Another HD crash!

Well, I guess I should have known it was time to get another hard drive when the last one crashed.  It ran about a week and had the same problem again.  I think the drive had a problem and I will replace it and start over again.  I have enjoyed my new iPOD and I am glad I updated to the new one.  Of course my daughter is glad also that I upgraded, because she got my old one for $100.  Now that's a sweet deal!  I have been trying to get my server up and going without much success.  I have a server that was given to me and it runs on Server 2000 and I have the disks, but have no admin password to get back in the system.  So it looks like I will be formatting and loading Windows server to get the thing up and going again.  It's an old system, but it will work just fine for what I want to use it for.  That's about it for now.

Recovering from multiple HD failures.

Well, as I have said before there are two types of computer users...those tht have had hard drive failures..and those that will. After 6 years of one of my computers running non stop, Windows got stupid and could not find it's self. The day before the crash i had copied all my photos to another drive on another computer and the very next day the HD crashed. It' s all up and running again, but the computer that Becky uses at the studio decided to do the same thing. That was not as easy of a fix. after about 8 hours of placing programs back on and loading pre-sets we werre back up and running. Got to get some serious hard drive back up of some sort.
