Hello, I have a Sager 4760 (D470W) that is no longer starting up properly. It starts sometimes but does not boot into windows. After that, it'll turn on for a few seconds then power off immediately. Sometimes it beeps at startup with...

Well, the only thing I've tried is xmms to play mp3's (which it no longer does). I believe some other packages need to be installed for this support to be enabled. Beyond that, everything else seems to be working well.

Well, Kerio seems to be the "AVG" of the firewall world. It's a great product. I'm torn now between giving up hibernate and standby, or Kerio. Decisions, decisions!
