Lost email addresses re crashed H/Drive.
To all my friends that I have, and still do conversed with off forum.
Please can you send me your email addresses, as My PC Hard drive crashed over 2 weeks ago.
So I am in the process of re installation with a shiny new Hard drive.
Sorry to several guys who are expecting replies. This is the only way I can think of letting you know.
Forum Members thanks for your patience and I know we all think my system is OK.
Back up that which would rather not be without.
Thanks Grizzly

Re: Lost email addresses re crashed H/Drive.
Hi Grizzly, you might want to look into setting up a mirror image as i have done. If one hard drive fails, the copy drive will keep you going. This from crash and burn experience. Of course these days, i also have an external hard-drive (Seagate 500GB) for backup of Everything as i don't want to go through the tears of loosing sooo much hard to replace information...

Re: Lost email addresses re crashed H/Drive.
Yep Mike.
I got a 500GB (external) at Christmas. I had got as far as all my archive docs,but had yet to back up Outlook.
It's a real bummer!
Has anyone discovered how to find someones v card now?

H/Drive?
That's too many HDDs
OS on c:/ drive, data in d:/ drive
Never heard a hard drive abbreviated to h/drive before.

Grizzly,
Its time to kiss outlook goodbye, open a gmail box and you never loose a thing, you can store data as well there.

Re: Lost email addresses re crashed H/Drive.
I read that about gmail as well Mike, so I have also gone back to Outlook.
Which was somewhat of a pain to set-up. But I had hard copies of the settings. Just could not understand my own writing.
I had forgotten just how much I had customized the settings. It will take a while to set everything back up.
But at least I have the forum up and running, just got to get used to the new format.
May I also say that WEBRAM's comment about the Vcard access being off is relevant.
As I cannot access most of the site users that I have cause, to contact off forum from time to time.
I guess the pm system will have to do for the time being.
For those that have contacted me with their emails, thanks my friends!

Re: Lost email addresses re crashed H/Drive.
Well Well,Crashed and burned AGAIN!!! I caught some serious bugs that snuck by and trashed my system. Mirror image hard drive just copied the buggers and backup saved them for future distruction. Norton anti-virus was on leave as it was slowing down my computer, so now we start again, picking up the pieces of what was able to be saved.. Ho Hum.

Re: Lost email addresses re crashed H/Drive.
Thanks Grizzly, I looked over my words of wisdom, back on post #2. Just goes to show how bullet proof we think we are. The computer tech keeps telling me that i take too many risks, especially when logged on as administrator...Mike.
