That I'm only getting 3mb yet I should be getting 10mb. I hate my ISP.
When I turn on my PC, go to the kitchen for water or to the toilet, then return back and realize that I forgot to turn on the monitor. Then it has to light up (takes about 2 min to reach the stage where it's contrast is perfect).
I hate boot time too, but the new technology being developed should help that.
The windows safety virus scanner that always fails when recieving files on MSN/windows live messenger so you can't click on the link MSN/windows live messenger creates to open the file but have to go find the file manually.
When people claim that the size of your computers Hard Drive = How powerful the computer is :bang:
Person 1: How much memory do you have?
Me: 4GB
Person 1: really? hahaha Mine has 500GB
Me: /facepalm
This is probably my fault, but the hard drive randomly starts searching in the middle of a porn party.
My HDD is noisy, it sounds the same as my old one, which I thought was broken.
Oh, and false positives that I know are false positives. They lock whatever I was working on.

-When problems don't go away no matter how many times you reinstall Windows...
-Not fully computer related, though I had to download a DIFFERENT version of an IRC client on my phone (BlackBerry Bold) to allow it use wifi, rather than my nonexistent data plan. Now I have two versions of the same program because of this stupid phone.
-My desktop takes longer to boot up with my eSATA external hard drive plugged in.
-My internet drops when I'm loading a few pages and using IRC, while my brother in the next room plays Xbox (Both on Ethernet).
-I plugged an Ethernet cable into the Xbox 360, and not even pliers can get the fucker back out.
-I always have motherboards with CPUs around here, though if I wanted to put a machine together, the PSU+Case would be more expensive than the parts I have laying around are worth.
When i rolled over my usb dock for my External hard drive enclosure, destroying the usb plug.
Someone I know was talking about the flash memory on their phone when they were trying to argue that theirs has a high capacity of a regular 8GB iPhone. Needless to say, when he thought he had 100GB (what the fuck?) of flash memory on his phone, and when he pulled out the microSD card it read 2GB. I lol'd so hard. Let me also mention that this same person thought he could get 3G internet on his iPod Touch.
Picture of said phone(similar):

As for PC problems, just yesterday I was replaying EP2 and I got the part just before you see Gman for the first time. My computer crashes RIGHT then, just at the exciting part.
Another thing was a problem I use to have back when I used XP. For some reason, every time I right clicked a error would pop up on screen saying that I needed to insert a disk to continue, and I would have to cancel it in order to get my right click functionality. It was so fucking annoying.
Itunes pops up everytime you plug your Ipod in, and there is no option for it to not do that.
When the document you are working on crashes because you press save.
When people ask me to build them a computer with a $200 dollar budget

i believe there is
If you have multiple computers in your room connected to the same monitor (server, xbox linux, etc), I hate typing on the wrong keyboard, or on the keyboard plugged into the wrong computer. I always cancel the most important shit :(
Oh and a single word synonymous with RAGE:
Permissions :bang:
That I don't know why whenever some Flash is around, my mouse and keyboard get stuck for 15 seconds and it's sooooooooooooooooooo fucking annoying. I swear I started crying once while playing tetris.
Having lots of cable clutter inside your case. I spent the whole weekend just working on cable management because it bugs me so much.
When my network is fucked up and windows tells me to contact my network administrator. When I am the admin.
Dumbasses who try to buy a full i7 920 with DDR2 ram and an AMD motherboard.

Any installer with some shitty toolbar bundled in.
Really sucks because I usually just mash enter without reading anything.

My friend has gotten RAM for Christmas two years in a row, both times he couldn't get them to work because he just picked randomly from a list of RAM.

Also I thought "Mac" was written with a big M. It doesn't seem like you are appreciating it when you don't even capitalize it correctly.
*capitalize it correctly :eng101:

I hate when hard drives fail. I had a 2TB drive fail on me (one of the newer WD Green drives that are known to have some bad batches). Thankfully, the drive that failed was in a Drobo so I didn't lose any data.
Programs such as iTunes bring windows into Basic mode
When programs use too much CPU
Windows says it suggests that I restart after some updates, by 'suggest' they mean 'demand' right when i'm writing an English paper
When my laptop is supposed to hibernate, it turns off
When Ubuntu 9.10 says my disk has too many bad sectors, I run a shitload of defraggers, Ubuntu STILL says it has too many bad sectors, then i'm forced to downgrade to 9.04
Laptop gets VERY, HOT AND LOUD forcing me to turn it off out of fear
when windows doesn't allow me to edit files, it only lets , Trusted fucking User, then I have to start patching files -_-
Shutting down the proper way takes 10 minutes
When I try to run a little program I code, if theres a problem CMD closes without telling me why it didn't work, so i'm forced to take a really quick print screen right when the window pops up
Once in a while windows doesn't recognize anything in the SD slot
Windows.
