Well,it finally happened. Something weird happened to my computer.

I went to turn it on Thursday afternoon and something beeped,then............BAM!!!!! My computer blew up right in front of my face!

I don't know how in the shit that happened. And it's a big loss for me because I ended up losing tons of files,music,e.t.c. and I've had that computer for a year and 4 months(well,until it blew up).

So,now,I'm gonna have to start over and buy a brand new one. Rats! I'll miss my old PC. It had everything. I don't know how it blew up like that.

So,just to let you all know. I won't be appearing as much now. Well,unless I use my dad's laptop or the library's computer.

Later everyone. By the time you see me again,I'll be back from London and with a new PC(my trip is this Friday).

That does suck. A year ago I was foolish enough to try to take out my secondary hard-drive while my computer was on (I was getting frustrated with turning it on and off since my jumpers weren't working.) Not un-expectantly I finally blew the thing's insides out.

On the bright side you get an excuse to get a brand new PC.

Whoa! What happened? It must be the CPU for HDD if it literally blew up. MY condolences to your PC. Forget about it for a while and enjoy your trip, though!



These things can cappen. I knew of someone whose "Quantam Fireball" HDD actually caught flame and turned into a fireball. That's when I started to use Maxtor.

Crap, my fireball is my main OS drive with all my... comics. yeah. comics.
*moves fireball away from all expensive equipment in PC case*

...quantum belongs to maxtor now tho, so they're basically the same. That's when I started to use seagate/western digital.

* Throws a bag of ice to his Quantum HDD *

Crap, this is something unusual... at lest all things can be recovered right??? Everytime my OS is in danger (quite oftenly, must I say) I almost faint on fear, all of my manga scans, all of the work of my sister (teacher), and more importantly all of the stories I have writted are there, with no means of back up; if that is lost.... my characters are my dearest thing (along my VCR that somebody broke), in some cases I have spent DAYS trying to find a perfect word for a character to use on a situation... if all of that is lost Toxico might even try to commit suicide (that's why Big Monkey Daddy is in charge, he does not freak out easily)

Oh No!

But my Maxtor.. it's so... QUIET!
Well, and my PC too. It's so quiet that I sometimes doubt that it actually has a CPU fan. Which is kinda scary. *Imagines Fireball*

I used to use Western Digital, but it kept getting bad sectors. Better than Fujitsu tho'. Never, ever get Fujitsu.

Btw, anyone use IBM HDD?

I gots an IBM lying around, used to be my main drive, but I ran out of IDE ports, and it was my smallest drive(14gb), so it had to be left out to collect dust... Think it was pretty hardy tho, although there are some horror stories of IBM drives dying quite quickly.

I've kinda got Maxtor phobia now, having heard numerous horror stories of maxtor drives failing in record time, I've got one maxtor drive... and I almost always keep it powered down unless I absolutely need to access something that's stored in there.(there's the mp3 collection that's in there... I'd cry if the drive dies on me, really.) Now my main storage reliance is on my seagate...

...come to think of it, I haven't owned two hard drives of the same manufacturer yet...

"Has anyone here heard of....." , posted Wed 3 Jul 19:46post reply


Samsung HDDs. I used to have one, legendary for it slowness and short life period, those things are crap (once I got like 30% of the disk with bad sectors).

I also heard that Soyo mother board has lost his acurracy giving a welcome to a world of doom, just has Intel did with their products, that recently have come to suck

Listen to me boys, never buy an old computer, you'll only suffer just like I am suffering now.
