Finally, something that recognises the "Freedom of Information Act". Incase you're wondering SOPA supporters, yes the act is real :) ...atleast more real than SOPA currently is :laugh:

Windows is the problem here... you need to reinstall Windows. I cannot help you with the SSD install, simply because I don't have the time. 1. Reinstall Windows 2. Turn off unnecessary services, heres a guide to what service does what and what the site believes is safe to turn off >...
