Catastrophe

There goes my hard drive. I’m posting this from one of the other 63 computers in the house, but my boot partition just went tits up. It went without warning, while surfing the web. I tried to rescue the data but I kept getting blue screens of death during copying. I have reformatted it and SpinRite says it’s absolutely fine, but Windows refuses to copy to the thing, and I’m getting bad cluster reports from Bart PE. Norton is officially useless. I suspect it’s the drive’s controller, which means, new drive. And get the other two partitions off there — that’s music and games.

I took today off to make up for the fact that I was going to be on the road on Kat’s birthday. We are spending the day together doing whatever she wants. I’m hoping she wants to buy a hard drive and reinstall Windows.
