*Hissss!*

So, I was happily working on my homework. Guess what! My computer crashed! (I'm typing this from Enki.) Upon restart, \winnt\system32\drivers\isapnp.sys was missing or corrupt.

I could, of course, repair from the original CD, though...

...except for the message that filesetupdd.sys could not be loaded. The error code is 4. Cannot continue. Press any key to exit.

...on both the original product recovery CD and the burned backup.


Called Evil; got Malfoy Senior, who asked me if I'd done a backup recently.

I laughed at him. He scolded me.

Actually, everything on there is backed up. It's just that installing everything takes such a long time... I would have to rewrite a few pages of my book...and oh shit, I would have lost...

Nevermind.

But some of the things are backed up. The important thing, my book, is backed up to fairly recent.

I'm just stressed. Malfoy Senior said that he'd have Darkside call back.

Meanwhile, I think I'll prepare to call Dell.

Gods, this is going to be a long night.

Thankfully, my homework was on the zip disk, and already got e-mailed to Bird.
