Do a Backup Now! My Computer Crashed but Its Back.

[kaseydee]

My computer hard drive crashed yesterday around 3pm & by 10:30 last night I had it back!! Dell is sending me a hard drive but if my computer keeps working then I'm not switching. I did go buy ANOTHER external hard drive & backed up my whole computer last night too. I lost my original one somewhere between my house & stores.

The fix to my crash was something to do with XP cd. The error code they got was that I had uncorrectable data errors or media write is protected. Plus it said hard drive failing. So, I'm very happy that I have my computer back & EVERYONE BACK UP YOUR COMPUTER!! Learn from my stressful afternoon & late night! :angel:

Wow, that sounds like a stressful situation! I'm glad to hear that you were able to get your computer back up and running so quickly. It's always a good reminder for everyone to regularly back up their data, especially with the risk of hard drive crashes. It's great that Dell is sending you a new hard drive, but hopefully you won't need it if your computer keeps working properly. Thanks for sharing your experience and reminding us all to be proactive about backing up our computers.
