FS2004 - Swapmeister PC problems

[rb608]

No big deal, I expect; but I'm having a chronic problem w/ the PC that keeps
giving me a BSOD with the message "Error writing to Drive C:" . I'm no
expert, but I think that's a bad thing. Anyhoo, it's going up to the
fixer-upper folks today (under warranty), & I'll be offline until whenever.
So if you don't hear from me that your flies have arrived, that's why.
Don't panic. I should be back soon with a long list of arrivals.

YOMAS,
Joe Fleischman

Don't you think thant's a clever question while Joe was writing "Anyhoo,

I have a legal copy of XP home version for you if you want it. It's old, all
most a beta version, so it will need (or should have) updates, but the price is
right (free). I'm in OC, so contact me by email if interested.

Hah. Back already. I have a lot of software installation to do; but all of
the good data was scraped off the old dead HD. I think I was lucky, 'cause
it made really bad noises when it finally died. Since I'd crashed only two
months earlier too, there really wasn't that much new stuff. It seems all
of the weirdness I'd been experiencing could well have been a result of a
progressive failure of the drive; but just the same, as long as I was
getting work done, I upgraded to XP Home & replaced the old 8 GB drive with
120 Gig.

As far as that long list of FS2004 package arrivals, well, I just plugged
this sucker in about an hour ago. I'll get to it soon (there's 8 of 'em).

Back in business,
Joe F.
