I want to buy this thing since my computer broke down. But I dont know if it is any good. I want to erase my entire hard drive and re-boot Windows Xp because it crahsed. Should I buy this thing?

Is it a scam?

Let me take a look into that. I know if you reofrmat your HD and re-install Windows that's all you really need to do and you don't need any special software.

OK, WTF is the actual product? Is it ALLL of what is listed. It didn't seem quite clear to me. BUT if your computer is dead and you need to reinstall it nothing here is going to help you. I'd simply use the reinstall disks.

I would take it to a local independent PC tech if I were you. Here out west they run between $65-100 per hour but it's TOTALLY worth it because you have a HUMAN BEING to talk to...

That E-Bay thing probably works for someone who has a little PC experience but I can't really recommend it for a layperson.

Don't trust Geek Squad or any of the big name Inc.'s find a guy on C-list or someone with reviews on Yelp.com or something, heck as neighbors, friends and relative for a recommendation... everyone's had PC troubles at some point...

Did your PC come with any restore discs? Usually all you need to do is boot the computer with the first disc in the drive.

Thanks guys. I think I will re-format my hard drive to erase everything off of it.
