ezlead 42 Posted August 23, 2009 Hi All: I am presently on my son's laptop. Yes,I had the dreaded system crash. As far as I can tell it is the CPU that went bad. I am presently researching the web for another CPU replacement. As far as I can tell the hard drives(storage) were not involved. I will try to keep in touch as much as possible. PS I like the new format. It looks very professional. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wrench 9,733 Posted August 23, 2009 Oh, man, that sucks!!! And i was going to pm you about almost done update for Okinawa; I've moved a lot of the carrier stations closer to japan, added some more static ships, some more shipping routes and other semi-minor changes. Map now is 99.9% complete ...and almost ready for uploading DRAT!!! Hope you get up and running soon. wrench kevin stein Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
+Typhoid 231 Posted August 24, 2009 me too. I think my hard-drive crashed. Usually I have been able to reload the operating system and press on. Not this time. the tech has had it for a week now. I do have all my data backed up, but not accessible at the moment. I'm having Thirdwire Withdrawal...... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ezlead 42 Posted August 27, 2009 @#$%^&*^%$#,it's not the CPU!!! It is the Motherboard bios chip!!! That means it's time to go looking for another machine. Looks like it will be the proverbial "Two Weeks" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
+bobrock 15 Posted August 28, 2009 I feel your pain, one of my pc died last month. I hope your data are safe, that's the only thing that really matters. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
