Hi there,
Ive had a nightmarish ride with my computer but my current problem is
i have a new ABit VA-20 Mobo and when i run windows 2000 installer
the computer just turns itself off! It says all the "loading" bits
and then when it says starting windows, just turns off. WIndows XP
gets past starting windows and gets to the screen saying "press enter
to install XP, R to repair an installation etc" and then turns off.
Im currently planning on dousing it in petrol and setting fire to it
as this may at least afford me 2 mins of enjoyment. However, any
alternate ideas would be appreciated!
