Trouble.....

May 2, 2003 7:20 AM from

I seem to be one hard-drive short.
C is XP OS
D is XP OS backup [swappable caddies]
J is new data backup....160gig [was hearing 'noises' from the other backup]
H is old data backup....except it ain't there.....

Mucho stuff....like a few work files not burned....
All the games....
...and those things you know you'll miss months later when you can't find them...

Looks like I'm gonna be a bit busy for a while....

So that poor old drive was getting blamed for nothing then?

Thanks, Richard....

Crae, no...a head-crash locked the system while reading/writing to the drive. The only way out was a hot reboot, and I'm betting the Outlook config files were accessed/being written to at that instant and were corrupted.
System freezes do all sorts of fun things.
With mine it was losing Outlook...

Hmm, you'd think you'd find Scandisk running after that reboot then. But anyhow, good that it is solved.
