I should be cleaning up now. Double checking everything is a good idea as well. Oh boy, this might be the last entry in here for a long while. Oh well, time for me to sign off.

What the heck's up with my connection? Seems like the nameserver doesn't know where Scienide or Sciborg are. In any case, I think I'll try again some other time.. Grr..

You're alive! Unfortunately, my computer is not. :( It died about 4 hours after you left. I managed to resurrect it - Now I've got a 4G drive that used to run NT with stuff on it that I needed (which I redid) as well as some other stuff that would be useful to have. I now know there is a difference between FAT32 and NTFS. Haaalllpppppp!

NTFS is pretty good, from my experience. What were you doing when it stopped working?

To make a long story short, the power supply fan started to hum like a chainsaw, I shut down, slid it out of the case to verify and just to see what I could see, started up the computer again (it was fine), shut it down, started it up (etc). Finally, I tried to start it up and it wouldn't. Got blue screen telling me there were problems with the NTOSKernel and physical mem dump yadda yadda. I eventually took the thing to a repair place.. they replace the power supply but couldn't get the harddrive up and running again. He asked for an emergency repair disk, but I didn't have one. He also mentioned that NT doesn't often fail, but when it does, it's hard to fix. So status remains unfixed. Was that short enough? :)

Well, it was pretty short...
Sadly, I can offer little more than my sympathy - I never make rescue disks either, and when I do, I just lose the things.. You may have to reinstall. :(
(You may still be able to save your data though - you'll have to throw your hard drive in that Linux box QYV is always going on about, and it should be able to mount the drive. Unless QYV didn't compile in the NTFS support. I'm sure he wanted to rebuild his kernel anyway, didn't you QYV?)

Erk.. NTFS support? Err..
Well, maybe if that hard drive was installed into the P133.. (It only has a 1 GB drive ATM.)
