Had plans to relax and chill during
easter.
I really need to wind down since I've been working with different
projects almost seven days a week since new years.
(even though I work my ass off, I'm still behind deadlines)
[A 3d-movie and a PC-game that I can't really talk about]
As soon as I got home thursday, My 250GB SATA2 started to give me broken
clusters on almost everything new that I put on it.
Yet the 200GB of data that I got stored on it has not been affected of the
clusterfuckup. So now I'm sitting and backing up my files to DVD-rs so
that I can return the drive to the shop. Thats about 35 DVD-rs that needs
to be burned.
I should have backed up sooner, but I've never gotten around to
it.
Decided to take a break after burning about 15 dvd-rs, played some HL2 that
I got on another harddrive.
Puter froze and speakers started to scream. I hit the reset button, but the
PC refused to restart unless I disconnected it from the wallsocket. So
I'm guessing that something else in my puter is broken aswell !#@
I might try to escape from my problems with some hard liquor tonight.
The following might cause you a seizure...

Thanks to Tress for giving me my journal back!
Happy easter to those of you that think that you deserve it.
See you laterz, alligators!

instead of using dvds, you could have just gotten yourself a mobile usb
hdd. bought one about a month ago, 300 gigs, it's awesome! plus i
spent only 130 euros on it
2nd that, and if you need a miracle, HDD REGENERATOR can do the job...
I've recovered the ugliest HDs that you've seen. BTW, a
second HD is the faster option.
After your backup, open up a command prompt and type:
chkdsk /R c:
(replace "c:" with the drive's drive letter). That'll
isolate and recover bad clusters. If your disk spans more than one drive,
do it for multiple ones.
