Thanks Andy. Yea, I agree there, that we get hit in bunches. Hard drives just
don't seem to like me.

> LOL then I always knock on my forehead!!
> I've had 2 computers with power supplies that went - current one and the
old e-machine - that basically burned the computer - we were able to salvage
the hard drive though. It wasn't the original e-machine hard drive - my son
is still using it in his computer. I think it is a Maxtor - and the one I
use now is a Maxtor - Of course, like Rick says - now, I'll be waiting for
it to die!!
> and I am just a novice - buy the one on sale that I can afford. Back then,
I didn't even realize that hard drives had speeds....
It seems to me that we all have something with our PC's which tends to
afflict us in bunches that doesn't happen to other people. Mine seems to be
Modems failing on me...I must have gone through 5 or 6 modems in a couple of
years-and all on my home PC's, not the one in my office.
Then you come across machines that are just jinxed. My friend has one of
those...He's not that tecchie, and I help him out whenever I can-and even
the simplest task often turns into a major trauma. Recently, he bought a CD
writer and asked me to install it for him..I put the drive in, all went
fine..came to install the software- software I've installed countless times
on my own systems..and it threw the whole of the machine into a hissy fit
which took HOURS to fully sort out.
I'm convinced there are little men sat in his PC looking at me and going
'Right, let's screw around with this idiot's mind' every time I approach his
PC.
Cheers
Andy
