Attention opponents: Thor computer woes! - Thor - 07-30-2006 Guys, My desktop has been down all week with hard drive failure, so appologies to those waiting on turns. Dell "El Salvador" spent three one hour sessions on the phone with me and then called back to give me their expert advice: "Take your machine to a local computer store and have them retrieve all your files from your hard drives. We think your HDs are bad and we will have to replace them and do a complete reinstall of Windows XP" (thus oblitorating three years worth of records of my life -- all the photos, installed software, downloaded purchased software, endless Microsoft upgrades . . . you get the picture.) Wonder if that new Apple will actually runWindows as claimed? :chin: Losing my patience with Gates and Dell. :mad: I will get turns out to solo and team opponents as soon as I can and request your patience gentlemen. Regards, Thor RE: Attention opponents: Thor computer woes! - Dogovich - 07-30-2006 HP makes a pretty good machine. RE: Attention opponents: Thor computer woes! - Herr Straße Laufer - 07-30-2006 I have HP also and love it! :) Not a big fan of the Mac. RE: Attention opponents: Thor computer woes! - Huib Versloot - 07-31-2006 Well they all use the same brands of Hard drives: Maxtor, Western Digital, Seagate, Samsung etc. Doesn't matter what PC you have; one is always at risk of a damaged Dard Drive. I keep an extra external Harddrive as a back up for my most important files, docs, photos and scenario designs ofcourse.
