- I have absolutely no bloody idea...
I'm typing this out on my xbox 360's chat pad so i apologize in advance for any horrendous spelling/grammer... its also 5 am.. so some latitude is appreciated..
-----------
ok, first things first. i tried one of the games that came pre-installed on the computer, a microsoft xbox branded game(you guys know what i mean....) called pinball fx2(i think..) and i liked it...
windows messenger was of course being rather flaky, which it was doin off amd on, so i paid it no mind.
then panda cloud wanted an update and restart, so i allowed it.
first signs of trouble was that weird font issue i described and screenshotted on another thread(on the xbox.. cant link to anything here..) and then i noticed the volume mixer taking a REALLY long time to load... we're talking really low demand stuff like the calculator by the way..
i figure, lets try a restart. nope. takes forever to pull up the desktop. then it wont shutdown. ended up holding the power button down to do a complete shutdown.
bootup today, shes running fine. i spent all day on her. watched the better part of ironman(the live action one) then ejected the disc, went to power down for bed.
its once more doin the slow/unresponsive routine.
i have no idea whats wrong here.
some help would be welcome.
