...hands of Compaq. I hoped you kissed it good bye before you let it go...

Thanks, CapK. This may become the thread WW and I'd hoped it'd be, yet.

Well, given that the hard disk drive and/or power supply appear to have completely given up the ghost, the kiss of life would have been the most appropriate. Couldn't find the appropriate orifice - or didn't recognise it if I did. I leave that kind of thing to the more physiologically unchallenged members of the board ...

Capital K: I can commiserate... My laptop is also in the hands of Compaq with all the graduate work I've done this fall on the desktop. I do not expect the technicians to save the work once they get the blooming thing to work again even though I wrote them a special request. I can hear them laughing out loud as they read my little note:

"Please try to save all the work on the desktop. It represents all of my studies this fall."

They'll rub their hands together, laugh ghoulishly, and draw straws for who gets to dump it first.

Anyway, thanks for the links. Sorry that your computer's in the shop.
