    Windows 7 on a laptop with 1 Terabyte memory. Plus I pulled my other hard drive (had the blue screen of death) out of my old computer and built it into an extra hard drive. Pretty cheap to do and I got a good backup now.

    I work in IT and deal with more computers than I can count.

    Donn, you sure its a virus or just windows crashing with an error? Probably should just reinstall windows and be done with it.

    Desktop at home is one I custom built myself for gaming and recording my music.

    Laptop is an Alienware 14T

    Motorola Xoom Tablet is my common use system. So much easier than a craptop or desktop.
