dolariWhat a wierd night.
IF you hate hearing about geeky technical stuff, you might wanna skip down to the [HEY, I'M DONE PART]. Otherwise, welcome to the wonderful world of self-technical support.
Someone, somewhere, build a hard drive with no errors. PLEASE.
Lately it's been givving me problems. A nice big CLICK and then two seconds later it picks up like nothing happened. And then all day I was getting boot up errors - magically dissapearing files that would mysteriously come back after a reboot, Windows needed to be rebooted six or seven times a day. Nasty blue screen errors.
So I said ENOUGH! It took me four hours and seven CDs, but I backed up all of my important files (which thankfully had all appeared this last reboot).
FDISK, Format, Reinstall, Doo-daa, Doo-daa.
Made an emergency archive of so I don't need to reinstall Windows again (Just unpack the archive, and we're off).
What's wierd is after the FDISK, and a full format, all the bad sectors ont he disk dissapeared, and the machine is working better than ever.
Wierdness.
[HEY, I'M DONE PART]
It was a very fitful sleep...I went to bed late, 5AM. I know I was still awake around 6AM when the rain started. I've always loved the sounds and smells of rain. But something went wrong.
I had a terrible dream, and when I woke up, my jaw was killing me. I felt like I needed to pry my jaws open. Fell back asleep, and woke up at 2PM...but I feel like I've gotten no sleep at all.
That dream really freaked me out.
Right now Big Brothers and Big Sisters is sponsoring a showing of La Bamba...considering how they portray Richie Valens's big brother, you'd think they'd have picked a better movie. :)
