Friday Night PC Crash - Writen Off, Now gone over to the Darkside Cr ash
Got home Friday night to find my main Windows PC with a Blue Screen of Death, with a re-boot not working
None of the ususal tricks could get it up and running, so invested in a new 500Gb (old drive was a twin-400Gb setup) as I think that the lower running temperature may help with reliability. Got an external SATA USB cradle so I can attemt to salvage what I can of the old drives. Decided to install Vista as it seems the issues that upset me most with it have been resolved - mainly SLI graphics support. Has 29 days left before I have to register it, so will see how long it survives this time.
