waider | hard drive update (Reply)

Well, the drive spent the night in the freezer. After a bit of goofing around with various boot disks, I managed to get it up and running long enough to save my home directory, at which point it clunked again. Then I got it actually booted, but it clunked while I was trying to dump the main partition. Finally I got it booted into Win2K, but it clunked shortly after I logged in. I've put it back in the freezer again and I'm going to give it one more go - I really want to try and save the Win2K partition, since I've got some good game saves there - and then it's back to the suppliers to see if their warranty works.
