How does a computer often encounter bad clusters?
It's pretty rare these days, due to the advances in the stages of manufacture for the hard-drive. Bad clusters - are areas of damage on a computers hard-drive. during a diagnostic scan, it's possible to 'mark' these bad clusters, so that the computer bypasses them when it needs to write information onto the disk.

What steps can you use to fix the mbr?
Hey there,
This is what worked for me...
1. First you need a windows recovery disc, either from the internet or one that came with the computer.
2. If you have already tried the usual, "Fix Startup Repair" and it doesn't work continue.
3. First boot into the recovery disc and select your language and windows os from the list.
4. You should now see a bunch of options going down the page, select cmd.
5. Type in
bootrec /rebuildbcd
bootrec /fixboot
bootrec /fixmbr
bootsect /nt60 C: /mbr /force
bootrec /fixboot
bootrec /fixmbr
bootrec /rebuildbcd
attrib -h -s C:\boot\BCD
del C:\boot\BCD
bcdedit /createstore c:\boot\bcd.temp
bcdedit /store c:\boot\bcd.temp /create {bootmgr} /d "Windows Boot Manager"
bcdedit /import c:\boot\bcd.temp
bcdedit /set {bootmgr} device partition=C:
bcdedit /timeout 10
attrib -h -s C:\boot\bcd.temp
del c:\boot\bcd.temp
bcdedit /create /d "Microsoft Windows" /application osloader
See the number it spits back - somthing like {c0dfc4fa-cb21-11dc-81bf-0050056c00008} write it down
bcdedit /set {yourenumberhere} device partition=C:
bcdedit /set {yourenumberhere} osdevice partition=C:
bcdedit /set {yourenumberhere} path \Windows\system32\winload.exe
bcdedit /set {yourenumberhere} systemroot \Windows
bcdedit /displayorder {yourenumberhere}
bootrec /fixboot
bootrec /fixmbr
bootsect /nt60 C: /mbr /force
6. Restart and boot into windows
P.S. If your bootloader looks like windows vista find a bootloader editing program that says it will restore it to default

What are microchips and how are they related to integrated circuits?
Basically they can be considered the same thing.
Micro chip may refer to the fact that it contains a micro processor.
A microprocessor is an integrated circuit that is designed to handle instructions from a software program and form the core of a computer system.
Integrated circuits are any type of device, that has many components etched onto a single piece of silicon and embedded in a plastic package with conducting legs. They include microprocessors, but could be amplifiers, logic gates, memory storage, complete radios, or other dedicated circuits that do one job very well.

Deleting from the start menu will only delete the shortcut that is there and not uninstall the program. You need to go to start, set program access and defaults, add or remove programs. Find the program that you wish to remove and uninsall it. if you want to make sure all traces( registry, associated files, etc.) are deleted, then try out a program called revo uninstaller.
Why is virtual memory used even when sufficient RAM is available?
Because there is no such thing as "sufficient RAM." You could have 128GB of RAM in your computer and eventually you are going to run a process that needs more RAM than you have. In the old days before virtual memory existed, your computer just crashed when that happened. These days, your machine just goes to disk.
