    BTS: CD Loading problem

    Hey everyone! I have a somewhat bizarre problem involving the CD just not reading the first time I put it in for a session. When I put the CD in, the title screen loads, but after clicking play and watching the loading screen come up, nothing happens. It just sits there for a few minutes...

    My computer has a demon!!

    After coming back from a long weekend out, I turned on my computer. Much to my surprise, rather than booting, it began to make strange sounds; there were a high pitched wail and a speedy clicking sound. Both seemed to be coming from the case. The monitor only showed a blinking cursor in the top...
