It's Over

Well boys and girls, it looks like the notebook computer I have been using for almost two and a half years straight is just about ready to die.

Today I got the VERY dreaded “Operating System Not Found” warning when I came out of a suspend. This is not good boys and girls, not good at all… it is usually the first sign of a failing hard drive. Then today, just as I finished posting m last post… my wi-fi went out. I mean it went out hard. It is a built in adaptor, so I can get a plug in card, but this is not good. So right now I am on cat5, thank god that works.

So, as I am typing this I am transferring all my data to another computer in expectation of a crash. The really worst part is all the software on this computer. I have bought most of it, but since my break up I do not have the original disks to re-install on another computer. I need to make an image of this computer and transfer EVERYTHING to a new computer.

I am going to check for virii, but I got a feeling that will not help. This does not feel viral…

And, so everyone know, I do not have the cash for a new notebook right now, this site has drained me of the fundage. [Tongue and cheek] Anyone got a brand new Sharp MV12P, MM20P or some other Ultra Portable? [/Tongue and Cheek] So I go looking and hoping that I can find anything that will suit me. (Fast, 1gig ram, 15in display, DVDrw, 802.11g, multimedia, XPpro, etc.. etc...)

I guess I am spoiled, I always bought the best I could when I could, but now… damn. All I can do is wait for the crash… it is coming....

Yep... this computer is about to take a dump... The Wifi was up and down while I D/L 2GB of data to a desktop. Not good... The HD was straining, and the screen is starting to fade... Death is near for this workhorse of a computer.
