    Well i got your attention, (am i allowed to do this..lol, soz if im not) but its completly diffrent...sorry, Hard disk issues
    okok, Heres the story, i got ram for my pc!!! but!!! I thought since my computer full of viruses and crap id wipe my hardrive completly and do a fresh install :D! buT!! (using acer aspire) The recovery disks i had were scratched, well disk 3 was! so i borrwoed my sisters recovery disk (same computer model but her recovery disk was slightly diffrent, only 1 disk! not 4, and its theme was diffrent,
    uno, the recovery button START and all that) Then!! f i try and reinstall windows on my default ACER drive (never had this problem b4 with my or her recovery disks) it gets to 29% and freezes!!! aaaaand! if i try and install it on my other drive it freezes on 6%, ive tryed them on slave and master, i know all that stuff, but her disk is spotless, and it doesnt show any error messgaes, like they usally do! it just doesnt make sense!ive checked cables and everything, any ideas? its really bad, i think i might just have to download XP pro full of the net... But i wish i didnt have to! i couldnt be bothered!

    Well thanks in advance for any help!!!! :(
