Ding, dong, the Bush gone… well, almost. Not been posting much. Sorry! We went out to eat two nights in a row, but not tonight, because it snowed today. Still working on Eric’s computer.
To gain control over the failed drive I put it in an external PATA-to-USB case I saved after the 80 GB drive in it failed, not too long after I copied everything on it to a 160 GB USB drive, that has already been replaced with a 500 GB drive. I ran CHKDSK on the drive and it fixed a bunch of index errors. Then booting into safe mode I took ownership of all the folders of interest and I got everything worth getting off it, but I’ll still probably junk the drive, because it’s five years old. I’ll make the 2-year-old 200 GB D: drive the primary and install XP on that.
That’s right, you got the “Alberta Clippah” as they say in Beantown. Hmm, I’m getting curious about your new masthead. Looks like Mary Bailey has gone bad and is finally having an affair with some guy named “Will.” Well, at least it’s not Sam Wainwright. Hee-Haw and HAPPY NEW YEAR! It can only go up from here!
