Starting to feel somewhat like the hell cold is on its way out! Less coughing fits today (of shorter duration than before) PLUS between last night and up to this afternoon I blew out about a large teacup's worth of thick green nastiness. This means I can pretty much breath normally through my nose for the most part! Also when I do cough I get up a healthy dose of mucous (more so than the past 3 days combined) which is what normally happens the last 2-3 days of me having a cold xD

Technically in five minutes if you're on the east coast.

Well... I never do anything for it anyway, so I guess I'm not missing much

Of all the things to be corrupted, Windows Error Reporting is probably the most amusing I've seen in my time working in IT, just because of the irony of it. I know it doesn't do much to help that your PC is being RMA'd.

My diagnosis is that your Windows 10 install was probably corrupted by an update. I doubt that the error is hardware, but I'd have to look deeper to be absolutely sure. The fact that attempting to do a repair install corrupted it further supports this, too. By chance, was your Windows 10 install an upgrade from Windows 7 or 8, or did the computer ship with Windows 10 on it?

Again, sorry about the RMA...

The computer shipped with Win10 on it. The upper level tech seemed to think that new RAM had been installed and perhaps improperly, to judge from his questions and reaction to my answers. When we first sent it in, shipping was on us and this time, they're paying, so they are accepting that it left their shop with a problem that is covered under warranty.

I'm crossing my fingers for you.
If the RAM isn't inserted properly though, the computer wouldn't boot and would beep awful sounds at you instead. If the RAM is at fault, it indicates a more complicated problem with the RAM internally.
:omg: We've had a number of those at work. It's the worst sound.

I think there's been a mistake. Maybe you meant to post this version.

Okay brain, we're not in college now. Can the all nighters stop?
