CHR back in business. Another HD down.
Well, it turns out there was another HD failure. This time it was one of the boot disks. Used the spare drive I bought last time around, reinstalled the OS and all of the necessary software to get the site back up and running, and here we are.
Lesson. I think I'm done purchasing 15k rpm HD's. Fast, but they don't seem to be so reliable.
Anyways, it's been a lot of late nights lately, and I hope we're through the storm. Next plan is to buy replacement drives all around to put off some of the troubles we've been seeing.
Sorry for the inconvenience folks.Brent Mills

It's much easier to promise someone a "free" ride on the wagon than to urge them to pull it.

I feel for you. A few years ago, my 'puter blew up. Like, boom! Smoke and flame and all that. Not a darn thing salvageable. Luckily, my brother had just put everything important on a disc. Whew!

Good to be back to normal.
Instead of being part of the problem, be part of a successful solution.

I don't think we are totally back to normal Bill. Still can't post any pictures.
Has anyone else tried posting one?

Same thing I get, with same pictures and procedure I've used a million times. Something is still not fixed.

The last couple of weeks have been spent waiting on parts and getting the engine ready to put in the car. I found a manifold (turned out the guy I bought the center sump oil pan from had one). It’s...
