    Sony VAIO, bare bones XP wants to install to drive E

    Got an older Sony VAIO that, upon reinstalling a fresh copy of XP, forces the install to E: instead of C:. Do not want. Apparently if you have SD/MMC/MS slots, those take precedence for some reason. The BIOS gives me jack for options (I can't disable the slot). Any idears o ye fellow...

    Anyone have a Dell Dimension 23xx?

    Got a system where the owner decided to "fix" the onboard video (and now the pins are all bent, broken, and generally fucked up). I told him we could install a new PCI video card (gag), and I have done that, but since I can't get into the BIOS to switch the primary display to PCI, the thing...
