OK, so I downloaded some files at work to make a boot disk. Got home, restored files and booted it all fine, then paid 50 bucks for a firewall, which crashed the system again. Uninstalled the firewall, it booted up OK. Then got another BSOD. Then used the boot disk again to start it up and repair more broken config files, and went into the event log. Oh no, loads of “hard disk failure” reported, even though the rest of the system says it is perfectly healthy. Then it didn’t wanna connect to the web, more config files and drivers going missing, so I reinstalled the ADSL modem and it did another BSOD when trying to reboot.
So… Either the disk is KO’d or there is a very NASTY virus on there. I’ll go with a new hard disk I think.
Sorry guys – I need a new hard drive, so Gimp-o-la-server will be down for a while…
And what’s more, I had a totally cool weekend as it was my stag do. I now have polka-dot skin after 7 hours paintballing session! Oh, and a hangover to die for

Oi, stop hijacking my thread!
Well, I set up the new computer, and set the old HDD as a slave. But it seems that everything on the old HDD's "Program Files" directory has gone AWOL, along with stacks of other stuff. So, no Q3 for a while.
I might get a chance to install it over the weekend, but then I've got to run the server again, and... OH NO... MAPS!!! ALL MY MAPS HAVE GONE!!!

At the moment working for the Small Business Service administering a scheme called the Small Firms Loan Guarantee we basically make sure the banks are doing their job right when they grant loans under the scheme. After 31/12/05 our jobs get the chop and the banks have free reign with the lending. Its gonna be interesting to see what happens then LOL

I started doing a bit of pc repair and that from home Grade but when you get some dozy fart ringing you at 11:30pm cos they can't get their email to download it kinda puts you off a bit I used to get stuff like that all the time so I called it a day.

I could imagine !!! what I will do i think is get a number from BT and a second phone put in see how it goes. But I have a bug project coming up over the next few months so just concentrate on getting the site tweeked and some advertising done.
As far as the Disk I know you dont have to use XP pro ...just makes life easier thats all
