I, like yourself, went to my computer with a sledge-hammer each time I tried to install any OS of the NT variation (NT,2K,XP and now 2003 or .NET). I did and never looked back. Now all OS's work, load and...

The thing is that I'm currently doing V.C.E at High School and I need to study. Due to the fact that I'm a bit of a computer freak, the bios chip failing when it did was a god send.
