Before this, it was working silently and smoothly but out of a sudden, it starts making annoying and loud noise that is very disrupting. Could it be the fan? Is it repairable?

My friend deleted his computer administrator account to just have a
limited account. As you already know, this other type of account allows him to change just a few settings. He said that he opened a computer administrator account for his girlfriend, but he cannot find it now. As you can imagine, he cannot do almost anything with his limited account, so there is no way that he can create a computer administrator account, change his account type or re install windows XP. What can he do when he just has ONE account, but is limited?

I am trying to backup my files in a more orderly fashion. RIght now everything is on zip disks... I have over 20 gigs of files of pics, graphics, websites and misc stuff...

I never had much luck with CDRW's they tend to get currupt with time. I am also not much for a 2nd harddrive because that can crash as well..

Anyone with any other alternatives???
