Pedro is back!!!!!!! (mas o menos)
 
Hi guys, I am back again (more or less:o) after being attacked by a monster virus (that came from a website and got passed my antivirus), my HD is all over the shop and I am now 150 dollars poorer for having to pay IT 'experts' to try and sort things out.

I have lost some stuff:mad:, and others may now be on different back-up HD's I have. Hopefully I will start my posting again soon.


I missed you all and hope you missed me ......a bit:eek:;)

Pedro, good to hear from you and sorry to hear about your problems. If I can try to make one helpful suggestion. I recently was able to get all my files off two completely dead HD's by doing the following. First, I pulled them out of the casing and hooked them up as external HD's (you can buy cheap kits for that) to another computer. Of course, the HD's were still dead, but I was able to copy all the files onto the new computer (or another external HD) using software I downloaded called "Power Data Recovery." I think it cost about $70 (there's a free trial version) but it's worth it. It has a couple modes, including one called a "deep scan" that takes about half a day but got me every single file back. And believe me, these HD's were dead, as in so dead my computer couldn't even find the drive letter without it. After my experience I would be of the opinion that if Power Data Recovery doesn't work then nothing would.

Anyway, just thought I'd lend my two cents. Good luck....

You don't use Internet Explorer, do you? If so, you should try Firefox. I am curious to which browser you were using.

There is a software tool called SystemRescueCD that can be used to image a failing hard drive to recover data.

I had a hard drive failure myself not long ago. :(

Hi guys, yes, I used IE7 when it all went wrong:mad:.

I had a back up of everything from a few months ago (but had problems re-loadig it at first due to software snags with the program for restore) and I now have my old HD as a slave and a new one fitted.

Still, my PC will not see my two year old HD (with some early stuff on) and boot up, but I have been without that for 18 months anyway. This old one, I will eventually make another remote HD. I now think I have not lost any stuff.....just money!!

Thanks for your sympathy, more posts to come over the holidays, if I can locate all my old threads:)

Welcome Back Pedro!!!!
Sorry to hear about your HD problems. I do not hope the problems were raised/made by a website that i use to visit.
And Pedro, don't forget to look at my Tunick vids, Jackass vids and beach vids threads in the rapidshare links section.
:cool:

Good to hear from you Pedro. I sympathize with your HD problems - hope the losses are minimal.

I've been off line for a couple of days due to severe storms knocking out my cable. I'll probably go down again tonight, judging from past experience, so who knows when I'll be posting again.

wish i was in Hawaii...
