    I have had a driver BSOD issue since I got it and I cannot seem to resolve it, so I am simply going to start from scratch.

    Anyone have any issues with a system restore I should be aware of?
    Or any advice?

    Thanks in advance

    One thing I would suggest is use the Resource CD and have it Scan the Hard disks.

    See I had the Same issue and it ended up being 2 bad hard disks. Due to Fedex. One work and the other disk did not. Then a short time Later the Other hard disk started Failing.
