Still not dead.

My computer, on the other hand... (Libraries are wonderful things, are they not?)

It was the memory card, apparently. The company has replaced it. With the bad memory card in, Diskwarrior stalled at 9 overlapped files. Without a card, 281 (and didn't progress after two and a half weeks of waiting). Now, with the new card, it seems stalled out at 395.

What is the point at which you say 'Fuck this,' and reformat your hard drive; or is there something else I'm missing?

If you really can't stand to lose everything and you can manage it, send it to me! I promse we'll fix it ASAP! Though we're not home for 2 more weeks... if you can send it speedy shipping, you can send it to my grandmother's place by next week.

I'm just attempting to figure out the logistics -- how to mail it, how safe mail would be, insurance... Theoretically DiskWarrior is still fixing it; I saw the status bar move a fraction the other day.

I'd also need your mailing address. ::G::

Well that's the easy part!! :P I'll send it to ya soon. If you need any help with the insurance or the heavy shipping or anything, let me know, we can totally help you out.

Yes, help. Information, please. How would one package? Who would one insure with? Can I just burn random data to cd now to back it up, and harrass my dad for my systems cd and reformat it myself?

(I gave the systems cd to him for safekeeping, as he insisted. Now he claims I never handed it over. I know that *I* don't have it...)

If I do ship it to you, it's going to be a little while. I'm kind of picking and choosing between feeding Mr. Bubbles (my guinea pig) and feeding myself at the moment...

At this point, should I just give up on DiskWarrior? I'm thinking so...
