Apologies are not needed, Bill.
We are just happy that it was only equipment malfunction and nothing very serious.
Glad you are back!:wave:

ditto JoeZ. Do you have a pancake "monkey motion" hard drive, or is it inline? LOL Maybe it just needs new brushes......

Maybe a furr ball?

Bill , maybe you need one of those A/FX Four gear specialty hard drives?!! Glad you are ok man.

hey bill didnt seem to work badly at all on the fri nite chat must be the driver!! glad you came back after collecting all those steeleys!!

If you store alot of info in your "my Documents" an have 2 hard drives in your pc, here is one way to save them on a second drive that is less used then the OS drive, right click on "My Documents" an select properties, then on that you will see a "Target Folder Location" select move. Browse to your second hard drive an select it an hit "OK" it will move your "My Documents" folder to that second drive that is less used, It may take a bit to move it all but it is WORTH moving. If your pc main drive crashes or goes bad, all your documents are saved on the second drive

Smoke signals - don't you know the wind is blowing southeast?

Went to back up: I pulled on my emergency tin can and the string went slack. You need to re-tie your end? Gotta maintain the infrastructure, man!

Maybe a furr ball?

With a huge fat squirrel-like cat, furr ball is an understatement, furr coat is more like it.
Bills cat could feed half Ethiopia. lmao

YEAH, what HT said. ;)

Losing a drive is a ____. Been there and don't want to do it again. :freak: rr

What you need for home use is an automatic backup solution that saves the base image and incremental changes to an external USB, Firewire, or network drive. On the PC side one of the best backup solutions for home users is Acronis True Image. On the Mac, nothing beats Time Machine, which an amazing piece of work. Anything that requires the user to initiate the backups is going to be less reliable than an automatic backup solution. With 500 GB external drives less than $120 backing up has never been easier or cheaper.

Norton Ghost is anouther good back up, been using it for years, back in the day it was free
