My primary machine at home had a hd fail. I haven't backed anything up from it, but used it as a server backup device. When I added the drive and did the upgrade to Vista it rewrote the boot sector on my XP drive so I can't revert to it. I just discovered the Sony DVD burner is toast so I can't do an upgrade on the XP drive. Compared to the deep stuff Bob has been wading through my problems are nothing. I have been using a server as a workstation for the time being until my new drive and optical device come in. My question is this? Why is it the newest drive that failed? The eight year old drives on my oldest server at home are still going strong.
