Mac or PC - Which side are you?

mrgeekindpink @mrgeekindpink (19) • Philippines 16 Oct 08

Brand competition among these two (2) are still blow by blow. If you have the money, which one will you buy the "Apple" (MAC) or "Mr. Bill Gates" (PC)? And why?

markymark18 use the 'safely remove hardware' feature... if that fails, it's either a rogue process in your computer, or otherwise your removable media is spoilt. do check the hardware settings for data cache as well. disable it if it helps.
