Tispower1, stop whining ya baby! lol. j/k but seriously, if it was the logic board to fail I'm looking at a huge replacement cost, which I probably won't do. I would gladly take a smashed keyboard over that :o)

Lem_Nx, lol, I guess everyone hates alienware but me. All I know is their systems aren't front loaded with crap you don't need, they have good support and their hardware gets rave reviews. But I guess I see why people don't like them, I'm just saying they aren't using their name to excuse selling crap systems. The quality is still there.

TWRoO, I may have gotten that wrong, it could be msconfig. Like I said, it's been a while, I don't remember exactly. It did seem to help me on my old computer, not leaps and bounds... but slightly better framerates. Hmm, are you on Vista? Might be different there, I just looked on my XP start menu and sure enough "Run" is right where it always was. But I really want someone smarter than me who knows more about this stuff to confirm this process for you. I don't remember it well enough to advise.
