So today my computer is doing something unusual, Ive seen it happen before and thought the guys at memory express fixed it but it has returned. I restarted my computer today and it gets stuck at the post screen and will not boot Windows. The only way I solve this problem is by repeatedly pushing the reset button on my computer until it boots. I suspect its a hardware issue because once I get into windows I notice that my DVD drive no longer appears in the Computer window. Last time this happened I had my video card, and dvd drive replaced. I really hope I dont have to do this again. Im using Windows Vista 64 bit. My PC is only 4 months old. Any suggestions that doesnt involve lugging this rig all the way to memory express?
