    On one of my other computers I had a problem with no sound, so I tried to do a system restore using the disks. After they both were done installing I got a message saying "Your system has detected a config. error (Code Purple)" If someone could help me on this I would be very thankful, and pay you. Thanks for your time.

    Yeah I used the disks thatcame with the computer, thats where I went wrong. When The tech. replaced my mother board he never told me about the whole tattoo thing. So when I tried to do a system restore with the original disks my computer went bye bye (Code Purple)
