[QUOTE="Bleazle, post: 389001, member: 53582"] hmmm.. I can't see where to enable this - I found a link ([url=http://www.watchingthenet.com/how-to-enable-boot-logging-for-fixing-startup-problems-in-windows.html]How To Enable Boot Logging For Fixing Startup Problems in Windows[/url]) which says this can only be enabled in safe mode though... So if I grab the CPU and I can smell a burning pork sort of smell does that mean it's too hot?? :D I actually thought it might be an overheating issue because the other day I left it for a while and it rebooted just fine - damn! guess I'll have to drag everything out, unhook all the cables and get in there with the vacuum cleaner. I'd rather do everything a the same time so any advice on upgrading the RAM - "Just do it"? re: memtest86 - looks like a floppy drive is needed to run that? my HTPC doesn't have a FDD....
