Oh, super.
May. 9th, 2007 04:27 pmMy home PC is still carrying on as usual - that is, CHKDISKing every time I turn it on. I haven't disabled it (although thankyou, for the instructions) cos I'd like to *know* when it's about to fall over completely.
No, instead my work computer has fallen over. It got as far as letting me enter my power on password, then informed me that it had a "Missing Operating System". Since the hard disk is encrypted, IT are having something of a challenge getting it fixed.
And so I have a stopgap machine with teeny tiny display settings that I can't change and which doesn't have the e-mail address book loaded.
Super, indeed.

louiselux picks that", and "that's been put there in the hope that
daegaer gives it a good home". It's interesting seeing which from the first round have inspired similar / possible follow ups this time, too :)
