PC update. Again, I have seen the face of death. And it was blue. Then... it went away! I have since restarted this computer no less than three times with zero difficulties. No noises, no problem. Ran some hard drive diagnostics and it seems to have passed with flying colors. Of course, I am taking my sweet frakking time re-installing all my shit. Plus, there are a few things [like my music] that I haven't dared to check to make sure are backed up on my external. I'm almost positive I set up iTunes to back it up there, but I'm not entirely sure. I think I'll save that disappointment for another day. Sad about all my playlists though. Boo.

Dude, what in the world is with your darn computer?! SO weird. And frustrating.
My fingers (and toes and eyes) are crossed for your music to be backed up. :(

Well the blue screen was last night when I first started re-starting for installations. And now it hasn't done it since then, so I'm hopeful. I tried to get Roman to watch the first ep of The Pacific with me but he said he'd rather to crossword puzzles. LOL.

Okay.

Also, I called you. There's a surprise for you on the internet. (Isn't there always?)

Ugh, blue screen of hell. I hope that your music made it through!!

I hope so too. I'll probably check it later tonight.

Playlists can be recreated. As long as everything else is fine. I'll cross my fingers for you, doll.

Try Windows Defender? My friend was getting blue screens a lot. She gave up. Bought a new computer. But heck, when I was over I used her old one. Poor computer. Ran a full scan with Windows Defender and she hasn't reported a blue screen since. Hopefully blue screens can really go away? Maybe!

Can't hurt and might help. *crosses fingers for you and computer*

If you need any help getting music back or anything, I'm here. Let me know.

Glad it seems like it's getting better-ish.

Oi, that blows. I hope you don't lose anything. ♥
