Operating System Not Found!!

The other night I took my computer out of sleep mode and it was making a funny noise.  I thought oh I forgot to eject the disk from the software for my new small digital camera.  I ejected the disk and the screen goes BLACK!  I freaked, then any key I hit resulted in the following message.....OPERATING SYSTEM NOT FOUND!  I had to force myself not the immediately bust into tears.  There were at least 3 if not 6 months of pictures that I had not yet up loaded to http://www.snapfish.com/  or backed up onto my external hard drive.  I prayed please let the files be recoverable.  Thanks to my DH and a nephew they just put a new operating system on the computer and I am back in business.  YEA!! Those were 3 long days without my computer.  Needless to say I am busy backing up all my pics and making hard copies of them too.

  1. Ah, The dreaded Blue Screen of Death. Glad you guys were able to recover eerything! An external hard drive for backup is a good thing to have!

  2. I hate it when the PC goes on the blink...I always go into a state of panic. And yes, tears are often present too. So glad that you managed to get it fixed. Especially since you'll need to post pics of the bead soup you sent :-). I hope I'm sending enough beads too and that my partner will be pleasantly surprised with the beads.
