jebbypalWell, all appears fine once again post-reformat. Computer is even going into hibernate mode w/out problem and all that:P *rolls eyes* Asquared check went fine and defrag as well.
However, there's no telling how long this will last. So I figure on monday, I'll take it to the computer store to get checked out -- they claim to be able to tell if anything is wrong even if it isn't acting up and it's just 40 dollars for a diagnostic. Stupid school repair center's prices seem outrageous compared to this place's 75 an hour if something is actually wrong. That and not really trusting anything at this school farther than I can throw it.
So that will give me this weekend to do a bit of judging before I go drop off my baby. Cause I really don't want to be doing a reformat every two months.
Of note, I decided against the one computer repair place that is actually closest to me physically because the guy that answered the phone had such a bad accent and inability to understand english that it took four times to convey the idea of computer repair rather than buying a new one.
