get a mac
"we were going digital, ignoring all but the most core matter from history and focusing on the most complicated structures in order to make our lives more simple, but we could not escape from the cage, the past, and "reality" so we surrendered to short term drug euphoria." - John Albertson (on LSD)

As far as your computer shutting down is concerned, it sounds like it might be overheating. Try to open the case and check all of the airways, also check your fans and make sure they're clean. Computers do some weird shit when they get too hot.

my computer used to randomly shut off whenever it felt like it

then accidently one day i popped my burned tray out and forgot about it. now whenever i keep that open, it doesnt shut off. albeit, after a year of doing so, my burner no longer works, but it's just a small price to pay

As for your files that won't move or be deleted.  I had the same problem.  I downloaded this program MoveonBot. Link: http://www.sharewareconnection.com/gipo-fileutilities.htm

Really simple to use.  You browse and select the file. Then reboot your system.  And its gone.  Hope this helps.
You're so cool...Yea, God made me cool.
