I'm hating computers.

Post by Sarge 1/68th Armor »

Ad my primary drive died. I was scrambling for a spare. The only one that finally worked was from my weenie net book. I took the load like a trooper. Last five days. 38 hours file transfers, 57,000 pics (friggin wife). Then my secondary gave me the bootmgr image corrupt shit. Then it did it to three more drives. I'm surprised there is not a new gapping hole in my man cave. After a day of constant partitioning, new volumes and them thar long ass 3tb formatting. Had to install the os three times and had to format yet again during the install and bam. Os is on the main drive now but I just lost recognition of secondary. Its crazy and I refuse to pay. If they can do it, so can Army. Lot of reading. Hopefully end of day will be good to go. Had to delay my ssd because of this but should get it soon. I thought Tuck had it bad, but its just a scratch on a shin compared to this crap. :P
Anyway, thats why no tk'ing in game. Now to transfer crap back and download bf3.

They were on a external. One of my 2tb externals is now my towers op sys. I upgraded to another 3tb 3.0. Its just a pain. Just killed two birds, one stone. Maxed out storage, upgraded. Crashed HDD, swapped out. Should be up by this afternoon. Bang bang Boom boom. Ssd next. And then WD Black HDDs.

Sarge!!! You must have angered the computer gods. I highly recommend Sacrificing 3 Zima’s, 2 Thumb drives, and 1 home brewer to them in home of gaining their favor again. Or else yer hosed . :o :o :o :o
