My computer has been down for a while. And I'm not comfortable using the lab desktop to blog so I haven't done it lately. And as I mentioned before, I'm not good at writing once I get home. I'm not sure how to qualify what happened to it, it was in a coma then awoke for a few days, until I killed it. Now it has a new soul. Let me explain.
- Coma (data still there, just not accessible) - motherboard needed to be replaced.
- Revived, awoke from coma - motherboard replaced so it's a happy computer, for a few days.
- Dead, I killed it (no longer registered hard drive) - It had the unfortunately luck of being on my lap when I got really pissed at someone. While it was running I slammed it shut, physically damaging the hard drive. I lost everything.
- Receives a new soul - new hard drive installed, so it has the same body but all new insides.
I missed you too! Glad you are back. Sorry your laptop had to reincarnate, but hey if you are using windows, it might work nice and fast for awhile :) Did you lose any important data?
ReplyDeleteThat's what I said when I turned it on. Now I'll try not to clutter it up!
ReplyDeleteI had almost everything backed up. The only thing I didn't think of was my archived email, that wasn't on the server, and all of my bookmarks. I'm just a bit pissed about the emails. The bookmarks I can build back up but I can't get the emails back.
Hey.. I had a meltdown myself.. Threw away the windozeeeee.. Got myself a mac :) Can't wait to get back to putting some stuff on my blog.
