect it to my computer. I've found it produces and extraordinary amount of heat and heats up the room my PC is in. Can any of you guys think of a solution? Thanks.

    New AMD driver trouble

    The gist of the problem is this: I was playing Payday 2 and it had stopped responding so I alt-tabbed out of the program to force it closed via task manager. The program did close but afterwards my computer proceeded to freak out (opening a ton of random programs, launching them over and over...

    No display after shut down

    My display isn't turning on. I shut off via my power button whilst logging off (because it was taking well over 5 minutes) because my game had stopped responding (CS: GO if it matters to you). Anyways, all of the LED fans, the video card fans, and the HDDs are on but there isn't any display on...
