Why was I so blindly devoted to IBM?

[fury]

I go play with my brothers overnight and I come back and HALF OF THE DATA ON MY DRIVE IS CORRUPT!

Ugh...

What the hell?!

hack?

Crappy IBM drive.

I erased my entire drive the other day by moving the PC speaker bracket and accidentally leaving it RIGHT under my WD 15.3gb drive Lost all my recent emails I've had to redownload 33mb so far, and that still doesn't include the 50mb administrative SP2 update for OfficeXP

On the upside, I backed all my stuff up 4-5 days ago and have WinXP back up and running on the drive again Only problem is when I installed XP I didn't have my slipstreamed SP1 disc, so I'm running pre-SP1, and I've already had issues with IE6 and installing my sound drivers. Piece of crap WinXP pre-SP1!!

Cheers!

60gb 120GXP

Supposedly, the 120GXP was a bit more stable. Hell of a performer too
