Okay looks like it's my turn to start kicking my computer. It won't turn on at all. My brother is gonna take a look at it for me, and if he can't fix it I'll take it in to the shop.
So this means that I am borrowing my daughters laptop. So I will have limited access. Mainly I won't be on msn much, and I can't access any of my stories or artwork. $%#%$%.
But anyway, I'm not kicking anything yet. I'm not sure how long it will be till it's fixed.

Well, my brother took a look. He thinks my hard drive is going bad, which means it's going into the shop tomorrow. I'm pretty sure it's still under warranty. Which means a full wipe of the entire hard drive.
But I am smart. I have an external hard drive which holds all my music, pictures, and stories, and it even has a complete backup of my internal hard drive. So I won't lose anything. Now the only problem I have is that I can't find the two disks that go with my external hard drive, and you need them to restore everything after you replace the hard drive. So I'm assuming the gremlins have been up to thier old tricks and have snatched those discs. But I'm gonna go tear my bedroom apart till I find them. So I'm off to create a tornado in my bedroom.
Later guys and gals.

lol! Well, let's see....*counts on fingers* Only four of our eight family members (unless we've adopted more lately), so...the gremlins don't seem to have any particular order they want to work in, so you might be next Ark. o.o
But then there's Wirr (I don't think she's had any problems), Idril, you Ark, and Mage. Al's had some problems, right? Anyway. But God forbid any of you guys have compy problems. It sucks.
But that's good you pretty much know what's wrong, it can be fixed, and you won't lose anything, M. o.o Hopefully things'll get working soon!

Well I'm praying it's just the Hard Drive. I have a three year warranty on it. If it's the motherboard or the processor, I'm sunk. I only have a one year warranty on them and it was up three months ago. I never found those discs, and I looked everywhere. So tomorrow I have to call the company that I got the ext hard drive from and see if they can send me replacement disks. If not I'll have at least 20 programs that I have to find and download, plus two movies that I didn't get burned onto dvd yet, and at least 100 sites in my favorites that I'll have to find and bookmark again. Ughh, this is not good. I have to get those discs.
And ark, don't hold your breath that you won't be next. I was almost sure I wouldn't have any problems.
