I just lost ALL my Anime on my first drive! 40 GB is gone!!! I idiotically let Fix-It Utilities clean up unecessary files and it cleaned out my Anime and JDrama… which I left in the Temp folder!!! WHY?????????????????????!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I’d have to download it from Streamload, because I can’t get them from BT anymore…
Do you have something called “Go Back”?? Its a part of Norton. Or if you have WinXP, I believe there’s also a function to revert your hard drive back to … a certain point. ;__; That’s kinda bad.
No, the sad thing about both the Norton Restore and WinXP’s Restore is the fact that it only reverts your system files back to a restore point, not any personal data you may have had. The only way I could recover those files is to take it to a hard drive specialist in the city, but they charge thousands of dollars for that because they’re basically doing a sector by sector copy of the drive and rebuilding a new NTFS/FAT table. Usually, this method is only used for highly secure files like government or barrister records. First of all, I’m no lawyer, and second, I don’t have that kind of money, sad to say.
It’s kinda ironic… I fix computers for so many people, but I can’t even fix mine correctly because I make stupid, rash decisions without thinking them through.
oh boy that sure stinks. When I lost my hard drive a year and a half ago I cried. YUP. Cried…
