hardc0regamer is a little bit unhappy but will get over it...news at 11
That's about how I feel right now. Yesterday I received the laptop back from Gateway. Works perfectly. They replaced the screen, RAM, HDD (again), keyboard and innards. Runs nice & quiet, it might be all brand new.
I just had installed the extended-freeware trial of Alcohol 120%. Nothing else changed. Rebooted...
Then, after the BIOS/CPU/HDD/CD-DVD drives are recognized it displays the following:
WTF !!!A disk read error occurred
Press Ctrl+Alt+Del to restart
Now what do I do?

Did you leave a CD or floppy disk, or USB Storage device in the Laptop when you rebooted?

So.... Have we learned anything over these past few weeks, hardc0re?

So what's the computer problem? Can that HDD be recovered? I have DiscRite v6.1 if I need it (thanks Rav. !!!!)
btw, at this point I will consider a small claims lawsuit against Best Buy as they sold me the P.O.S. and then refused to return it. by law, they are obligated to fix it for a minimum of 30 days or the manufacturer's warranty if I bring it into the original purchase location. I think that's worth a $65 court filing fee & a few hours of my time....they really need a beating. Lucky I save all my paperwork on everything. those m*****f***ers.
btw, this is what Best Buy thinks about its customers. They refer to 20% of their customers as Devils....well this devil is going to be their Satan upon Earth. I'm so furious, they're lucky I don't work for the Postal Service. GO POSTAL!!

AH-HAH!
I hooked up an external enclosure of the HDD to another PC & the data was fine!!
*wipes sweat from head*
/notices large puddle of yellow liquid below....
So like..i'm going to back up all my important data EVERY FRIGGIN 2 days....because this gave me a colonitis or something:eyeball:
I swear, my PCs are possessed by the Devil. Will have gateway exorcise out whatever caused the mobo to do this. They claiim to have replaced the ram and done NOTHING to the mobo. I made a mark on the bottom of the HDD before sending it, same mark there. They did replace the screen, which was nice. Also installed a new keyboard/keypad for the lappy.
So i guess i learned a lesson....don't d/l so much junk & get back to work. It pays the bills. BT does not. later~
