Just found this...
error discription

The file system structure on the disk is corrupt and unusable. Please run the chkdsk utility on the volume \Device\HarddiskVolume2.

does that mean that the HDD could be faulty and not the software?there is hundreds of them.

No.....
It's probably Windows7 who you've been blaming all along.

BTW i'm suprised you even got this much assistance with the snooty attitude you started with...

Like mentioning we have no idea what we're doing here etc.

On top of the fact Win7 was installed on another machine and then swapped into this one ...

Best of Luck.

i wasnt being snooty as you put it. just certian people (not you ) werent helping and just saying oh its you. and i didnt say everyone didnt know, actually most of you know your stuff really well which is nice. any you got to realize how frustrating this is. i mean i spend a thousand dollars or more to get this computer and a stupid little problem is making this a waste of money.

If i missed it i apologise but where is thei Ver. of Win7 from ? ?

Never answered...there are documented cases of this happening from a certain Vendor which is why i asked...

[nitelife2989]

all the parts are bought from tigerdirect.com

the Windows i Have happens to be a OEM

[patio]

From Where ? ?

[nitelife2989]

the software was bought off of tigerdirect.com (i know dumb to order off line)

[patio]

When you say OEM do you mean it shipped with a system ? ?
You also need to determine if it was originally from Digital River...

[nitelife2989]

i didnt know what OEM was till today. a friend told me that its the same as windows but not supported by microsoft. dont fully understand yet.
and how do i tell where it was originally from only thing i can find on the case is printed in canada

on the box i just noticed it says 'OEM sysem builder Pack intended for System builders only" www.microsoft.com/oem/ 
dont know if that makes a diffrence or not

     Nite, I'm currently in the same situation as you right now. I came up with a possible PSU myself. I also turned to Windows Vista AND Windows 7 when things went downhill. I think that all stemmed from the flood of reports from so many MS consumers. I honestly thought my system was a waste also. I understand your frustration. I was also frustrated to such a point that i wanted to through the computer right out the second story window. What i did is put the computer on the side burner for awhile before the computer's issues consumed my life. I am not back trying to solve my PC's issues. Hopefully i get things sorted out myself. Best of luck to you in your pursuit to fix your machine.

P.S.- After stepping back and reflection upon my less then perfect situation i realized that the same guys that are here helping you out now taught me so much about the steps that are necessary to diagnose an issues within a computer. Their trying to teach us both the basic lessons of computer hardware for FREE!

thank you for your sharing your experience nate. i did a Few final test and concluded that the software and HDD  and power supply are all in working order. as BOOZU stated in a previous message it may be a Faulty motherboard so I sent the Motherboard back with the CPU and i will find out in 2 days if that was the issue...

This is by far the best computer help forum ive been on.

Thank you everyone for all your help

Just to add a bit of info, I use an OEM version. So do many people. With OEM versions you only get the version of Windows you choose, i.e. 32 or 64 bit, but with the normal version you get both 32 and 64 bit.

[nitelife2989]

thats good to know, as i didnt even know what OEM was.

As for my PC i replaces the Motherboard and processor and the PC has been on for 22 hours with out restarting. it appears my issue was fixed.

thank you all again.

[my computer]

itis very nice

I guess Windows 7 Professional will suit you perfectly. I will use this exact OS on my next PC Build (If I choose to build a PC).
To make preformance smoother, add 2GB extra of RAM.
