sounds like the problems I was having with mine except mine would crap out bout once a month and i'd loose everything, it because a ritual to do the monthly re-install.
Dell would send people out or suggest to re-install it every time, thanks dell that was very fuckin helpful! Then one day a support guy told me the secret... first when you call immediately ask for a level 2 manager & if there are more than 3 support issues they must give you a new one, which of course they don't tell you but if you bring it up they "suddenly" remember it. It's been a few years so that might be gone now.. oh and btw~ they gave me 3 new ones and none worked better than the others. But really should you expect more? I mean they are cheap computers with cheap parts. Mine was an 8250 and cost about 3k at the time, what a rip-off. my solution: 1. picked it up 2. carried it outside 3. threw it in garbage can 4. got in car 5. drove to apple store 6. got new puter 7. drove home 8. havent had a problem since. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Adobe® ColdFusion® 8 software 8 is the most important and dramatic release to date Get the Free Trial http://ad.doubleclick.net/clk;203748912;27390454;j Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Community/message.cfm/messageid:264114 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Community/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=11502.10531.5
