Sorry to hear that Widow. Sounds like it's time for carbonite.com. I installed that on my wife's computer (the only important computer in the house ) It's great peace of mind! Quote
+Olham Posted July 21, 2009 Posted July 21, 2009 Geeze, Widow - we better not tell, what you're doing jobwise, eyh? But what do I say? I have an 80 GB external backup drive - and haven't saved any of those things! Must do that now - thanks for the reminder! Quote

+Hasse Wind Posted July 21, 2009 Posted July 21, 2009 Sorry to hear that, Widowmaker. It seems drives are carefully engineered to destroy themselves some time after the guarantee has expired. I lost one laptop just like that last year, and it was only 2 years old. Quote
