I saw this same anon post in a few other legitimate threads, and the site itself does appear to be real and legit. It's at least partially on-topic in this board, so the general consensus was 'leave it' I think.

I don't want to take my chances though.

Japanese citizens are building DIY geiger counters and collecting radiation data. Let's help them.

If we can get schematics, we can make geiger counters and ship them to Japan.

Please spread the word to DIY/techie communities.

Dude, I don't know what horrible things you do to your Windows installs to make them fail that hard, but I can promise you it's never been that bad for anyone else I know... XD

]]> http://151chan.org/bill/res/124.html#125 1) Backup all of your important files right now both on optical media and cloud storage if possible.
2) Consider if Windows is still worth the hassle.
3) If yes, reformat+reinstall weekly or monthly, depending on how lucky you are and how self-destructive your Windows install is feeling.

These steps have never failed me.

All right, I'm sure Ceol and the other techies know this, but I'll post it anyways for the rest of you.

There's a few things you can do that are relatively cheap, and fairly easy.

First and foremost is backing up and making system restore files. I don't need to say much here, as Windows (At least windows 7) has tools for both.

Now for the awesome tricky things. Grab a *SPARE* USB stick and a DVD-R or RW, if either is available. 1GB should work, but I recommend at least 2GB in case you want to save stuff on it.

Download puppy linux:
http://puppylinux.org/main/Download%20Latest%20Release.htm
and install it onto the usb drive. This distro is built to run off them, so it's all good.

Download and burn Ubuntu:
http://www.ubuntu.com/desktop/get-ubuntu/download
(any distro works, ubuntu just seems to be the easiest) onto the DVD.

You should be able to boot from the DVD and possibly the USB drive. I don't mean install, I mean load into a fully functional desktop without installing ANYTHING. It's Fancy. What's the purpose?

If your windows bluescreens or corrupts, you now have the ability to access, copy, and save all of your data, presuming you either have a large enough USB drive or an external HDD - or you can just run linux until someone can fix it for you. :3

The final thing you should do is make an emergency windows install disk that uses either the code from a box (If you bought windows separately) or the serial that should be on a pink and blue sticker on your computer's case somewhere.

That way, once you've copied the important files you'll be able to get windows back up and running.

I suggest writing the serial on the DVD, just in case.

Tadaa! now you should be able to, at the very least, continue to use your laptop after windows dies.

PS: if you don't understand something, let me know. I'll go through it a little more in-depth.

I do have a "spare" computer that I can do test installs on, so I could create a step-by-step guide.

You should download a terminal emulator, a task manager so you can kill superfluous processes (programs aren't killed when you leave them), communication software, such as Skype, AIM, the like, and possibly some barcode software. Other things depend upon personal preference, like Psx4droid, Pokedex, SNES emulators....
