Don't you just love yourself on days like that? I'm still remembering the last time the power went out and my UPS continued supplying power to the computers but not the monitors. Since the network hub wasn't getting power, I couldn't log in from elsewhere in the house. So genius me decides to move one of the monitor plugs over, figuring I'll have *just* enough juice to see what I'm doing for ten seconds...except of course when I plugged the monitor in, the sudden surge it required to power up sucked every last bit of power, and I had not one, but TWO systems suddenly die without being properly shut down. I didn't touch any computers for the next 24 hours, until I could trust myself to touch a keyboard without my hands shaking with rage ( ... )

Yikes! Don't you hate when stuff like this happens? Something so apparently insignificant and it has all these knock-on effects and before you know it you're rebuilding the whole thing from scratch and kicking yourself for tinkering.

Or at least that's what I do!

Well, at least you know what it is now.

The upload didn't take so I'm going to have to do a little more investigation I think. Nothing's lost though, I just can't get it to connect properly - and like I say, I don't have a huge amount of time to spare for it tonight so I've put up a placeholder page for the moment.

*fingers crossed* it shouldn't take too much to fix.

I hope it's easily fixed, too!
