The C: Drive is failing guys, so I am leaving the system OFF until I go out and buy a new Harddrive today or tomorrow. I don't think anything is hurt, It boot and works, it just freezes after a few hours and you hear the drive squeek. [img]smile.gif[/img]

I'll See if Bestbuy is open today. [img]smile.gif[/img] But for most of today, and MAYBE tomorrow, EFU is down.

PS: The patch is ok too-- I moved all those files to my server. just incase...

Could have been a bad ribbon.. This DID just happen after I cleaned it.. so I hope its the ribbon. I am on my personal PC now, and no probs yet. [img]smile.gif[/img]

STILL... backing up everything. [img]smile.gif[/img]

Well, still doing fine.. no lockups.. SO I will put up the EFU Server for now.


I'll keep ya updated!

ouch.
how big is the current drive you have going there and whom is it made by? (the one where you have the module situated.)
oh, and are you still within warranty?

Gulp.

May have to find something something else to do in the evenings for a while then.

Is that what happened last night? It crashed on us about 11 or so last night (east coast time).

All is well. The ribbon was bad. I need to change over to sata drives... nice, small wires.. [img]smile.gif[/img]

Anyway, I have like 20 billion IDE ribbons, so no prob! thank tymora. [img]smile.gif[/img]

Sounds like my good friend, Crazy. He even has SCSI drives from back when we first met (1994) that still work. Seriously, if there's a computer part that exists that was any good, he probably has it, had it, or is getting it, or has heard of it and has thought of acquiring it. What can I say? If it wasn't for his knowledge and genius, I wouldn't even be online here to be honest with you.

So, how are the S-ATA drives doing? I was thinking of moving to those soon enough, actually. More than likely when I purchase a new HDD (160+ GB), it'll be using the S-ATA stuff. I may even try to simply move everything over to the S-ATA drive off the bat and then reformat the drive I have now a few times before placing it into yet another computer. I was thinking of having a "regular" machine going and a "gaming" machine for the first time ever. Greedy, I know, but as my computing desires have changed ever so slightly, I may want to have that "extra" machine around just in case of graphic and terminal failure.

Extra computers are overrated...they make you have to have other places set up to have them set up, and you run out of room in the house...

And heat the room like crazy. [img]smile.gif[/img]


I have nearly all my old PC parts.. an old Pentium 60 (the first Pentium) and a 166Mhz system (was badass then, with 128mb ram!) [img]smile.gif[/img]

I even keep the original boxes-- I have the original Sound blaster v1.0 card and box--works and the box is perfect looking.. lol! prolly worth something now! HAHAH!

I have like 10 hard drives--old, and most have bad sectors, or are like 60mb - 800mb.. [img]smile.gif[/img] But most are bootable, but fail or lock/click when they get warmed up.. I know.. I should chuck em... [img]smile.gif[/img]
