Yeah, it broke again.
I think the boot sector got corrupted somehow, because Windows doesn't even try to boot anymore.
I'm working on getting it fixed, but apparently the universe hates me or something because every time I make a plan something ELSE breaks.

So yeah.

This was the most bullshit solution to a computer problem I've experienced in a while.
Apparently my USB travel hub is bad, because it causes the computer to hang on boot.
If it's not in the computer, everything is fine.

And I went through the trouble of installing Ubuntu on another hard drive, because I didn't want to pirate a new copy of Windows.

I had some issues with a broken USB port which stopped the computer from booting correctly once. Luckily, the computer was nice enough to state it before turning itself off again. In the end I simply opened up the computer and unplugged that USB socket (it was the one in the front). No harm done.

And then, due to my computer now being a dual boot, my router decided that it hates me and had to be rebooted.
Seriously, this computer has been giving me nothing but problems this last week.
