[Manikular]

FUCKING thing...

please make backups people..

i'm gutted mate!

nevermind... i still have all my samples on cds.... boh!

[coombz]

[Manikular]

things happen for a reason dude... and i think the reason is that i could really do with a 9600 160gig motherfucker with 16meg cache... yes yes..

but i am a little bit gutted... not becuase of loss of audio, but more becuase all my tax stuff is on there and i have to sort that out like yesterday... what a total nightmare! hehe

i hate IT

i get 13 random boxes come up EVERY time i start my pc up...

one of which tells me to restart my for some reason, and if i click ok it restarts... then it appears again as if i dint just o what it asked

i hate computers and the wonderfull world of IT

dude, if you really need stuff of it, it can be saved by getting an identical drive, and swapping the platters over.. thats unless its the surface thats fucked, of course...
never tried it meself, but heard it can work (some doctor type got 2 years of research back that way apparently)
I only know coz i askwd me it dept. how to fix me mates hard drive, but it was old and i couldn't find one to match (and he only wanted his porn back, anyways)

this sounds familliar... wait... of course... it happened to me twice !!!!

if anyone on here appreciates what you're going through re: losing production it's me, and I'm sorry for you :(

i backed up my tunes and samples but not regularly enough, had to revert back to month old .flp files, i was f*ckin p*ssed let me tell you... :(

it's a test from the almighty... you pass the test by, um, not commiting suicide (!?)

[Manikular]

ok *update*

hard drive is totally shagged... had a new one put in...

so my current pc is "fresh"

true

it was my pc... and loosing EVERYTHING you'd spent ages downloading, making, grapihics i lost, programs i lost is a bit of a cunt to you know

its fruity loops that does it i swear to god!

[Blerg]

or the fact its a cracked fruity loops. if i was a designer that as racking in the royaltys i would put some sort of hidden bug doda that activates if the prog has been craked or whatever that is not known about that fucks stuff up. like a mini i hate you you pirate scum virus. but im glad thats proberly not true and its just as well as i use a few progs along those lines.... and its not like im downloading drum and bass 24/7 (as long as the pc doesnt fook up)
