    Main Cruncher Down when back from vacaton

    My main PC's HDD is on the fritz when I returned from vacation late yesterday.

    Tried my best to do a system recovery and can't even get to the partition to delete or format.
    So guess I'll do some shopping on NewEgg and see about getting online when it arrives.

    Never mind Kleinicken, the main thing is that you are up and running again. The rest will come later...

    No to hijack your thread kheinicken but I was just going to inform the team of my main going down. Hard drive crashed and burned. I have a wedding today, Father's day tomorrow so I'll be down until Monday. To use a cool word from the another topic my 'Megaday" machine is down. I'll get it running as soon as I can. Sorry guys.

    Get that MegaDay machine running again soon as you can. We're hoping to have you up on the new PG challenge!

    [I'm very glad to see my newly invented word is starting to spread, I'm so tickled!]

    .....And Don't be sorry! Hardware failures are not your fault! Just take it in stride and do what you can to get 'er fixed. That's all that's needed!

    I love your term. I've used it both here and in the chat room we have. GREAT way to describe boxen, crunchers, etc...
