| Win7 x 6 PC's 36,547 posts California, Florida, Boston | Test your memory using memtest86 for 5-6 passes or overnight. Test your HD using maker's diag/repair full CD scan: Hard Drive Diagnostics Tools and Utilities (Storage) - TACKtech Corp. Make sure you have the latest BIOS version update from computer/mobo maker's SUpport Downloads website. What is the SATA controller setting? Try AHCI first, then IDE.

| Windows 7 Ultimate 64bit 175 posts | Thanks Greg. I ran the in bios memory test and it passed. However the hardrive test resulted in the error "Hard Disk 1 Quick (303)" ? Does this mean it failed???? |

Laptop is still in warrenty... so hurray... : P Thanks for all the help... |
