Captain's Log: Supplemental
May. 9th, 2006 10:39 amHouston....we have a solution.
I spent some time on the phone with Gateway this morning. They were very nice and very helpful. The computer is in fact in warranty so I am covered. Blessed be. They are going to send a new hard drive and I will get it within two days. They think I should be able to install it myself. *snort* I will have my geek friend help me with it.
In the meantime I am going to try and recover more files off of my old hard drive. I will have to reload the software from a recovery disc that I have and all that.
All is not lost but I am losing data. Music files and photographs. Oh well. Luckily I have all those photos at work and can put them on a disc. So those are recoverable.
I will be running on KNOPPIX for a while...so if I am slow, that is why.
Kill my hard drive, kill my hard drive....
