My computer’s been spending more time in the shop than on my desk lately. This time, the E: drive was fried.
No great thing, you say? Just one thing: I had Net Nanny installed on that drive. And when that drive fried, that meant that I couldn’t connect to the Internet. At all.
It took a full reformat and reinstall of Windows XP to clear the problem. Now I’m reinstalling programs…most of my programs. I can’t say “all of my programs,” since I had a lot of stuff on C:. Some of it probably useless, I’ll admin, but…!
I believe the appropriate phrase from the Litany of the Saints is “Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us….”
Hopefully, though, I’ll be able to get back in world tonight…and actually with a leaner machine than I had before. That may be one good thing from this fiasco.
