You know it's one of those days when you start your day an hour late because your alarm was turned off, and what wakes you is your boss calling you. Follow it up with getting stung by a wasp while at work, and the boss yelling at you and screwing up your schedule, and by the time you get home all you want to do is relax and forget the whole day.
I personally was hoping to escape into Cyrodiil or play some Alpha Protocol after buying it for a cheap $3.99 the night before.
So I whip out the old laptop and press the power button to bring it out of hibernation. I get a black screen informing me that windows can not be resumed from its last state due to an error of some kind.
I hit enter, the computer restarts and I get a window informing me that windows did not start properly. I'm given the option to either Start windows normally or run Windows repair. I choose start Windows normally and actually get into my user, but everything is running extremely low, even simple tasks like opening the start bar, so I tell the computer to restart, and Windows fail to load the second time around. Things aren't starting to look good.:o
Computer restarts for the 3rd time and I get the option to run the Repair or start windows normally, hoping it's not too late I opt for the repair option. I get a bar loading the necessary files, and then an hour of just black screen. Several restarts later I don't even get the bar anymore. My computer is gone.
I'm hoping it's just a OS problem, and that my hard drive hasn't failed. I'm about to put in a Windows 7 cd and I hope that I can repair the problem with the disk just so I can get my important information out.
Either way I'm going to do a fresh install of windows(hard drive allowing), but it's going to suck losing my music and other important files. :damn:
Wish me luck.
