Windows XP: Ghost recovery abandonned. Reinstalled from scratch. Drivers installed, no updates or apps.
Ubuntu: Installed from scratch. Currently upgrading. No drivers, no apps.
Cause: Something ran FSCK or CHKDSK during a reboot in Real Mode on my hard drive. My Real Mode BIOS only thinks my 300GB hard drive is 137GB. FSCK/CHKDSK made it so and trashed the partition table. Data was unrecoverable, with a loss of one month's data and all the work on this week's comics.
Jenn: Had a nervous breakdown trying to restore from a backup that no combination of OS and Software would allow. Breakdown did not impress the roomies one bit.
Bed now.
