Stupid Dells!!!!

[freakonaleash1187]

dell has to be one of the worst computers in the world. there seems to be something always wrong with it. it took 2 1/2 hours to install a different video card. it freezes all the time and it pisses me the hell off. why cant things just work like they are supposed to.

My dell works fine. They have decent tech support and maybe the problem is the fact that YOU installed the video card. Idunno, I haven't had problems with dells

the rules of 0% computer headacke

Rule #1. Don't buy brand name computers, go custom
Rule #2. Don't try to install other parts into brand name computers.

Actually Dell is probably the BEST brand name computer you can buy. Unfortunately, as is with anything someone is bound to get a shit machine. I had one(until I built my own, yes it is great way to go Neutrino) and my dad and roomate have one. No problems ever on any of the machines. When I still had the Dell I got lost doing a re-install of the OS and Dells customer service walked me through it in no time. I've heard a lot of people complain about customer service at Dell but I don't know anyone that's ever had trouble with them. And they are ranked #1 as the best quality and customer service.

Sorry you got a shit model. However, if you bought a refurbished one, you get what you paid for.

Yeah, I tried installing a new video card in my dell and it messed things up big time. It kept saying it wasnt recieving enough power and shit and would keep going to the blue screen of death. I found that the service phone number verry helpfull in returning my computer to normal and found out why the instalation went bad. I didn't know that I had to uninstall the original drivers before puting in a new video card and some other stuff. But I am going to wait till my computer becomes outdated then I will build my own computer because that is the way to go.

You could have just bought a new power supply.

The higher end Compaq's tend to be a little better than just the run of the mill one. But it's still far superior to Packard Bell. I was always embarrassed for my friends that had one.

out of the large brands then you are probably right. However the best I would say is Alienware(they build computers as I would do - using only the best parts)

if build properly a custom computer will not go bad for many many years, me and polygon have computers we build over 10 years ago and still run like new.

I'm sure Oz or Yogs have old computers lying around too

BTW don't ask why we have ancient computers lying around.

plus the parts used in custom computers have in average 3 year warranties

Ahh Alienware is some sick shit. I just buy the best parts and put it together myself, as alienware is way too expensive
