Yeah, supersparks, you should make note that anyone in this situation needs to set their partition as active, otherwise windows will have no idea how to repair anything.

Sorry, I forgot to mention.
I've tried:
startup repair.
bootrec /fixmbr
bootrec /fixboot
bootrec /rebuildbcb

Ok, so, this is what happened.
I bought a new 1.5TB drive and installed windows 7 on a partition on it.
I already had a Windows Vista install on my 160GB drive.
The windows 7 installer decided...

How do I say this.. Windows XP is Windows 5... Windows Vista is Windows 6..

When I made that statement...

that does not negate the usefulness of UAC...
Sure, it isn't as secure as it could be when people use it that way... but programs that are not suppose to be privileged cannot change settings.

I'll take it you guys are less fond of UAC..
Instead of bashing the "guy" who programmed it, why don't you say why you don't like it..
All the other operating systems have similar systems..

Hmm, I can't do polls?
Eitherway, I am curious..
Who loves it? Who hates it?
The reasons I like UAC is because everything I run while in user mode doesn't have enough privileges to do...

Performance is suppose to be improved by alot..

Did the price on that OCZ unit go up? and lol, the xion is gone o.o
I am actually thinking about trying out a tuniq power supply. The price is right, and they seem to have decent reviews.

I went to my computer a few hours ago and it was off and wouldn't turn on.
I took out the motherboard cable and shorted green to black and nothing happened. This leads me to assume that the power...

SpywareDr posted a guide on how to do this.
SpywareDr: that guide is rather complicated. Do you know if you really need to go through all those steps? It seems like there would be a script...

I bought a bluetooth mouse from thermaltake on black friday. Installing it seemed pretty simple... however, when installing it, it asked for some "WACOMM installation disk" or some sort. First file...

breathing room, hmm?
well, I assume that if it actually needs more room I'll actually run out of space.. not just have less than a GB of it..

There is no way windows needs 8.2GB to operate.. does anyone know how to possibly clean up the folder?
I figure it should only be 5 or so GB.
3.41GB is in C:\windows\winsxs
3.5GB is in...
