[MEGATHREAD] Personal Computer - Updated builds thanks to Logical Increments

[KoopaScooper]

Is it so much to ask for Windows to not over zealously overwrite the boot loader on all of the drives that may be connected when you install it?!  Seriously, I would like to install windows without having to disconnect my linux drive because for some goddamn reason the windows boot loader cannot detect Ubuntu anymore.

Edit: okay, windows wrote the boot loader to the secondary drive that I didn't even touch when I installed windows.  Great programming, guys!

I can say I know this feeling. When I reinstalled Windows XP after having Fedora installed, it decided to delete my EXT4 "/usr" on the secondary drive and replace it with an NTFS partition containing NTLDR, destroying my Linux installation.

My PC keeps running out of RAM extremely fast. Along side that I keep getting .dll crashing errors.
Also text and such on my screen keeps glitching out.

Any clue on whats happening? It just started this stuff.

How could I get my speakers to play into my mic while still being able to use my microphone/headset?

Are you trying to play music over voicechat or something?

[ultimamax]

Exactly that, ye.

I have a question, when ordering Hard Drive Disks does the connector come with it or do I have to buy that separately?

Also I'm starting to wonder if I should trust Newegg, I've noticed a lot of people saying that their poor packaging has caused parts to be broken upon delivery.
