My lovely, loveable laptop has died. The hard drive has completely failed. If I take it in, they should be able to recover some of my data. But i don't have the necessary equipment to do it at home.

This is worrisome become I haven't backed up my computer since mid-May. Stupid, I know. Bye-bye updated resumes, cover letters, proof of job ( Read more... )

computer, grumbling, rant

*pats* Could be worst. At least it's no more than a month lost... *cringes* Hope you'll be back and with a spiffy computer (old and repaired or new) soon!

Yup, it definitely could be a lot worse! I'm so thankful I have any backup at all.

I'm afraid this has put a screeching halt to the screening/recing I was doing, though. Grrr!!

*pats* It'll probably be there when/if you're ready again--given *all* the shorfics I have to get through. I'll save up the novels and epics for you! *grins*

I'm sosososososoososo sorry. I hate it when technology fails us. I had the hard drive on my mac fail about 6 months after I got it. (My friend's daughter tripped over the cord and it fell on the floor). I lost all my education word from the first 2 years in that accident. And in my case it couldn't be recovered. :( I'm glad yours can at least. And that you were wise enough to back it up. :)

I keep realizing more and more things that I've lost if my data ends up being unrecoverable. I'm just so frustrated over the whole thing! But your situation sounds WAY worse, so in a sick way, it actually makes me feel better, lol!

Dang. That really blows. I'm crossing my fingers that you can get it all back and have the lap top up and running again in a timely manner.

I'm glad my pain made you feel better. Here's something else that might make you feel better - even after all the report card comments I wrote today I somehow feel like writing so right now I'm working on my next DW fic... It involves a remote control and several mishaps... *giggle*
