3/2/2010 3:09:01 AM I had a game installed before the new hard drive was installed & the operationg system was re done from scratch again. The game ran fine before, now it locks up & shuts down at a certain point into the game. I had already passed this point before the computer was fixed?

2/8/2010 7:21:20 AM Computer worked beautifully until the end of December 2009. Since then it has locked up in normal and safe mode. We are trying everything we can think of to make this computer run smoothly once again.
